I can host a game but don't think anyone can join and cannot join any other game in the lobby. Did some testing on 2 pcs games will connect in the lobby if I choose in the settings>FAF>prefered coturns for ice> the IC adaptor for US on both PCS. When you remove and choose the Aus or none default Ice adaptor you cannot connect to join the lobby. Is this a known issue?

@magge did you exit the game not restart and then start a new skirmish game?
I have just tested on another PC Windows 7 with another account with the latest patch and client update.
Same thing happens any new created templates don't reappear when the offline game is exited and new skirmish game is started.
If you restart the skirmish game and don't exit the created building template is there.
As this is tested on 2 different PCs Windows 7 and Windows 11 it appears to have happened in a recent patch or client update.
Hi @magge I replaced the prefs file with an earlier one that I backed up sometime ago. Went in offline mode created a new build template and named it. It shows in the build templates. I then exit the game and restart another skirmish game when I go back into the templates the one I created and renamed is no longer there. Running Windows 11 with the latest patch and client build. It only works if I'm playing an online game and creating them.
Does anyone else have this issue?
I think it's the recent patch changes or client change.
This only has happened recently I think the recent patches have broken something or the changes are deliberate. As it now stands you have to start an online game in solo to create and save them. This makes no sense should be able to do this in offline mode and start a skirmish game and save the prefs file.
I think the recent patches have broken this. I am unable to save newly created build templates when playing offline in skirmish or when starting a game directly from the FAF exe file.
I can only create a new build template but now have to play an online game in solo mode to create and saved them. Anyone experiencing this or can it be fixed?
@Slykar have you tried disabling High definition audio in the device manager such as NVidia and Realtek.
Thanks @MostLostNoob @magge have had several games now no crash logs after each game.
@gamersbemad I think I resolved this in my last game no game crash log.
I played the game in Window mode and also enabled IPv6. Give this a go and see how you go. Also disabled Acronis cyber protect.
@MostLostNoob The C drive installation did not work. Restored a backup to where the vanilla FAF game was in the G Drive.
Finally I think I have resolved the log crash issue. I made some minor changes. I played a game in Window mode and also enabled IPv6 in the settings. I also disabled Acronis cyber protect even though exceptions were added.
There was no game crash log. May help others to giving this a try if they are experiencing this.
@MostLostNoob Yes I used Revo uninstaller to completely remove the DVD version of the game. Then I installed steam version and directed the FAF client to the Steam directory where the game is installed. When I still experienced the crash log with the steam version I went back to a restored backup on my PC back to the DVD version. On one occasion I did not get the crash log happen with the DVD version of the game. That was when there was a patch update on the game. But after another game the crash log re appeared. Does it matter where the DVD version or the Steam version is installed?. As I installed them on my G: logical drive not in the C directory where the Windows 11 OS is installed. Same partition but in other logical drive G: Is there a way for the gamedata to be loaded again maybe give that a try? I have asked in the game lobby and other players are also experiencing the crash log when exiting a finished game. I might also try another tab to exit the game not the one in the standard menu where all the game info is. On my other PC that is Windows 7 64 bit that my son uses and plays FAF there is never any crash log created when exiting a finished game with the latest client and game patch.
