Hello Modders 
I have played the vanilla version of 7DTD for a LONG time, ever since 7DTD first came out many moons ago at this stage I really would like to play some of the fantastic mods that I keep reading about such as Darkness Falls.
I am in no way a mod expert but a newbie in this category but in all of my Google and/or YouTube searches I thought I had followed everything correctly in installing this mod but I hope someone will be able to give me a nudge in the right direction. In any regard thank you for your time and assistance.
So I am running my own physical dedicated server, that is running Windows and I have the following applications installed:
After the mod was cleanly installed, I edited the serverconfig.xml file. In editing the serverconfig.xml I further indicated: disabled the EAC, Defined the Game Name as "Darkness Falls" and Game World as "DFalls-Large1-NoCP", after which I launched the startdedicated.bat which starts my 7DTD Darkness Falls server correctly.
At this point I go to my PC, verify that my local 7DTD client is running the same build (20.6) and launched 7DTD with the EAC disabled as well. When I go to join then I see my server but after selecting it then I am receiving this error "Unexpected data received. Server is either running an incompatible version or requires the client to install mods".
Thank you again!
Rick
