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!

    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.

    @White_Magic said in Black screen when i join a lobby: yes, the same problem Idk what you mean by that. You say yes it works via steam but it also has the problem? xD I'm assuming you just mean it also doesnt work on steam. Then its a game issue and not faf. I'd recommend using the steam launch parameter to open the game in windowed mode. Unfortunately I dont know it from the top of my head, so you would need to google it. It could be a problem with the resolution, thats why im recommending trying this

    @jip , I've also noticed this error. It doesn't always occur, though (FAF campaign). Currently, restarting FAF several times seems to fix it. I thought this problem was also mentioned in the Discord. Or does it just sound very similar to me? https://discord.com/channels/944679492293636116/1258122595581296700/threads/1349266932964261929

    Where do you receive the error? Client? (Which client, which version)? Website? Somewhere else?

    Sounds like the update didn't replace all files. An unpleasant but common issue with our installer. Uninstall. Manual delete all remaining files in C:\Program Files\FAF Client, then reinstall.

    If you watch a replay the game log will list out the mods and versions being used at the start of the game (F11 brings up a window that lets you view it, and faf creates a text file named after the replay ID). The database/client doesn’t have this data though

    @ss_rakesh I did two folders as you suggested with the same content. Placed them in FAF Client Map folder (you can find it from FAF client top left) It works perfectly. I don't have the path you suggested,, but placing them where all the other FAF Client maps are, it works and no visual glitches.

    I think if you disable some of the ui party options it will help. Also whenever you have an issue like this disable ui mods to find out what the issue is

    @BannedPurple Can you please create a moderation ticket on FAF Discord? The moderator team will help you sort out your accounts. Please do not create any additional FAF accounts, as we have a single account policy. Additional accounts will be flagged as smurfs, and your main account will receive a penalty, but with your help we can prevent that.

    Hard to say from just this image, but a short connection drop is possible. You were still connected to some users, so it is not all your fault. (edit: unless ice adapter where still in process to reconnect you to the users again - you can monitor the ICE adapter debugger to see what was going on) To narrow it down, you will have to monitor your network for interruptions, packet loss and timeouts. E.g. running WinMTR while the issue happens, and looking at places like Windows event viewer for anything unusual.

    Suddenly. The new version of the client 2025.9.0 has just been released, I updated it and now made the first connection. The client connected by itself without any other things. This is great! Thank you!
