    Hi!
    I added some new cars to my game (about 30), but I can only see and use 5. Does this have something to do with the other cars not being compatible with the newest game version?

    You want me to write down all these mods?
    I can tell you that I have used them before and they worked. Now only some of them work.

    Is it really that hard? If so then provide a screenshot of your vehicles folder.

    That's the problem. Russian mods are almost all the time out-dated because they don't BOTHER to update them, as it takes 10 minutes to make one.

    Stop using "illegal" mods from another forum, and then ask for help on the official one.. We don't support Russian mods.

    Actually none of the working ones are from the forum. I have quite a few official ones, but they still don't work...

    Define 'not working'.

    If they just appear invisible and you can still drive them around, then the mods are outdated and need to be fixed to work in the latest version by their authors.

    They don't appear in the game. It's like the game is ignoring the ZIP files completely.

    I already said that they worked before and I was not unzipping any of them. Unless something changed. Couple of weeks since I played BeamNG.

    Well try unzipping, I have your problem too with some mods, but thanks to Nadeox for clearing that up with the ghost car thing. My mods folder has all of the cars unzipped and in a folder ( I have one russian mod cause I always wondered how bad they were. ) and they pop up into the game, same with levels, also, a few weeks ago BeamNG moved its mods folder to the "My Documents" folder, you used to be able to change it, but it changes back to my documents every update (Well it does for me) (If you are a small SSD user like me, there is a way to move the "My Documents" folder to another HDD, right click it, propities, location, happy days) so make sure its in the right folder, also, pls don't use Russian mods, cool for taking pictures but bad for gameplay, they are just ripped from a game then ported to BeamNG.

    Unzipped them to the mods folder and still nothing. Tried unzipping to the vehicles folder, but still nothing. I'm okay with the Russian crap not working, but it seems really weird that the official mods are not working...

    It sounds like you are installing them wrkng
    Not all mods have the same installation method..
    Most of them says how to correctly install them in their thread first post. Usually, if they support the Zip system (even if all mods are zipped, not all are enabled to use that, especially old ones) they go in Documents/BeamNG.Drive/mods..


    An up-to-date video that can be useful.

    Got it! Didn't know I had to make a vehicles folder inside the mods folder.
