    This is about a NASCAR vehicle. Not Dale Earnheardt.

    That's because I'm quite concerned with copyright and permissions ect. I've halted modding progress atm for quite a bit. I want to contact one of the company modelers to get full permission to finish and release the mod. I don't want a well made and hard worked on mod going to waste similar to the lotus 49 mod which got completely screwed over by copyright. It was a great mod but asseta corsa creators didn't like having the model up on beamng which obviously forced to to be removed. The mod is still available on that weird Russian mod site but i'd hate for my work to go unnoticed and wind up there. If this is the case for this mod I may release a dirt midget car I made a few months back.

    It is from project cars made by Slightly Mad Studios. However both are very similar and very big games. I want to get permission before I release the mod. Remember that the model is hidden in the game files for a reason and aren't usually public. I'd also assume they wouldn't want a PAID games assets released for a free mod for another game they aren't affiliated with.

    I they never contacted me back. I'm just gonna shoot my shot tbh and hope they don't notice it. It model has been used in gmod rfactor, and wreckfest which is huge. I doubt they'd care about it being in beamng tbh. As I said earlier if anything goes wrong I have a dirt midget mod I was working on a few months back. I'd probably wind up releasing that if that happened.

    they would have taken the Wreckfest mod down by now if they don't like the model being used as free mods in other games. since you have big youtubers using it. EdSoundHead, ComodoGaming, Neilogical just to name a few who have made videos on the Wreckfest mod. that would have gotten a lot of attention due to their popularity with sim and arcade racers.

    I have a question. In Project Cars I loved the amount of skin selection for this vehicle model. Will any of them be included in this mod? Thanks again!

    I have all the skins from project cars and i'll probably include a few. I'd rather use the real life skins I have for the car instead more though

    its annoying to ask but will you do a addon pack maybe adding some of the skins from project cars and hell maybe even some custom skins of your own? Also again sorry for being annoying

    So, from what i've read in this thread, you don't have permission to use this model and you're hoping that slightly mad studios let this slide.
    The problem with not having permission to use a model on the beamng forums is, that the devs will not let you publish your mod. Not until you have the permission for the model.
    This is exactly what happend to the CTK mod.

    It's not like you're asking money for it. That would be the only reason I would ever have an issue with someone incorporating something I've made in a mod. As long as you give credit I doubt you'd ever receive any blowback. Especially with big game studios it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission. The worst they would do is send you a cease and desist but that would undoubtedly snowball into a "Streisand effect" just like the OuiOui and Prostock Drag Mod for NR2003 back in the day.

    I stated above. I'm still waiting for a response from the company. But since they probably get email left and right they never bothered reading it. I'd assume they made the model basically public since it in several other big games as well and that they're fine with anyone using it as long as money isn't being made off their model. (example selling a nascar game that uses their model)
