    Hi! Since July 16 I can't join or host any game — FA launches, reaches the lobby, then hangs on "Connecting..." forever. The ICE debug window and telemetry stay completely empty: no peers, no gathering, nothing. From my logs the game processes CreateLobby fine and the client receives GameState Idle → Lobby, but after that no JoinGame / HostGame / ConnectToPeer ever arrives, so the ICE adapter is never asked to connect to anyone. My lobby connection itself looks healthy the whole time (join requests get responses, I even got a game_not_ready error back once, and the game list keeps updating live). Last working game: July 15. Same silent behavior on client 2026.1.0 and after updating to 2026.4.1 — ~12 attempts across 6+ different games.

    Good! Maybe they'll actually be able to find the issue if more of us talk about it.

    @Nuggets said in TMM missing timestamps: @H-master said in TMM missing timestamps: Hey guys, Any idea on how to fix this issue for TMM: [image: 1769087042512-2d6dcbbb-19d4-4973-a5b3-90a1b81bb736-image.png] I've asked in chat, and apparently it's caused by a mismatch between the time set in Windows and a time on the FAF server. My time in Windows is set automatically, so not much I can do there. Is there something else I can do to fix it? Thanks! While I dont know about the issue or how to fix it... there is a way to change the time server for your PC. [image: 1769096816526-f5eeafb4-63da-4c1d-9013-c6fc7ec1b56d-image.png] I just have standard windows time server but I recently also had an issue (apparently my time was 30 seconds ahead so my 2FA-Code kept being wrong) with it and switched to something else. You can try by switching to pool.ntp.org for example You're a wizzard! [image: 1769098802055-83791b1a-1e3f-44c6-af4d-df83c681ce1f-image.png] Manually syncing the time in Windows fixed it. Thanks for the quick reply.

    Did you get anywhere with this? I’d be happy with single player even but I get audio crackling in crossover regardless of the known fixes - just posted in this forum about it

    Could you please post the log file from your game? That will help us track down the problem. [image: 1767340517681-32e7a995-8fd7-4171-8f14-3882714a631d-image.png] You should find a file named: game_xxxxxxx / Typ-Log there.

    Now sure if im allowed to bump this thread to acdd a solution but here goes nothing Type "App Volume" in the Windows Search or go into Windows Sound Control Panel and find the option App Volume and Device Prefrences Set Supreme Commander Forged Alliance to your headset, DO NOT SET IT TO STEELSERIES/SONAR. Now Windows will remember to always use your headset output instead of the Steelseries Virtual Output. [image: 1767143213060-5ed3cf20-d053-4e14-a865-b33f4abcb218-image.png]

    I'm not sure if the server that is responsible for the penalty knows who caused the game to fail to launch. The meaning of the colors can be found here: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/blob/develop/lua/ui/lobby/autolobby/AutolobbyConnectionMatrixDot.lua#L76-L88 The game is peer-to-peer. Everyone is connected to everyone else. That's why there's a matrix. Usually you only see your own connections. What you see there is a best-effort to sync the entire network state.

    Try and start a game once via steam and then try again on the FAF client.
