personally i prefer faf to loud

Thanks but those were even causing the endless loop, just played another game almost two hours and then crash though there was a razer error this time so back to trying to duplicate.

I remember why i didnt use loud it a) doesnt work with mods endless loading when starting a match with any mod B) freezes and crashed about an hour into the match but stays up front of everything else but its not open in task manager and end up having to restart to clear it. perhaps something else wrong on my end? @Jip did you mean the stand alone launcher or the loud files in the mod vault? i was using the launcher.

Thanks, I just finished a game with no mods offline the steam launch hardly works which is why I downloaded faf in the first place. in-game time said 2 hours and 10min... I started that game around 6 pm it's now almost 2:30 am so now my question is how do I fix the lag? I was beginning to think the hyper-experimental mod was outdated and messing with stuff. Thanks for the links since I'm usually playing at work I do need to alt-tab out but before it used to straight crash it didn't with the most recent version of faf so I figured it was fixed. usually, the lag and freeze were when hitting around 1k units with the mai28 but after just playing the vanilla match I'm gonna say the lag is mainly due to age unless there is a mod or patch I'm unaware to fix the lag issues,

So I play offline and usually modded and if I play long enough it freezes to the point I have to task manager close it and then gives me an exit code 1 error. Other than modding the game and it is limited to only 2 GB of memory any other reason why it would lag out and freeze? I'm attaching the log for others to look over and critique but honestly, I don't know how to read it. I would appreciate someone to teach me and to BS with about this game. been playing it since its launch back in 2006? love the game and can't find anything else to scratch the itch. welp as the title say just gee wiz stuff and looking to bs and reminisce about this game.

@magge it would appear it was the ai mod, played a three hour game last night only thing was lag which is expected with all the units, changed the map file path so that may have been the fix as well but as of now im finding no issues.

@magge thank you ill should be able to update tonight. any other suggestions of what else to do? i did start a game with out the ai and it seems stable for the time being.

@magge how do i change the path honestly i didnt even set that path and there is an actual maps folding under forged alliance. thanks in advanced

yes but it is faster with the ai i can play for only about ten min right now before it crashes but its relitively new i used to be able even with the ai for 45 to 50 min ill try a game later with the ai mod disabled

game will randomly freeze usually zooming in and out

has anything worked @Heavenly i appear to be having your same issue

ummm.... ever see a log file be over 15mb?

So no clue whats going on. today i did a clean install of faf and scfa and even load. tried running it with all three and steam was the only somewhat success... it would give me the could not create direct3d error but with steam i could relaunch and play the game for about an hour before it would crash/freeze or just close, modified the shortcut with the /notvalidated and i get the error less on steam but does still come up. read your post about an hour ago and launched faf to get the more detailed log and it worked... for about an hour then crash like described. attaching log

same issue i can launch the steam version through a modified shortcut with /notvalidated add but it crashes about an hour into play (an other issue im sure) but faf gives me the unable to create direct3d and i just did a clean install wiping all the old files and folder before reinstalling both faf and scfa. i can share my log if anyone is will to help or tell me what to look for in it.

@jip Thanks ill figure out a work around... it may have worked on my old pc because the game was installed and run before citrix was maybe i can uninstall it and have it work again. thanks again
