    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!

    The game crashes sometimes

      @magge Hi! it has happened several times since the last time, but I have been able to play a few games without it happening

      Here is the last log in a game without UI mods, where I got the same crash (the game froze)game_22650909.log

        I think I've noticed that happens when I move the camera or zoom in/out.
        I am not sure if that is the cause, but I seem to notice that it has happened when I do that.

          @splashgg I don't see the usual message in any of your logs, but what do you have set in the in-game Options > Video > Primary Adapter; full screen (resolution, refresh rate) or Windowed?

              @splashgg In that case, we can eliminate that potential issue as being the cause of the crash. Unfortunately, like magge, I also don't see anything in your logs that could be potential causes for your crashes.

              Hopefully somebody else will be able to assist you.

                @magge Hi, it happened to me again while playing, now I recorded it (I'm getting more and more suspicious that it's something that happens when I zoom in or zoom out)

                  You said they didn't find anything in the previous logs but I'll upload the current ones in case they are useful:

                  game_22871322.log

                  client.log

                  irc.log

                  ice-adapter.log

                    Thanks for providing more info - Unfortunately, I still can not pinpoint what triggers the crash. It seems some LUA script has a nil error, but no clue why, maybe that is even just a side effect of something else.

                    If you could reproduce it every time, it might help to narrow it down. My random blind guess would be, that your RAM might reach its maximize size and then crash the game at random.

                    Because: It seems you have 88% RAM already filled, but Supreme Commander is only at ~512 MB when it crashed. It can raise up to ~4 GB when you play a game and if you have no pagefile to catch "spilled RAM" it could be responsible for those "random crashes" when SC uses more RAM than you have available.

                      @magge Hello again Magge, thank you very much for your attention 🙂

                      It happened again and I was all the time checking my RAM percentage, I did not look at any peak higher than 87% this time.

                      As far as I see it is a very rare and infrequent problem for other players, to some probably never happened, but to me it usually happens in 3/10 games, maybe this is more likely to happen to you if your pc is not good.

                      In my case my PC has:
                      i5-8250U CPU @ 1.60GHz 1.80 GHz
                      8.00 GB RAM
                      Intel UHD Graphics 620

                      One of my friends I play with had exactly the same thing happen to him 4 months ago, just once and it has never happened again to him, his pc is pretty decent.

                        @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
