When i try to join a game it says "Your mod checksum differs from the host's. Ensure you are running the same mod as the host." What does this mean? What is Checksum? How do i make it so that i can actually play a game?

Thanks in advance for any advice given.

apperently you either have a mod active that the host does not have or the host has a mod that is active that you do not have.

When you activate a mod the checksum changes (dont ask me what it means idk) this is for compatibliity issues. So either you have to shut down your mod or ask the host to deactivate his or give his to you so you guys can play together.

Is it also possible that the host is running a custom map? Real custom maps do not auto-download for this game.
