Whilst I sympathise on a personal level I think perhaps you might want to consider what else in the world might be happening which most people didn't think they would see in the 21st century.

CTRL-RMB (with or without shift) for formation move. CTRL-ALT-RMB (plus shift) for formation attack move.

My solutions to that exact problem are in that thread. Either disable on board audio in bios then restart and re-enable it, or reinstall drivers. The first solution is quickest if you can find the right bios screen

Sorry still don't understand what this does. Needs a before and after image to make it clear.

If you have cd with key you can try adding that to steam

@tagada thanks for taking the time to respond. And CheeseBerry for the testing!

I think they come with age and the inability to see tiny monochromatic icons without developing eye strain

The alternative to allow one to quickly try out ladder maps against an AI is to have a button in the lobby of a custom game to quickly choose randomly from amongst the ladder pool. Still wouldn't set up AI for you though.

You have XACT errors in your game log. Please set sound to stereo. See here :

Recently I lost a lot of sounds after a Windows update (in particular mantis firing). This has happened previously for me. In the past I found that disconnecting and reconnecting my headphones resolved the issue, but not in this case. I had to totally reinstall motherboard manufacturer recommended audio drivers (from ASUS). Unfortunately they come bundled with Sonic Studio and Sound Radar which even when all audio enhancements are turned off and sound is set to stereo still results in crashes with XACT sound errors in the log. I resolved this by completely uninstalling Sonic Studio and sound radar crap. Thought I'd post in case anyone else has similar issues.

Can you just not appear invisible on Steam? There may be other ways to hide the fact your spending too much time playing FAF as well Just Google it (or close the client!)

What about eco managers option to queue up mex upgrades by assisting with engineers. That's a nice feature, or is that integrated in FAF now?

Me too, disabling audio chipset in bios, booting, rebooting, switch chipset back on in bios. Faster than reinstalling drivers for me.

Yes is this proposed rebalance for team games (tg) on flat maps? Is that how FAF is balanced nowadays? Obviously long range direct fire units when they reach a critical mass are going to be powerful on such maps. But 1v1..? Also can you TML the shields?

If you are getting missing sounds when playing (sound plays once and that's it) then disable sound in Bios then restart, re-enable sound in Bios. See post 15.

Set sound to stereo and disable all enhancements. See here:
