General Placing mods outside main directory

[Franzus]

Adding cars, tracks, skins, etc into the main \Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\content\ folder works just as expected.
But I was hoping that I could use the Documents folder instead, and thus leave the original installation untouched. But placing files into C:\Users\****\Documents\Assetto Corsa\Content\cars, tracks, textures... does not work, even though this is the same folder structure as in the main installation folder.
Is there a way this can be done? That way all my modded and add-on content would be in a separate place.
If not, what is this folder structure in the Documents folder used for?

No, mods have to be installed in the steam folder structure and theres no way around that.

The folder structure in Documents is for setups, logs, settings, screenshots, and so on.
