    @Uveso - I'm not sure how to get details on this for you, but hopefully you've been doing this long enough to know what i'm talking about.

    Bug: Cybran ACU upgraded with maser tree works as normal. If that ACU gets in a transport and is dropped off, Maser no longer fires reliably, and commander will mostly just fire normal shot. Maser will infrewuently fire in bursts, and also fires into the dirt at ACU's feet sometimes. Does not happen if ACU teleports, only if it boards a transport.

    Background: My memory is hazy, but I believe this used to be a vanilla bug, but was fixed at some point. My guess is this same fix could be applied to the BlackOps ACU if we could find it?

    After almost 3 years I have finally released another version of the rust crate, and CLI tool. I also published a new version of the python package which adds binary wheels for python 3.11 and 3.12, and removes support for python 3.7. Note, the version numbers happen to correspond between the rust/python packages but that is just coincidence, I have not updated the python library to use the new changes from the rust one yet.

    Rust: https://crates.io/crates/faf-replay-parser/0.6.0
    Python: https://pypi.org/project/faf-replay-parser/0.6.0/

    What's new?

    Many, many refactors to the API. If you wrote some rust code that used version 0.5.2 of the rust crate, you'll have to update some syntax to get it to work with 0.6.0. See the improved docs page for the new syntax.

    For CLI users things you'll notice are:

    The improvement to the command output is now released on 0.6.0 Some additional output like game title and game quality in fafreplay info A new fafreplay info --raw option for dumping out the entire contents of the replay header Better detection of file type which does not rely on the file extension Some basic support for Supreme Commander 2 replays

    Enjoy!

    v185 Update
    13 changes, including:

    New game setting, M28 enemy threat factor, that lets you adjust the threat M28 assigns to enemy units. What this means in practice is you can make M28 much more or less likely to attack if it is unable to kite the enemy (for example, setting it to 0.1 and in an equal fight M28's tanks will think they have 10 times more than the enemy). Intended for people who want to significantly change how M28 plays or for use with shared armies mode, and it's not recommended you adjust this if you want a competitive experience. ACUs being more likely to stay in visual range of an enemy ACU they want to kill Spirits and snoops using attack orders when being aggressive to reduce the risk they die to shorter ranged units Various early game ecoing improvements, particularly for an air slot (delaying when to build energy storage or radar, fixing an issue in teamgames that caused too much T1 pgens to be built when T2 teech was available, increased prioritisation of mex upgrade assistance)

    yes this is only a workaround for Total Mayhem and needs a manual check of all involved game.logs.
    You said that currently specially TM is causing your headaches and i hoped this would help you right now.

    Of course a general mod check from the game itself would be better.

    Btw, different versions can(should) have the same name. They have different UIDs and another version number.
    We have a rule in the vault not to change the name of a mod if you just upload a different version!

    Also FAF live should host a credits (points? mass? what ever it is you are gambeling with) leaderboard, since the voting is such a big deal in every stream.

    I don't understand why it's made more difficult on purpose because technically its called neroxis map gen. The average user has never heard of neroxis so they wouldn't get it, and the more time passes the less people identify the map gen as "neroxis map gen" and the more people identify it as "random map generator" or such. I haven't actually heard anyone say neroxis in such a long time since literally everyone just calls it "map gen" now.

    Rules are meant to inform. If your rules don't properly inform then they aren't good rules,

    I think it would be much better if you made a separate scene where the card instead of being spread across the screen would be in pairs in the middle (you would need each cards to have a Left version (just positioned on the left of the screen) and right version) and then depending on the match up the casters would unhide the specific cards before the match starts. Right now it looks weird with the cards blocking UI or being on the bottom of fhe screen

    That is what the forum is about. We are looking for long term contributors.

    Also purged the deleted topics. Wasn't aware they are visible to the public.

    Long term contributors =/= unpaid job

    An unpaid job is doing free work because you don't have the experience or are in training like an internship, it sucks.

    A contributor or volunteer is someone that gives part of their free time to help and develop a community or project they enjoy partaking in. They do it out of love.

    Now I know this is purely semantics but there's a difference with us saying:

    "The community needs X person doing Y job, its is unpaid, here are your responsibilities and expectations"

    "The community needs help in X issue, we need a Y volunteer for this, you only need to put a couple of hours a week to contribute and these are the things you would be doing"

    I don't make graphics for newshub because it's an unpaid job, I do out of enjoyment for doing and helping the community. I get some control of the decisions of my work because I'm the volunteer in charge of that. In a job you do as you are told.

    And I don't know anyone who says "I have an unpaid job helping my community clean up", people say "I volunteer to help my community clean up", same action but clearly different connotations which people will perceive differently.

    Also I appreciate you making sure the deleted posts aren't being seen. It made it look way cleaner.

    Would you know who I can talk to start a solution/update to this part of the forum? Maybe Gieb is the correct person?

    @Jip thanks for discussing it at least, but no, I'm decided not to use the ASI/Brewlan icon mods. They are too busy; even the Classic version. Blackheart wrote some thoughts on the ASI icons in this thread which is worth a read.

    Currently I'm using a 150% upscaled version of the stock icons + Penguin's icons. Unfortunately it seems whatever processing is done in game does not work well with blended pixels, so I applied a sharpen filter which makes the result usable but still disgusting. I'm playing on 4k/28" screen so upscaling is a must (but personally I don't want 200%).

    As Jip said we are working on a new wiki behind the scenes at the moment.

    If you are interested in helping out on the new wiki drop us a msg on discord on what you want to help out with and can see what we can do.

    The new wiki is currently not live as we are updating creating new pages.

    I will write a longer post tomorrow but to clarify :
    Dialogue pops up for the duration of the video. If there is no video specified it uses back up and it lasts 5 sec.
    I've already put the whole script through text to speech and adjusted timings through other means to simulate how it would look like with real voice overs + videos. At this point what Is left to do is approving the script, the voice actor and the style he will be recording in. I also could use a few people playtesting the tutorial to see what they think.

    Well tbh I think something more action oriented or "epic scale" oriented is what I'm looking for. However, I don't control/manage the website so tbh, it's whatever we (or whoever has the power to move the website) will decide as a community
