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!
Tbh - i saw this - but what process caused it. Is it FAF related? Looks like, because Java is mentioned. The questions is - can I do something on my side or is it an error in the client?
I don't wanna flood, but now I could link my FAF account to the Steam (guys at help section supported me) and to the client (I'm so happy ).
I was an error with my nickname hehe. Problem solved.
YEAH!
I"m having the exact same problem. I even downgraded back to previously working 1.2.1 and issue still persists. I have to restart client about 10-15 times and then finally after 30 minutes it will connect. I did notice the client has no problems authenticating. When i reinstalled i was asked for usual log in but i tried with incorrect password and i got feedback immediatelly. But after entering correct password it just went straight into spinning loop of death for a long time, even after restarting client.
HELP!!!!
The problem is that it takes FOREVER (pun intested) to log in...
Anyway, in my case the only time it happens is when I can't connect to aeolus for w/e the reason.
The client is just trying to write down the lines about how it's not connecting until it bugs out after taking all the ram it can and starts using the CPU
I fixed that by wiping everything out and reinstalling FAF along with both games.
The file that contain presets is actually Game.prefs.
My guess is that I broke it somehow by manually deleting the build template from there. Maybe I will test this out later and will post results here.
