Hello !
I would like to say about one problem that woes me.
I'd like to play with your mod with a friend. He hasn't got original CD key, because he lost his book with key and a game as one of his colleagues didn't gave it to him. In other ways - he was robbed. He told me, that he have had regained his game, but he borrowed it to another friend, but his book with CD-key never had to be found. But whatever. I do have original. When we want to play vanilla BFME through hamachi - no problems. When we want to play 5.0 version of your mod (without Royal Guards, Black Uruks etc) - no problem. When we update our games and want to play latest version = "Game detected a mismatch. This means that the multiplayer game has lost a synchronization data between the players. It is possible that your opponent modified their version of the game".

1. we got same cracks because he sent me his version because I know when I'll play original and he won't that it won't work
2. we have both english versions of your mod

What may be the problem?

Did you both patch all the way?

Did you both patch all the way?

What do you mean "all the way"? Yes, of course we have patched it. Besides, if we would have had different patches, we couldn't play in vanilla BFME and the 1st release of Dwarf Holds.

If you both updated your games and it says it's a mismatch, it might be one

What I would recommend is to try to update it again, to see if any of you acctually don't have the latest patch, and if that doesn't work out, both reinstall (the mod, not the game!)

If you go to your registry editor (Start -> Run -> type regedit) and search (Ctrl+F) for 'The Dwarf Holds' (make sure Keys and Match Whole String Only are ticked, but not Values and Data), you should be able to see a list of TDH properties. One of them is 'Version', which should say 0.551 for both of you.

Well, I've checked mine and it's clearly 0.551.
Tomorrow I'll know about my friends version. But it's a veery strange thing.
If it will be still 0.551, we'll try to reinstall mod. And the thing about patch - we have for sure the same patch, because when we played vanilla BFME it worked perfectly !

I think we are (or at least I am) talking about the TDH 0.551 patch.
