i was editing a map that I was going to make and then the whole part went black. I don’t know what happened, could i have possible turned off some sort of shader --- Post updated --- Possibly*
I can still see all of my progress. But it is super dark. I’ve reloaded the level 3 times --- Post updated --- i cleared cache and all my progress disappeared
Well yes, your progress are stored in the cache. If you clear it, you clear your progress too. That's why I did not mention clearing cache anywhere :\ Check in Documents/BeamNG.drive for a 'backup' folder, chances it that your progress just got moved. For the actual issue, sounds like your level has been badly messed up. Hard to say what in particular without an actual look to it.
