Data differs from server

Since I got a new connection with IPV6 and i'm currently back on my old PC it gives me this error when i try to join a server.
The guy warned me that it might get problems but on my notebook with win8 I can easily turn off the IPV6 but on XP this is not possible i think.
Any ideas?

Data differs doesn't mean connection problem. It means you do not have the correct files to play on the server.

BF1942 full install + 1.6 + 1.61 Kobro ?

I thought so too but I haven't changed anything as far as i remember... what could cause it?

edit: ok, forget about it... problem fixed itself as it seems. strange!

Re: Data differs from server

Check in your <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\Archives\bf1942\levels folder if you have modified .rfa files of Aberdeen, Battleaxe, et cetera. If not, check in <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\Archives\ if Objects.rfa and Textures.rfa are changed.

Re: Data differs from server

You can search for ".rfa" in ...\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Archives folder using Windows Explorer search and then sort the results by date to see what was changed

Re: Data differs from server

Your <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\Archives\ has all original untouched files, looking at modified date from 2002 to 2004, so it is good there. Check your levels folder <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\Archives\bf1942\levels sorting them by date, as ziba128 suggested, to see if any was recently modified, all vanilla map files should range date from 2002 to 2004. Check also if <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\init.con file is modified.

Re: Data differs from server

If that is the case, Syndrum run BF1942 GameSpy patch or update them manually and do reply if you can connect to servers.

Re: Data differs from server

Hello, welcome!
No, that is not a problem. Those are original map files. Make sure you have BF1942 v1.61 installed, download and run BF1942 GameSpy patch to update game. After that, if you still have data differs error message, you have to check your Levels and Archives folder sorting by date, to see if any modified or new file is present there. Read these posts carefully: http://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic. … 905#p60905
