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!

    Hey @HerbertFreir, I've randomly come across this post. It's a common thing in pretty much every online game that people will flame each other. All it is is a coping mechanism so they must not admit they made a mistake themselves. It's really just the easy way out for being anonymous on the internet. There is no way of saying this is common or uncommon across a community as a whole as it's mostly invididual. Estimating how often it will happen to you is nearly impossible. Sometimes you will be flamed three times a day, sometimes it won't happen for two years straight. But there is a tendency: The bigger and the younger (on average) the community the more likely it is that people will flame, as they don't expect to bump into the other one ever again. FAF is a small, "well aged" community, and therefore less likely to be that way, as you for sure will bump into someone again. What usually helps is narrowing down the amount of anonymity to a minimum by playing with people you know through joining smaller clans / communities. I, for instance, happen to run a beginners group within the FAF Dojo. It's me and my co-trainer running training sessions with up to a dozen trainees (0-1300 rated) three times a week, in the EU evening hours. Our youngest trainee is ~20 years old, our oldest is ~60 years old. We have gay / trans people, furries... We welcome everyone and respect each other. It's about having fun and learning together. If the above is appealing to you and you could make (some of) the training hours, feel free to join our Discord server and reach out to me. If you can not make my specific training hours, please still feel free to join, meet people you could play with, and maybe find another trainer that matches your time zone.

    Have you secured your Discord account since the incident? What steps have you taken to make sure it cannot be used for malicious activity again?

    Thanks for your replies, I tested Eternal Strategic Icons, in combination with Penguin's Icon Mod and ACU Highlight (those three mods seem to be compatible), and it looks a lot nicer with the size increase of 150%

    Does this happen when there are a huge amount of units in the game? As you say, the game will become unresponsive when there are too many of them on the map-sound and music will still work and you can select units, but most if not all of them won't follow new orders (air is generally an exception even in that situation). If that's your issue, I can only recommend lowering the unit cap; that said, it's entirely possible that those errors might point to another problem altogether.

    The system can't determine the path to your user directory, instead it just shows "??????". You probably have unsupported characters in your windows username

    @magge said in Solutions for common errors with the FAF client launcher or supreme commander: Reason Program is blocked or has wrong user rights Make sure security software is not blocking the client Make sure your windows account has rights to run the software Remove "C:\ProgramData\FAForever" folder; and reinstall FAF For testing purpose, run the client with admin rights. You also can change your FAF path for mods/maps from C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games to another disc.
