The BeamNG.drive Repository is a free catalog of community modifications for BeamNG.drive, available on the web and inside the game. Categories include vehicles, scenarios, terrains and maps, interface apps, sounds, license plates, track builder items, skins, Automation content and mods of mods. The in-game repository supports search and category filters, and shows statistics such as ratings and dates. Players can install through the in-game Mod Manager or website actions. Subscribing downloads a mod and enables automatic updates when its author changes it. Browser downloads use ZIP archives that can be placed in the game's mods folder without extraction. The Mods Manager can update, enable, disable and manage installations. BeamNG recommends using no more than 20–30 mods simultaneously because conflicts can cause problems, and warns that older mods may be outdated or broken. BeamNG.drive supports Windows and experimental Linux; other systems and compatibility layers are unsupported.

Bethesda Creations is a community for discovering, downloading, and playing content made for Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Starfield. Its catalog includes creations from professional developers and enthusiasts. Some content is free; other creations require Creation Credits purchased through a game’s in-game menu. Players browse and download through supported games, while Skyrim creations can also be added from the website. Purchased creations may appear on multiple platforms when the same Bethesda.net account is linked, but credits remain on the platform where bought and are not transferable. Credits work across the three games on that same Steam or Xbox platform. Creators accepted into the Verified Creator Program can sell creations and earn royalties. Bethesda requires applicants to provide a portfolio, linked accounts, multifactor authentication, and the latest Creation Kit. Availability varies by region, title, and platform.
