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.

    Not sure about the Sonar thing, but when it is part of the Steel series, then I would guess so. @magge said in Solutions for SND: Error, XACT: Invalid arg, XACT3DApply failed: The following software are known to cause conflicts with Supreme Commander or the FAF client: Steel Series GG Software Suite Steel Series and Corsair Driver Packages Creative Speaker Drivers Killer Audio/Networking Citrix Systems Overwolf Overlay Sophos VPN Asus GPU Tweak III The following hardware may cause conflicts: Intel Core stability issues in 13th and 14th Gen Processors (Discord Thread About The Issue: Link)

    Thanks! But as an aside, I found it all by myself and all is fine. I watched several replays and started a game against AI just to make sure!

    The first thing I saw in the log is: XACT: Invalid arg Head over to this thread to see every known solution about it. @XariUK said in Game crashing constantly: The game is unlocked via Large Address Aware, but for some reason, it was launching in 32-bit mode, hitting the 2GB limit, even though there’s plenty of RAM available. TMK, FAF does already apply the "unlocker" patch, you do not have to do it manually.

    I also think it's a shame that it wasn't implemented. Is this version available as a mod so that the work wasn't in vain?

    @bbi said in Game crashin Exit code 1, access violation 0x00000014: i believe there is something else Citrix causes issues for other users as well. If you are not dependent on that software, I would recommend uninstalling it to see if it will resolve your problem.

    Alternate method if you don't want to mess with game prefs: Make a new sandbox game, pick a big map with lots of space (optional: turn on cheats, set speed to +4 or variable. Just use cheats to get lots of mass and energy, don't use cheats to place buildings) Build all of your templates End the match On the new computer: Play the replay file Step in to your own point of view Select each of the things you built and choose "make template" End the replay You will have the templates saved, they will be there the next time you start playing This is also an easy way to share templates between different players

    @chenbro101 said in New PC - can't play - can't change the resolution - AMD: Ah I remember metal fatigue. Surprised someone else even mentioning it. Yes, my friend. Metal Fatigue, IG2, Forsaken, Railroad Tycoon... I love some pretty old games hehe. It's a pity IG2 and Metal Fatigue were not continued. Love them both hehe. Just to let you guys know: I have tested SupCom many times since yesterday and it's stabilized. I had no problems against AI and I played some big maps with 16 players. Everything seems to be working fine since that DPI thing. Thank you very much for your attention. I still didn't play on-line, but I think the game will work nice. Just one more thing: did someone change the fonts used in the game? I realized mine are a little messy and there are some phrases misconfigured in game lobby

    @splashgg Do you have the ranges mod enabled? If so, then maybe it's because of him, since I had the same problems with this mod

    In the Key bindings menu, under "Camera" category you will find everything. Activate free mode, then press space and move your mouse. You can do this at lower camera hights without free mode but then it resets automatically. Tracking is also there.

    Yeah, that's really strange. Yesterday, I had this update screen after I hosted a new game. Right after that, all settings were reset to default. I just noticed that I have a game.pref BAD file and a TEMP file from yesterday next to the actual pref file. So, I just copied everything from the temp file into the pref file, and now everything is back to normal. I can also rotate the templates with the mouse again, even though the option isn't in the settings. ... I don't really get it all

    Glad it worked : ) You might want to get some tools to monitor your CPU and GPU temperatur and make sure neither goes over like 87 while gaming.
