    I don't know what to try anymore. I had tried out the BeamMP mod and it was working alright. I uninstalled it nevertheless for some reasons.
    Now, my game won't start up. I can start the launcher from steam and launch the game, but then I get stuck in the loading screen from there on with the screen blacking out, being half broken or showing the loading bar. I cannot get to the Home screen even after letting it sit for half an hour.
    I have looked at this https://www.beamng.com/threads/fixed-game-loading-issues-12-06-2020.71491/ thread since this seems to be the same problem, however I don't have any folder Documents\BeamNG.drive\...
    I tried re-installing the game, verifying it's file integrity by steam and the launcher itself and I have looked through the game files whether I had mods or anything still installed. Nothing.
    Attached is the screen that I'm basically stuck in only it blacking out every once in a while.

    It appears that you have Windows 10, with the OneDrive integration enabled.

    That could be an issue, as the game is trying to use OneDrive/Documents/BeamNG.drive as your Userfolder, to store your personal game files as well the cache.

    Please try choosing a different location for your Userfolder.

    To do so, use the Launcher > Manage Userfolder > Change Location, and then selecting a different folder that does not require special permissions (for example C:\BeamNG.drive)

    So I finally managed to fix the issue. I had to disable syncinc with OneDrive (which Micrsoft is making very hard for you...), had to get rid of every single file left of the game and then reinstall it. It is working now, thank you very much. Would've been a shame after over 600h...
