Problems starting multiplayer games with 1.58

Hi

I am currently having problems starting games with my version of SEV 1.58 with or without the BM 1.11.

At first I thought it must be my copy of SEV so I reinstalled it. But this did not fix the problem.
So I asked two other players to set up a game and see if they could get one going...they couldn't either.

We emailed MM and he seems to be working on the problem but I have seen that other have started game with 1.58 so I've been doing more messing around...to see what the problem might be.

I get the following message when I load empires into my games that do not come from my copy of SEV

I would very much like to get this fixed as it is really p***ing me off. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

For reference, we didn't both try joining games that the other had created - the other player started a game and I joined it only.

Ok I have fixed the above error message but I do not know if this will fix the problem I have been having.

The error is due to an outdated strategies file.

Try downloading v1.11 again. Check the date stamp on the default_ai_strategies file in the default empire folder - should be dated 19-Sep-07. It seems your file for some reason or another wasn't updated.

I had no problem myself setting up a game with the exact mod files from the website.

Well that seems to be what the problem was...games are up and running.
