    Seems like i no longer can edit my first post in this thread.

    https://beamng.com/threads/graphics-mod-alternative-lighting.60343/

    It now has faulty info and that cant be corrected. Any of the devs know why or am i just plain stupid looking for the Edit-button (its not next to the Report button, although it is on other, newer threads).

    Cheers!

    Most likely because it's an older post (idk why you cant edit your old posts but whatever)

    idk why they changed it but it seems like a bit of a silly decision to prevent you from updating a post after a certain amount of time

    Yeah, I went to edit the incredibly outdated original Kashira post a couple days ago, and found that I was no longer able to edit it. I'm not sure if this is intended or a weird forum glitch, but it is very problematic to modders who use the first post to give a general idea of what has been finished and still needs to be done for WIP mods. I've not seen any official comments on this, so I'm inclined to think the forums just bugged out somehow, but I'm hoping it gets fixed soon, because I edit my old mod posts a lot.
