The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

    The LOG got over-written. I did try to recreate the crash but it ran without incident today. The system updated and shutdown after Windows Update last night, so this is a fresh restart and may have been a problem caused by Windows. To confirm, crashes did not happen on other replays, and not even all doobro's replays. These weird crashes only occurred on some of doobro's replays, even though he uses the same mod list in all his games. Restarting my computer wouldn't clear up the issue. I did have a Windows Update that stalled a few weeks back, and the issue appeared to show up after that update. I had Windows 11 run a verification, and it found and replaced some corrupted files. I am guessing the verification didn't fix everything, and the Windows Update last night may have corrected whatever was causing the unexplained crashes. At this point, i believe the crashes were caused by Windows.

    @kandaker said in Can't connect to FAF #2 (as requested): Perhaps it's some a**hole who got banner from playing. That is granted. The attack didn't target "default" endpoints that many services have, but against very specific parts of the FAF infrastructure that are quite unique. Unfortunately FAF was never designed against something like this, so we'll have to do some changes to protect us from future attacks.

    @nex said in keep getting two errors when trying to join a game or create a custon game: @chamone maybe the permissions on the faf directory are wrong and it can only be opened/run by an admin? fixing that should be the better solution as running any program that doesn't need it with admin rights is a bad idea. FAF runs fine from Program Files with only read and execute permissions. That is the default install location and the default permissions.

    Toggling one faction should already do the trick. You just need to trigger the client to send your faction selection to the server again.

    @magge said in Solutions for common errors with the FAF client launcher or supreme commander: Something is blocking the client to have access to the internet, or you have a very unstable connection. Check if your internet connection is stable Check if firewall is blocking the access Disable security software for testing purpose Try a VPN from a different country
