    So I may have gone a bit overboard on mods... I had 242 Installed, but since the latest Updates, They kept breaking my game, So I want to uninstall them all and reinstall some. However, the "uninstall all mods" button has only uninstalled about 70 mods or so... So I wanted to ask If Taking the mod files from the folder directly would cause any harm to the game, since the Mods have been installed through the "Install now" button and I have no Idea how that works...

    EDIT: my "mods" folder has dissapeared completely. attempting to resubscribe to mods gives me the "already_unsubscribed" error... Do I have to reinstall the game?

    EDIT2: Im going to rename this thread now. So I have reinstalled BeamNG.drive after what happened (explained above), Yet the mods still seem to remain! Its currently showing 1 out of 186 mods active, Even though I erased all BeamNG Files from my computer only to reinstall. The Mods folder isnt showing up either...what can I do now?

    You can manually remove mods from your mods folder without any problem.

    I did two clean Reinstalls... I deleted everything, Even the Non-steam BeamNG drive version, But its still messing up. anyways, Ive got it to work now, with 183 active mods, not too bad, and I hope once the Repository is fixed This mess will clean itself. Still no Mods folder though...

    You are looking in the wrong folder (installation folder).
    Never install mods there.

    You must go in Documents/BeamNG.Drive (default userfolder path).

    Just follow this guide, as it says the same: https://wiki.beamng.com/How_to_install_mods
    There also a video guide if you really need, which shows everything step by step


    (Look at 1:25 for exact part where it shows the 'mods' folder part)
