Thing is most of the American mods are done by Europeans,

I’m pretty sure custom modding is from all over the place but I believe the bulk of them are from South America, unfortunately for your argument Costa Rica and Panama both happen to be part of North America so you got one from Europe. Custom is a great example also of what I said earlier, a group of modders adding equipment with all sorts of options that benefit everyone. It’s something the developers of the game could only half hearted implement.
82 Studio actually lives in Nicaragua. He has recently temporarily moved to a new house with plans to either move to the States or Costa Rica. To my understanding David is originally from Spain and still has family living there. He recently had a trip to Florida where flew and he met with some other YouTubers including DJGOHam in Ohio where I believe DJGOHam is from I think.Mwal wrote: ↑Sun May 15, 2022 4:12 pmI’m pretty sure custom modding is from all over the place but I believe the bulk of them are from South America, unfortunately for your argument Costa Rica and Panama both happen to be part of North America so you got one from Europe.

The question for me and it should also be for Giants as well is why is the modhub so unappealing for a lot of the US modders, as you say it's not like it's not an active scene.
I thought goham was from the Carolinas. It may have been driver53 that was from ohio because I saw him posting vids of that "adventure" and he was part of the trioScotsDude73 wrote: ↑Sun May 15, 2022 5:47 pm82 Studio actually lives in Nicaragua.

I don't think they want to deal with giants. Most just do their own testing and pay their product. Also some mods are conversion where the original author doesn't even mod anymore so you can't get the right information for giants to allow on the modhub. Also I don't think some want to spend time on writing the translation to German and used to get the payment you had to have a Swiss bank account, which perma said they have changed that to a degree. I just think the main thing is they don't want to deal with giants testing.norfolk farmer wrote: ↑Mon May 16, 2022 2:30 pm
