HIP and Multiplayer

[Silas1775]

I've been trying to set up a multiplayer game with a couple friends and have run into a problem with differing checksums. While I have all the DLC, they do not. This includes DLC needed for CPR, which only I have installed. I suspect this may be the problem, but I'm not sure. Other than me opting-in to CPR our installations of HIP are identical.

I searched(maybe poorly), but I couldn't find an explanation of exactly what is required to get multiplayer underway with HIP. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Any file/mod that change content in the game change the checksum.
To play in mp you need to have :
- Exact same version of the game
- Exact same version and plugin of HIP
- If you have other mod and they do not, the checksum will differ

NB - Expansion pack do not change checksum

Ok, so if our games are up to date and we both have the current version of HIP installed, the issue is that I have the CPR module installed and he does not, is that correct?

Correct.

An alternative, me and my friends run BLG. While I have all the dlc, sans ebooks, my friend does not but we can still run it and play together.
