      game_24325122.log

      Here is the log from Docsyn if any of y'all could spare your eyes to look into it for a moment. I've combed through it but don't know what to look for.

      Thx in advance.

      I did a run yesterday with 4 buddies against 5 AI and yea I got desync and it pointed to me. And later that night me and another friend played without desync. A couple night before we were 3 against 3 AI and we played 6 games without any desync. It seems that more human player it trigger desync for me.

      I heard some people say it can be hardware related like you are having a certain chips or network card etc etc or even usb wireless headphone. I have never got any desync on my laptop and I have played like 50 games, I only get it on my desktop and I have exactly same stuff installed (program wise).

        Would still love some help tracking this down if anyone who knows their way around a log file could take a look, or give me some idea what I'm looking for. We play with a few mods, but nothing obscure, and these desyncs are recent and seem to be ruining at least 1 game every week or two. I know I had Docsyn turn on the FAF Debugger. Hopefully that's reflected in the log.

          Check your game files of Supreme Commander Forged Alliance via Steam.

              Seems like you fixed the xact error - that is good progress.

              Can you reproduce the issue without any mods?
              If it happens with mods, you have to enable them one by one to find the mod that is causing the issue. It is tedious, but there is no other way.

              By the way I found this funny. I have been experiment lots lately. Doesn't matter if I play with mods or not still desync. BUT! I only get desync if we have more then 4 AI. With 2 or 3 AI it works fine without any desync 😂

              I tried with my laptop, that one doesn't have any desync with any numbers of AI. So I am not sure what is going on. I start to think FAF doesn't like 14gen cpu lol

                No, I have an i9-14900K, and it works flawlessly with SupCom, including multiplayer.
                But I also use an older SupCom .exe because I experienced occasional desyncs with the newer ones, but only in AI matches.
                I haven't tested the latest version, so I can't say for sure whether a desync could actually be caused by the .exe.

                  You could check your RAM for errors:

                  Windows: Open the start menu and type in “mdsched” and click on “Windows Memory Diagnostics”. Click on “Restart now and check for problems (recommended)”. Windows will restart to test the memory.

                  If no errors are found, you could also try reducing the clock rate of the RAM in the BIOS.

                    Oh I am interested to try that as well, how do you run old SupCom.exe? I just install FA Forever on Steam and install FAF Client, thats all I have done.

                      Sadly none of those method works, still get desync. Found no error and I lower ram and disable XMP.
                      Guess I am stuck with 2v2 lol and when I want to do more, I play on laptop.

                        I created a desktop shortcut to C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin\ForgedAlliance.exe and use it to start the game (I host LAN multiplayer through the in-game menu).

                        I replaced this ForgedAlliance.exe with an older version on all computers in the network.

                        In the next few days, I will test the dev and FAF exe again. Then I can tell you if the actual exe is the issue.
