Too many mods?
I want to join a server, but it says there are "too many mods" and it doesn't even load the mod list, has this ever happened to anyone?

Can't find any information about this, refreshing the launcher doesn't help.

And no, I won't install DZSA Launcher. I always used the vanilla launcher and I never had a problem.

Maybe I can try sending the server IP so you can see if you can login?

not sure what you are asking but before you join a server you can view the MOD list.

I've never gotten an error message saying "too many mods", but I also avoid servers with more than about 20 mods, and far less depending on the Mod .. Expansion, for example. If a server is running the Expansion mod plus 20 other mods, it's going to be a slideshow of server desync, and unplayable.

It's a Pripyat server, it's called "Echo RP" or something, I should have tried battlemetrics, maybe it shows how many mods there are in the server there...

I will come home in a few hours

it does show mods and so does the DayZ launcher
BattleMetrics shows me the mods, there are not a lot... I've seen worse.

But as I just said, to me, on the DayZ official launcher, it doesn't work, I don't know why.

I get that message in red "Too many mods, the launcher cannot retrieve all the mods"

Server name: ECHO RP La Nuova Era della Zona
Address: 45.138.200.144:2702
Server version: 1.27.159420
Required game version: 1.27.0

Map: Pripyat
Mission:
Players: 20/80

See if it does it for you too, I can however play this server, if I subscribe to all the mods shown on battle metrics and then try to login I guess.

The thing is, that error shows up for me, it's not like I'm faking it.

See it for yourself if it shows up to you too?

It may be a connection problem, even if I have fiber connection, ethernet, it may be their server problem, I don't know.

"Too many mods, the launcher cannot retrieve all the mods" Is not an error message and does not stop you from clicking "set up DLC and Mods" to continue .. it's just a message.
.. Yes, I see this all the time, and even when ALL mods are shown .. compare the list you see in the Launcher with the number of Mods you know are on the server, and you might find, all the mods ARE shown, even when you get that little message on the launcher window .. Just ignore it and continue to "Set Up DLC and Mods" .. Only worry if you get kicked when trying to load-in, with an actual error that says you need another mod, and then just go subscribe to that mod manually.

Yes that's what I'm going to do, it doesn't work if I ignore the message and click "setup mods and join".

Because there is no mod to download shown in the launcher.

Doing the manual method of downloading each mod may work though.

yea it should work - i've had the same *too many mods* message after reaching 35 of them on the server's load list, when hosting a lan server for myself to try out different stuff.
as long as you have the correct mods loaded, it should work, just click the grey *keep current selection and join* option.
