Hello, I would like to start off by saying this is a fantastic mod and has pretty much taken over all of my gaming. That being said whenever I try to do multi player with mods as soon as I log in to the MP it freezes. I assumed that this was because the mod didnt support MP, but since you all have specifically stated that v 2.0 does I am just a little puzzled as to why it doesnt work. I have the base game patched up all the way and I installed the mod properly. Single player works beautifully. The MP in vanilla FoC works, so I was wondering if you knew why this problem occurs, and if anyone else has been having it. Thanks for the hard work, have a good one.

This is a problem that tends to occur with default FOC as well as with having mods installed.
There is an official fix here: http://www.lucasarts.com/support/update/EAWFOC1_1.html
If that doesn't work there is an unofficial fix here:

If you use either of those make sure the person you are playing with has the respective patch installed as well.

cool, thanks. I did already use the official one but it obviously didnt work, so I will try that unofficial one. Thanks again.

The unofficial one is saying that the public links have been disabled. :-/
-
The site the guy uses for hosting (Dropbox) has a limit on how many people can download a file per day. The links appear to be disabled due to high traffic. I would just try again tomorrow or the day after. Also there is a more updated version of that patch on page 6 of that thread.

Hey, just posting to say we think we've found what the problem is and we should have it fixed in our upcoming patch for 2.0.
-
awesome, thanks for the help guys. :)

Hey, for some reason every tim e my friend and I are trying to play this on multiplayer we are getting a notification that is saying we have a version mismatch, however we have both checked and we do have the same version 2.0 with the hotfix we have both downloaded the foc multiplayer update. any ideas?
-
Have you made sure you don't have anything different in your EAW/Data or FoC/Data folders?
-
Im pretty sure. we are going to try a fresh install and see if that solves the problem.

The version mismatch is an issue with Steam. There is probably no actual difference in patches, it just has a different version number for no reason. You should make sure you both have the same patches just to be sure though.
