Would still love some help tracking this down if anyone who knows their way around a log file could take a look, or give me some idea what I'm looking for. We play with a few mods, but nothing obscure, and these desyncs are recent and seem to be ruining at least 1 game every week or two. I know I had Docsyn turn on the FAF Debugger. Hopefully that's reflected in the log.

@Ctrl-K going to try this as an alternative, thank you

This will likely be connected to changes the DevOps team's been making to try and protect FAF from the ongoing DDOS attacks - the announcements section of discord is probably the best place for updates on this for now:

Connection issue update #7
Unfortunately todays update contained some older ICE adapter refactoring that was pending for release and causes other problems now. We are working on a solution.

In limited use I have noticed client 2025.2.0-alpha-1 seems to keep chat connected.

@atomic8733 said in How to mod unknown unit icon?:

@Dorset hi Dorset, Yes, both my menu and lobby is enabled, and all other custom icon works but the unknown icon. I also tired the "Scale Strategic Icon" in the option but it scale all icons including the medium sized which make it too large. Does your unknow icon change when using custom icon?

I am no expert but what I have is the "Redux Strategic Icons Large" mod along with the "Redux ACU Icons"

I have these activated and my in game interface settings are all on except for scaling I have that off. One of the options is something like "on with tech marker" and the rest are all on.

I hope that helps.

Stilll not working, which is unfortunate for a big undertaking like a coop mission

Best way of seeing how they're different is to play against each of them. M28 is a bit harder, runs faster (relevant if you have a bad CPU or play on large maps with lots of players), is more compatible with mods, and has a range of customisation options.

M27 is a bit more 'player-like' in how it manages units (M28 coordinates its units as a team, whereas M27 does it on a per-player basis for the most part), and is more heavily impacted by intel (if it cant see a unit it doesnt realise it's there; whereas for M28 it remembers if it saw that unit a few seconds ago even if it loses intel). It also has a few strategies it still does better than M28 (such as rushing a strategic bomber, or building a firebase on a map like astro craters).

@Nuggets said in Ranked vs unranked games:

i have 0 trust in anything else it shows from lobby settings

Its display of the share condition is bugged but everything else is good I think.

I think you can just put bots on player spots and remove them at start with cheats. But most of coop maps may break due to some stuff relating on players

It also works other way around. Lower CPU rating = better CPU

Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!

Thanks for your report @SplashGG

Please tell your friend to enable dark mode on windows.

@magge said in Uploading Custom Made Map Issue:

AFAIK, it is not necessary to write "v2" or any version in the map name

Rather than not necessary, it's not actually allowed. Versioning of maps should be done with the "save as new version" option in the editor.

@Freelancer54 said in Uploading Custom Made Map Issue:

Hello, I am new to making maps and I have an issue with uploading maps to FAF.

Come join us in the FAF discord and head over to the mapping channel. You can share your mapfile with us there and we'll have a closer look.
