Updated but can't get on games! Help!

Hello, I am updated to vs. [IP address redacted] for Eastern Front but when I go into the lobby and look for available games I am not able to join them.  What is the most likely reason for this?  An additional mod being ran by most EF users?  I map pack being commonly used that I don't know about?  Any advice to get me back in the game is welcome!  Thank you!

Well it's because when you go to mulitplayer it still shows games from Vanilla CoH and any other CoH mods. Since your on eastern front you can't play with them because there not. You'll have to find people to play with that are USING the Eastern Front mod.

Supposing you are not trying to join into CoH games when playing EF, this post might help you list the causes of such error:

This is the cause of either of three things. Just remember that you only can play with people using the same verison of Eastern Front as you. You can't play with people that are not using Eastern Front.

  1. Corrupt Installation

  2. Old Eastern Front Patch

  3. Certain Skin mods

  4. Sound packs

  5. Editing Eastern Front module file

  6. Editing files of the Eastern Front directory
