@Brutus5000 said in Friend getting kicked for not having mods, despite DLing them each time:
There is an error on uploading a mod in the log. If you are playing this mod your friend has the newest version but the rest of you don't.
So worked on this last night and still no solution. The mods currently causing problems are BlackOps: Unleashed and BlackOps: EXUnits. (BlackOps: ACUs works for some reason). We have doublechecked that we are both on version 19 from the mod vault. At one point, I have even zipped up my mod folder and sent it to them to unzip -- Regardless of how we make sure the mods are installed, what happens is;
IF I HOST:
a) They attempt to join my game
b) FAF attempts to download the BlackOps mods (even though they have the them)
c) When they complete the DL, it installs it overtop the mods we already had installed.
d) They then join and are insta-kicked because it says they don't have the mods.
IF THEY HOST:
A) they cannot start a game with the BlackOps and EXUnits mods.. only BlackOps ACU. Mod manager in the lobby says they do not have the mod.
And Like I say, they have uninstalled, deleted all folders, and reinstalled.. we have zipped my mod folder up.. We have tried checking/unchecking vault fallback.
It's just that no matter what files are in the mod folder, it tries to DL files from the mod vault, and then can't see those files (or they're corrupt) or something.
