Unable to join server game **SOLVED**

Hi, I just installed H2 and project Cartographer via the installation guide posted here (all files downloaded from that post). Everything worked well until I attempted to join a game. I can see multiple servers and users on the servers but when I attempt to join them I receive the following error:

You can't join this party because they are running a different version of Halo 2. Sorry about that.

Has anybody else had this issue. I have restarted my computer multiple times as well as uninstalled and reinstalled h2 and the h2online.exe.

I have also attached a screenshot of the error. Any ideas how to remedy this issue?

What he said ^, I think this is included in the guide no?

That worked perfectly. Thank you so much for the quick reply. Sorry for not realizing there was an update.

I used this guide (http://www.halo2vista.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=3820) and I couldn't find that update there. Perhaps I'm just skimming too much though.

Anyway... Thanks so much for your quick help.
You are correct sir, it does appear CrayCray did forget to mention the update.

I was referring to the github/patch page guides, but that should certainly be updated to point out they need the official update as well.

well the launcher should've detected if his game was updated or not and ran the update by itself. Maybe I should make the package run silently in case people cancel the update installation.
