    In order to successfully play a multiplayer game with others, does each player have to have 100% the same content? I wanted to know if I could have graphical changes on my game, still play, yet everyone else is on vanilla?

    I am unsure whether or not ethnic unit art or City Style art will mess things up. I too am curious. If no one knows, and you want to test it I could make a testbed mod for checking this out.

    Graphical mods loaded through CustomAssets in My Documents seems to have no effect on Multiplayer compatibility. I can play with others in Vanilla while using modded graphics.

    I generally advise people to play MP with a "clean" (no mods of any sort) installation.
