Game outputs raw text strings instead of actual names for most 0.27 additions (Safe Mode = Fine)

    Never had this issue before with an update. When I first tried this update on Safe Mode, everything was fine. But when I loaded into the game with my mods, the game began replacing most of the 0.27 lines with raw text strings. They mostly have to do with maps as all the vehicle names in the update are fine. The only vehicle-related thing I've seen so far is that some of the text strings to do with the new ignition feature. Here are some screenshots.

    Everything is fine on Safe Mode, but I do hope to use mods of course. I'll look at my mods at some point, I'm mostly just hoping for pointers on what type of mod is doing this.

    Just looked into it. This seemed to be another bug with confliction in BeamMP. The level select menu's names are fixed now, so I'd assume everything else is. Just make sure to update your BeamMP and that'll fix it.

    BeamMP should be illegal at this point if it breaks so much, why can't the devs force the BeamMP team to make the mod properly?

    I can't personally say it 'breaks so much' to the point where there should be action taken to BeamMP. It is technically just a mod for the game, although very important. I've had BeamMP since Jan 2020 and this is the first time I've had an issue where I've had to uninstall the mod directly if I wanted to play the base game without issue. That is subjective technically, but I'd think issues would be global. They did already fix it, I only noticed this issue because I forgot to update (I haven't used BeamMP in a hot minute, so that's my fault) and only put it here for other people that experienced this aswell.
    I could be wrong, but isn't TruckersMP the same type-of-deal just for a more specific community? I don't believe SCS talks to them about their mod, and SCS even made their own multiplayer experience after a hot while. The biggest reason would be if BMP caused game-breaking issues, than I could believe so, but I find it as the same logic as mods newly outdated.

    BeamMP breaks the modding guidelines, stays active even after deactivating in mod manager, and causes issues with almost every game update, in 0.26 it was completely breaking the game before it got updated. On top of that there are the issues with people abusing the lack of proper enforced rules and regulations (stealing paid mods, ruining the fun of everyone by crashing into them with the rocket bus, insulting in the chat, etc.) I seriously have no idea how it's allowed.

    Everyone is free to uninstall the mod by deleting it from the multiplayer mods folder. No difficult task. I really like multiplayer from time to time.
