Default Host has different version

I've been trying to play the Babylon 5 mod with a friend of mine, but no matter what I do it always says he has a different version of the game.

This is a very simple problem. Your host (or you) has some other mods, as well as the B5 mod, on his game. To play a modded game, set aside a clean install of A2, then install the mod on it, and get the host to do the same. Then it sgould work.

Could this also be caused by installing the patches in a different order?

Yes. It can be caused by anything that means you have a different set of files to your friend.

Install Armada 2 first, and then the patch, and then the Babylon 5 Project.

I say the patch before, as it no doubt has files in it which would overwrite those found in the B5 project, and you don't want to be doing that. Good Luck!
