Incompatible Version Error Message
So me and my dad are trying to play modded Valheim (We are using r2modman, if you need a list of the mods, I will provide them.), and my dad is hosting a server using the in-game server tools, which he selects "Start Server, Community Server, [uses password]", and he can make the server perfectly. When I try to join, I can make it to the password screen, enter a password, and then after a bit of loading, it boots me back to the title screen, with the error message "Incompatible Version". I checked the logs, and the only thing I can recognize in the logs for the version stuff is "ErrorVersion". Please help.

You both need to have the same mods and the same version of mods. Maybe he added a mod and forgot to tell you, or he updated his mods and you didn’t.

R2modman is a great tool. Ask him for the code of his modpack (it can be found somewhere in settings of R2modman) and make a profile using that code to make sure you have everything exactly the same.

Also when you start the game using R2modman, there should be another box (bepinex) running in background. When you try to connect to the server, switch to that screen and you should see red messages stating what is wrong.

We have the same mods and version, we used "Export mods as file". Also, I noticed this before I posted this, but there's no BepinEx console, which is weird, because my dad has it, and we have the same mods.

I think the option to enable console is somewhere in bepinex config file. I thought it was set to ON by default.
Not sure which one enables the console. Try to open bepinex config and see under Logging.Console.

The reason i suggested using the code to create a profile is that by doing so it should also copy all the configs. So you would have the exact same version of everything, mods and configs.
I never used export mods as file, so i don't know how that works.

You have to add to launch parameters:
-console
Check whether it's before or after the BepInEx strart script path.

Huh, apparently it's supposed to be on by default, and my dad never had to change any config files, so I don't know what happened. Either way, I will tell you my findings in the console when I am done. Thank you so much!
