unhandled exception crash, and also when trying to close the game

Thank you very much for the quick response! I tried making those changes and have not had any unhandled exception crashes in the few games i have tried yet, but am still having the issue where it basically crashes when i try to exit the game. It is just annoying in that I have to keep task manager open on another screen to force it to end the task, but at least the game seems playable now.

@analyzenoob As strange as it sounds (no pun intended), crashing on closing/exiting the game is often associated with a sound bug crash.

Please go to client > top left menu > Show logs folder > logs > sort by Date Modified. From there, post the most recent game_21xxxxxx.log file (should be of the game that just froze/crashed) into here so those that can help have that data to look at.

Based on the link to that other forum post I deleted the game music files. I also changed the sound quality to 16 bit 44.1k hz just incase that would help rather than 48k hz.

I have attached a recent game log.

Unfortunately, another issue that seems to have just popped up now, is that for some reason I am not able to save new templates or make new changes to my hotkeys. I can save a template and then I have it for the rest of that game, but then the next game it is gone again. It seems to be the same for hotkey changes.

@analyzenoob You definitely still have the sound bug. Since you've already followed the steps I provided as well as those in the linked thread, then the only other thing that I can suggest is the you install a 3rd party device/driver like VoiceMeeter or VAC.

To help with any other issue you're having &/or future troubleshooting, Id suggest that you go to FAF client > top left menu > Settings > Forged Alliance Forever > Use FAF Debugger when starting Forged Alliance > check > click "Get the latest version of the debugger". This will write some more details in the game logs.

Configuring speakers to stereo is v important.

You could have also just used no sound switch.

Can you check file/folders permissions and check for read only? Are you using Onedrive?

So after all of this, the game suddenly started to crash whenever I try to join or host a lobby. Not sure what exactly caused it. I have attached the log which notes an access violation. Any ideas on how to fix that? I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game.

There were assumptions that Citrix may cause crashes of the game. And i see it presents in dlls.

@analyzenoob As 4z0t/Donnie stated, you'll need to either disable or uninstall the Citrix software as that does indeed interfere with SCFA/FAF.

Thanks! I just uninstalled citrix and now I can play again. It seems weird it kept me from playing even if it wasn't open but simply installed on my pc.
