Probably you have local copy of the mod, remove it.

Same here
I downloaded it from Workshop and I have the same problem

Same issue. ModOptionsEngine.lua file doesn't exist on the client, when connecting to a multiplayer server

Same Issue.

The same thing happens to me as Pseudomonas

I get that the TheStar mod is not installed, and I am subscribed to the workshop

That means the server is running an old file, if nothing works, I'm afraid you'll have to create a new one.

If joining a server, then they have to update their's

After an hour or so was finally able to get it fixed.

You have to get the !ModOptionsEngine.lua from the workshop mod folder of where ModOptions is and put that file in the following local directory "ProjectZomboid\media\lua\shared".

I don't get why that happens though. If someone could explain that, I'd greatly appreciate it.

P.S This was also downloaded from Steam Workshop.

Idk why but sometimes there are mods which use that path when run in a multiplayer server. This is the same case with Arsenal/Britas when it comes to multiplayer

Is that some sort of bug or?

Also been noticing that it would only allow me in the server if I was an Admin but not another user which would then prompt the "file doesn't exist on client" error. Any suggestions?

If you're another user, is that user subbed in the workshop? If so, did you also move the mod files in that user's Zomboid folder?

Regarding if it's a bug, I actually do not know, I just know it happens because that's how Brita's/Arsenal is installed if you wanna host MP

I am the other user. I just logon with different credentials and it gives me that error.
