@freemp said: How can I make sure my reinstallation is entirely fresh ? To quote point 2.1 from this thread: magge said: Make sure no leftover files are in: (Path may be different, if you have the GOG version, or you have selected a different installation path.) C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance C:\Users\%username%\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance C:\ProgramData\FAForever %LOCALAPPDATA%\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\ %APPDATA%\Forged Alliance Forever If you wanna save your blueprints and FAF settings for debugging/recovery purposes, you can make a backup of the Game.prefs, before deleting it. Unfortunately, I have never heard of such a UI bug that you encountered, and if resetting everything and disabling mods does not resolve it, then it seems that the core issue is related to something else. Some ideas/suggestions to look into: Is the Windows scaling percentage different? Are you using a different monitor resolution or a multi-monitor setup? Any overlays/tools that could interfere with the click zone? If you use your PC for gaming and not for work-related purposes, it would likely be the quickest way to simply reinstall Windows and trying it in the most cleanest environment again. That would already eliminate many potential causes of the issue.

Does it happen on steam version of the game? Rename your game.prefs file to e.g. game.backup and try again the FAF version.

We had somone willing to invest serious amount of money into the rights. Nobody is interested in selling it. And even then most probably the source code is lost, only intellectual property rights remain to be acquired.

I think you're running into a limitation on how the game computes the LOD (level of detail, when to render meshes (of units, props)) The same will likely apply to elements (effects, beams). As ZLO mentions, pushing these console commands cause artifacts. In 2006 (over 20 years ago!) these type of resolutions were unthinkable. It's not ideal, but one solution is to run in windowed mode and reduce the resolution?

It was the issue! Indeed I used the uninstall software, I never manually delete the folder. Thanks a lot!!

Here is the full log file: game_18496355.log Thanks!

@Eternal thanks! It works. I hope it will be more stable on my computer than FAF. Thanks again.

@magge fastest solution - use my client. At least he would be able to play games or use legacy client, i guess it is still in work

Hello. Thanks for the answer. The issue is that if I kill the process, I will lose connection to the game for sure. My point was that refafing can make FAF quit and if it happens, for sure, I will not be able to get the connection back. Thanks a lot.

Before this update it would mean you couldn't reconnect after losing connection to someone. Going forward I don't think it would help much unless you think the client lost connection to the server and failed to auto reconnect. But this also improved the reconnect logic so that should not be the case as often anymore.

@zokora said in It is not a bug that the engineers have a bigger reclaim radius when the fab has an attack move. At least not in FaF. Chris Taylor confirmed it was a bug, not an intentional design. This was covered in a great video interview, it's one of these (not sure which) https://www.youtube.com/c/ForgedAllianceForever/videos

Great, thanks for the replies!

We've all benefitted from this from time to time #blush

@cyborg16 said in Make the tactical missile from the t3 submarines more usefull: Not exactly. Cruiser missiles do damage over time, allowing plenty of time to build TMD near important targets. TML-subs could potentially be used for sneak-attacks on HQs, pgens, even ACUs, given a burst-fire mode (say up to 4 missiles in 2 seconds). This only works if there isn't already TMD however. It will almost never work like that in practice without making them insanely op. I already easily kill all of those things, other than ACUs, with sub tac missiles, and that’s without having to be incredibly tedious with manually launching missiles, and punished hard for forgetting to manually launch them. Honestly though, sonar should be nerfed to make subs better since the only real point of underwater ships it so hide them. No? The real point is both to hide and to protect from surface fire. Sonar is fine how it is.

@cyborg16 said in Forbid to kill underwater without weapons used that purpose: But static T2 tactical missile launcher can't do any damage at any depth. Odd. Why not allow TML to snipe T2 mexes or a parked ACU underwater? Is there a reason the missile detonates on contact with the water's surface? Yes, the missile detonates on the surface. This isn't a problem for other missiles (nuke subs can fire non-nuclear tac missiles with 3 splash radius, UEF cruisers have tac missiles with 3 splash radius). Those missiles can kill fully-built HARMS if you just ground fire. Whether or not to boost the splash radius of the TML is a balance decision. There are probably good reasons not to (it's already pretty strong, with extra splash it would be harder for ACU to dodge and maybe you could kill more buildings in 1 shot). On some maps, there are mexes close together, separated by only 1 spot for a mass storage. If the TML had a bigger splash radius, it would probably be easier to kill 2 with one shot. I don't even know whether that's hard to do now, but it would be easier if the splash was bigger. It would also make TMLs a lot better at firing into armies. If you kill a percy 1/3 of the time, it's viable to use TMLs to shoot at armies, but if you kill a percy 2/3 of the time because of bigger splash, it would become very viable to use TMLs against armies. I don't know if we want to open that whole can of worms just to try to balance an unlikely situation (trying to use static TML to kill HARMS just doesn't seem like it would happen that often)

Even if 7/8 players want the rehost I don't think forcing people to join lobbies is a good idea

would simple semi-transparent flat circle, rendered at the height of PD turret help? it should clip under terrain in places where PD cannot shoot... this can help, however it does not guarantee anything at all... maybe make pd spray fake projectiles (with same ballistic characteristics) and then you will for sure see areas where it can or can't hit (ray tracing lol, can reduce number of projectiles if performance is bad)... however no idea how that supposed to work if you move your mouse around a lot
