    FAF's rules are set out on the main FAForever website - by accessing FAF services, you agree to the rules outlined there, which are supplemental to the FAF Terms of Service.

    For details of how to report rule breaches and/or how the rules are enforced, please refer to the separate page on moderation

    Separate contribution guidelines exist for those considering contributing to FAF, while there are also official tournament rules that apply to official FAF tournaments.

    @magge OK so....after a lot of testing I think I have narrowed the issue down to 2 mods. "Rings For All" and "UI mod tools"

    The random freezing while zooming in and out would almost happen many times during an average game (even if it didnt completely freeze and crash) and that effect is nowhere present when those two mods are disabled and zero crashes now or anything for many dozens of games.

    For my part I have no skills to investigate this further but it does seem like there are a lot of people complaining about mid game crashing so maybe this is related.

    I am able to use my favorite icon packs again with zero issue, the only bummer for me is not having Rings For All active because that is an amazing mod but build range preview has been working fine so everything is back to normal in FAF world for me.

    Thanks for steering me in the right direction.

    If anyone else is crashing mid game and you have either of these 2 mods enabled try disabling them and reassessing.

  • Please provide detailled logs and/or error messages!

    @Jip said in Offline Line Campaign/Skirmish:

    You need to host at least one (coop) game through the client. That will retrieve the file in question. Then you can play offline again.

    The game files are not included with the launcher by default.

    Thanks for the help Jip, I appreciate it.

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
    I had tried 'windowed' and 3 numbers separated by commas before, but this was my last attempt (I saw the resolutions for primary_adapter higher up and it had two similar lines for each resolution).

    I really appreciate that strategic icon scale tip and will give it a go. Thank you.

    I found the issue. For some reason on the compatability tab of the sc fa properties it was set to run in compatibility mode for windows 7 and run in 640x480 screen resolution was checked.
    I have no idea why, I have never opened the properties for the game before. This is now resolved.

    To expand on Nex's answer:

    You have a sound bug which you can tell by the SND/XACT warnings. Simple fix steps are:

    Windows key > type: Control Panel > Open > Sound > Playback > select the Device you use: Configure > Stereo > finish configuration, Properties: Enhancements > Disable all enhancements, Advanced > no higher than 24 bit, 48000 Hz, Spatial Sound > Off, Restart or Shift+Shutdown (not just Shutdown) of PC

    If your headphones come with any applet/program, then you may want to disable that & try using the headphones without it. Similarly, if they use a USB or Bluetooth dongle to connect to the PC, see if you can connect directly without the dongle.

    Why is the FAF client so flaky?

    The client has been flaky lately (heh) because all of the architecture behind the client has been DDOS'ed the past weeks. The server admins have put in a lot of effort to combat this but in the end our resources are limited. It also doesn't help that Cloudflare (that we use for file distribution) has been a bit flaky too the past week.

    All in all I think your experience matches with what is going on; luckily we're working on it and we've even recently made a major step towards stability and we'd love to hear your feedback on that

    @magge Thankyou for your response.

    I restarted my computer twice. I also re-installed FAF. I also, checked my firewall 'allowed programmes list' as with all the updates something may have snagged on there. It now connects fine.
    Thanks for your quick response.

    There was a recent hotfix patch that caused this issue. I know it is frustrating; Creating more threads about it will not speed up the process. As mentioned in the initial post, a fix is being worked on. Please, just be a bit more patient.
