This script checks the mods loaded by the client. If one mod is not loaded, automate .POP UP´S let the player know about it, offering costumizable links to community guides. .
You can define each mod as “required” or “doesn’t required”.

 

If required mod is not loaded by the client, Mod Checker warns the player, and when the player closes the dialog, he is kicked from the game in a silent way.
If non required mod is not loaded, Mod Checker warns the player, but the player can still on the server.
If no errors are generated, Mod Checker runs in silent without popup

The following image shows what you need change for each mod.

Check in editor - tools - config viewer - configfile - cfgPatches and search for your mods classnames (YELLOW)

Next, create a unique variable name (BLUE) and change string (PINK) for each mod.

Is your script any better than this?

Doesn't verifySignatures do basically the same?

I believe that just kicks players without telling them why.

I don't know, i made this from zero and don't know how works this other script. Probabbly makes some similar. This is an educational work for me and I don't read the iceMEd script for now.

Reading iCEtlMeds description I deduce that my display is opened in full screen and requires a player interaction to be closed. Can contains various links and the mods can be configurable as required or optional. The menu is scrollable and can contains unlimited number of lines and links.

If a mod is setted as required and this mod is not loaded on the client, the client be warned and when the player closes the display (after read and click CONTINUE) is silent kicked.

If is optional mod are only warned, but can still in the server.

This script is launched on init but only show the display screen if any error has encountred.

When the first check is passed, can execute again with [] execVM "addons\scripts\modChecker.sqf" and opens the popup although any mod fails. Contains an icon to and code to be launched wit ExAd.

iCEtiMeds also seems outdated (links and images are down) and my script is licenced under open source rights and anyone can feel free to modify or use any part of my code.

This doesn't substitute verifysignatures.

With verifysignatures, Battleye checks if you are loading one mod NOT RELATED with the server (like a cheat), but doesn't kick or warn if the mod is missing.

If you enter without for example a weapons mod, with verifysignatures = 1, you cannot view or use the weapons, but you can play full of bugs. If other mods like Exile are not loaded, never loads nothing.

This is a substitute from these lines from your mission.sqm

class Mission
{
    addOns[]=
    {
        "exile_client"
        "Ryanzombies",
        "ryanzombiesfunctions",
        "Esseker"
    };
    addOnsAuto[]=
    {
        "exile_client",
        "Esseker"
    };
