@thinker I have merged your other thread with this main one to keep the discussion organized. Let us keep the conversation respectful, please.

The sooner we start to test it, the faster we can identify and resolve any bugs. Even if there are some short-term issues, it is absolutely worth in the long run when we get a more stable connection system. Count me in for helping to test it out.

Thanks for the effort, appreciated. Looking forward to using the mod.

I can pinpoint my issue to the state of the in-game window.

If it is set to 'windowed' (does not matter which resolution) the bottom build panel does not show up.

As soon I switch to full screen (again, does not matter which resolution, even 800*600 works now) the build panel shows up. I do not even have to restart SC to reproduce that.

Is it possible to fix that behaviour?

Seems you have quite a few active mods - To further narrow it down, test if everything works fine without any mods; afterwards you have to find which mod or combination of mods is to blame for the crash.

Contains: warning: SND: XACT3DApply failed.

Take a look here: https://forum.faforever.com/topic/4084/solutions-for-snd-error-xact-invalid-arg-xact3dapply-failed

1. The 'advancedpriotities' entry in the Game.prefs:

            AdvancedPriotities = {
                windowHeight = 140,
                posY = 500,
                AttackConstructionLeftValue = 600,
                AttackOrdersLeftValue = 50,
                Preset = 'strogo1_1',
                FactoryConstructionRightValue = 1400,
                buttonLayoutSeparate = {
                    { },
                    { },
                    { }
                },
                windowWidth = 120,
                FactoryOrdersLeftValue = 50,
                posX = 50,
                FactoryConstructionLeftValue = 600,
                showSeparateWindow = false,
                lockSeparateWindow = false,
                hideAbilities = false,
                AttackConstructionRightValue = 1400
            },

2. Primary monitor: 2560 x1440 I use only one monitor for gaming. SC runs only on the main screen.

@SealingSatyr511 said in Black Screen with mod v6 'Advanced Target Priorities EVO':

Do you use a second monitor ? if yes, left or right display ?

3. Yes, bottom.

Edit: BTW, there is a spelling mistake:

For 'advancedpriotities' is the "r" missing; 'advancedpriorities'

With v8 I do not get any black screen anymore, but unfortunately, I do not get any bottom build panel when I select any unit. (no other mods active).

If I activate the mod v6, I just get a black screen when I start the game. Even when I disable all other mods. Can you have a look, please?

The requested operation requires elevation

You do not have permission to run it.

Share the game log, please.

Blind guess: Try to remove the underscore '_' from the path and try again

Have you created the folder "FAF_Cache" manually, or was it created automatically when you have run FAF Client?

Caused by: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException

Your security software is blocking access, or you do not have permission to access certain files, so FAF can not update properly.

Can you provide the replayID and the timestamp where the crucial naval fight(s) happens, please?

side question: You can simply delete them from the mod folder.

Try to change your default browser and try to log in again. If still does not work: check if security is blocking anything.

Does it happen without any mods activated?

I see nothing related to AI that could cause an error. Please enable the debugger in FAF settings, reproduce the issue and post the new log.

However, I see:

warning: SND: XACT3DApply failed.

which will cause issues. Possible fixes: https://forum.faforever.com/topic/4084/solutions-for-snd-error-xact-invalid-arg-xact3dapply-failed/1?_=1701727567076
