    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%

    I viewed both logs and did not saw any issues. A desync means you have different or modified files that don't match with others players. Validate your game files with steam. (again) 2a. Delete everything inside C:\ProgramData\FAForever\gamedata\ 2b. Host a game with the FAF client to redownload the files into \FAForever\gamedata\ Delete all mods, also *.SCD mods that can be located in any \gamedata\ folder (kyros lobby as example) 4a. Delete the game.prefs file located in C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Game.prefs 4b. Start a game via Steam and create a new player inside the game (needed after deleting game.prefs) Then try again.

    Try using windows update to update all your drivers. Fixed it for me. For me it was an old USB driver.

    10 Home 21H1. As far as gameplay it varies, when the first crash happened the entire game just locks up, when I alt-TAB I find the debugger in the background. With this most recent crash the main screen (I play with dual-screen) completely crashed out. Yeah Forged has been rock solid up until that major crashing bug a couple of patches ago and since then (until now obviously). I haven't tried another map yet so unsure if its something with this combination or my system in general.

    The only way to modify units, of one army, is thru a buff applied to every unit - of that army - as they are created. While blueprint modifications are easy work - they cannot be applied only to a single army - since, at the time blueprints are loaded, the armies don't exist - AND - blueprints are universal to all players - and unchangeable once the game session actually begins. For example, the AI uses buffs to give it's units bonuses, much in the way you are suggesting. This work is done at the point of unit creation, and it identifies if that army is an AI army or not. Obviously, you would need to modify this particular logic to provide a path for your buffs to be run on a specific army, human or AI.

    I just experienced it on the forum myself. It might be related to the update or the changes to the login system. Needs some more observation.

    Пропиши в консоле d3d_windowscursor или похожую команду, а еще лучше установи ui мод nvidiafix из хранилища.

    Yes this was a bug in the previous version of the client wrt the uid. If you use 2021.10.0 then when you upload you will get a more descriptive error with what is wrong about the mod.

    We noticed issues with several ISPs even in Europe. Best is probably raise a ticket so many times until they see it as a serious issue

    Yes then most likely the client can't read the files and then assumes they don't exist

    i don't understand people that complain about rating in general,just keep on playing,this game has a huge learning curve you have to go through,well in some cases it's an actual learning cliff you are being thrown from,but that doesn't change the fact that you just need to keep on improving,especially when it's an rts and not a shooter that doesn't really have a different game mechanic,uveso ai might be also quite overwhelming for someone who is completely new to the game,i'd strongly recommend starting with campaign and when you're done with it,play the custom campaign(the missions made by speed and shadowlord) as they are quite harder then normal campaign.once you are done with those,play global->1v1->2v2
