    I wanna put a normal plate a car; say for example one with EU plates only.

    I edited the text, replaced "Front EU License Plate", with "Front License Plate". Didnt work, I thought the game would register being a normal square plate. I heard I have to use Jbeam editor. Would that be true?

    I do add the Jbeam file, add it in the sub folder. The thing is, the license plate still has the EU style. I dont want that.
    How does one change that? I renamed the mesh name without "EU", but nothing

    Please take a look at the newly added license plate documentation: https://documentation.beamng.com/modding/vehicle/sections/licenseplates/
    In order to add a US license plate based on an EU variant, you need to change the flexbody name to "licenseplate" and the "licenseplateFormat" property to "30-15" (which is the default value, so you can delete that modifier completely as long as it doesn't cause issues). After that just tweak the position and possibly rotation with the modifiers in Flexbodies section.
