Cigarette pack helmet
May 3rd Update Broke Vanilla and Modded Vehicles
Hi!
I like your mod, but I noticed today when I loaded a save that, after your mod updated, all my vehicles were messed up! Some cars were only shadows on the ground, and some modded vehicles had reverted to seemingly random vanilla cars, and sometimes car wrecks. It seems like a mod conflict of some kind - from what I could tell, it broke both Vanilla Vehicles Animated and Filibuster Rimes Used Cars (Animation Beta).

I did some testing with new saves, confirmed the vehicle mods worked, and then added your cigarette helmet mod, which reproduced the issue. What's more, removing the mod doesn't fix the save - the cars that were messed up were still overwritten with another, different vehicle, but the shadow cars came back, and the animations worked. I can't be 100% confident without knowledge of modding, code, etc, but it seems very likely to me that your mod caused that issue. If that's the case, hopefully it can be fixed! I would hate to leave out this mod. It's small, but it's a very nice touch.

I think I know whats wrong, Are you playing on the current game version or unstable 42?

forgot 42 doesnt have multiplayer yet, it was a hamfisted addition to the script I added that broke it but Im not sure how that's even possible. Sorry again, pretty sure game creates back up saves in the game files.
We initially encountered the problem on a dedicated server running a large (250ish mod count) so it took us a while to figure out what was going on. It wasn't just on the dedicated server, by the way, we reproduced the issue in single player as well. We're running the most recent stable version, 41.78.16. Thanks for getting on this so quickly!

I didn't mention it in my previous comment, but I pushed update yesterday and tested it with filibuster cars in both singleplayer and multiplayer it should be compatible now.
