RE: Crash on Watching Replay if I Try Zooming In
Those mod compatibility issues can be really annoying to narrow down.
To fix this, enable mods one at a time to find which mod, or combination causes the issue.I know that you already experienced with debugging, but can you still share the game logs with debugging attached, just in case?
Just to confirm: you do not get the "scroll and crash" crash when all mods are disabled and you play on a default map, correct?

RE: The ReUI Slop department - minigames and other fun stuff
I thought this was originally intended as an April Fools joke? It was not?
FAF is associated with a USK 12 game, so casino-themed gambling mods may be questionable. The casino mod deserves a discussion regarding whether this type of content should be associated with FAF at all.

RE: Crash Upon FAF Client Create Game Start Up - ID3DXEffectCompiler: Compilation failed
Possible things to try (preferably on Windows 11 with the latest updates and newest drivers):
-
Prefer maximum performance and select the high-performance GPU for your graphic card.
-
Clear NVIDIA shader caches (DXCache / GLCache)
-
Reinstall DirectX 9
-
Run Supreme Commander in window mode, not just alt+tab it into the background
-
Disable full screen optimizations for SC
-
(Advanced) Some people, including myself a few years ago, have had good results with multi-monitor setups using dgVoodoo2. It may also help resolve your issue even on a single monitor:

If you have trouble understanding the suggestions, or AI does not help you out, just create a new support thread and 'imme a ping.

@lv-426 Are you playing on a laptop? Those can switch between integrated and dedicated graphics cards.

RE: Dont Instal FAF
It is unfortunate that you are experiencing technical issues. However, presenting the situation in such a theatrical-esque manner is not helpful.
I would recommend heading over to the FAF support section, providing the relevant logs and describing the issue. People will be more willing to help when you make an effort to share useful information.

RE: Com explodes suddenly without enemy fire or ctrl-k
It is not an union game. You most likely pressed Ctrl+K
several timesby accident.It was at 18:21

RE: How to fully reinstall the game (I have an annoying bug I cannot fix)
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 ForeverIf 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.

RE: Why am I unable to view local replays from a few years ago?
What is the replay ID?
What error message are you getting? -
RE: Supreme Commander is crashing on launch
It is probably not the same issue. OP has the 0xc0000005 error (no log was provided unfortunately), which could be related to many things, making it tricky and time-consuming to debug in my experience.
You, @shribodisatva, only have the XACT error, for which you may find a solution in that following thread.

RE: Client Crash after start
There is no error in the log that would explain the issue. I do not know why compatibility mode is required, but at least it works with it.
-
RE: Client Crash after start
What OS are you using? Usually compatibility mode is not necessary.
Please reproduce the issue again and then share the new client.log.
-
RE: Client Crash after start
The error message appeared in that support thread, does any solution there work for you too?

RE: i cant play this shit because this shit cant open i dont know what help me plese
There is a high chance that this is caused by using Cyrillic characters. Try ASCII instead, for your file path.

RE: Game error on new PC, unable to play FAF
Have you started SC once via Steam/GOG, and have you created a profile in SC?

RE: Game error on new PC, unable to play FAF
@zalbor I believe the game fails because the executable path is wrong/does not exist, or software security is blocking access.
