Hotkey integration was so long ago that I doubt anybody still knows where or how you would find the original mod

It doesn't exist. Technically it's possible but unlikely to find someone to do it.

We need some screenshots

@ZOMEBODY This is not a new issue. The error message pins down the problem exactly.

I highly doubt that zip compression has magically improved recently.

You have some weird Windows issue, that the process claims it needs more permissions (admin permissions) to run the windows core dll to open the browser.

There is a potential threat where people upload a malicious zip file that is only a few kb small, but unpacked a few gigabytes. Your file seems to have a similar compressed<->uncompressed ratio, which triggers the error you quoted. This can usually only happen on maps that are basically empty, flat terrain and have no textures. Add some more content to your map and the error should go away.

Great project! And thank you for providing all these files! It inspired me to have a stab at it as well. I redesigned the legs to address the structural issues and did some other minor improvements. Here are some pictures of my version:

Dear commanders,

over the years, memory usage of the FAF client was regular subject of complaints. We worked hard to figure memory leaks and reduce memory usage. Our maintainer assumes, that memory issues >1GB are a thing of the past. But I am not convinced yet. Thus, we need more data and feedback.

Therefore I challenge you: Send me your worst RAM usages images from your task managers. Minimum requirement is it's from version >= 2026.4.0

Thank you!

Also it's not that "I need it", I don't have access to the mod client. But I know a couple of folks, who usually come with the pools, have complained about the lack of options in the past.

I was under the assumption you have access. Then just forward my message to the people complaining please.

Raise a feature request in the github repo then and explain what you need. Nothing will be done if a feature request only exists in someone's head...
