    I tried to make my first mod, so I follow the tutorial "Introduction to vehicle creation". But when I should be able to find my vehicle in the repo I can't. I tried to change the info file with some from official vehicles, zip the file and a lot of other things but no one worked out.

    Here's my info.json :
    {
    "Name":"TWH",
    "Author":"Dothero",
    "Type":"Car",
    "default_pc":"default",
    "colors":{
    "Pearl White": "1 1 1 1"
    }
    }
    The folder only contain info.json and TWH.jbeam.

    We need a little more info on the problem, where is the file for instance, and do you have any jbeam files in the folder

    I've put the file in beamng/content/vehicles like in the tutorial.
    The file contain only a jbeam file of the prop I want to spawn

    Firstly, the introduction to vehicle creation is outdated
    Secondly, try putting the files in here instead, make any folders you don't have and rename any folders in asterisks
    Documents/BeamNG.drive/mods/unpacked/*mod name*/vehicles/*prop or vehicle name*/ put your files here
