Thanks for quick answers. That is unfortunate.

I will put this account to sleep, you may even delete it if you like. I stay with my old account for now.

Hello,

recently I stumbled over the account credentials to my 9+ year old FAF account.

Is it possible to merge this account with the other account?

Which means:

• merge total played games
• keep the oldest created account
• rating should be transferred as well

Also, Nvidia comes with their own sound, NVIDIA High Definition Audio. And they install it every time with their updates...

I saw that error quite a few times these days from other people here as well - usually it is related to the sound card / driver.

Make sure every other sound device is disabled except your main device, and do not have any surround or other fancy setting enabled. Stereo only.

This ice cracks look cool as ice.

Unfortunate, I can not pinpoint the error. It seems there are some entries missing or not getting written to the file while the game crashes.

Maybe it has something to do with the sound system/driver. But that is a guess.

warning: Unknown DirectSound speaker configuration 8. Defaulting to Stereo.
warning: SND: XACT3DApply failed. Invalid arg

Does the window event manager have more information about the crash?

Usually, surround sound causes problems with Supreme Commander.

Just enforce stereo sound in your windows settings or sound software.

Обычно объемный звук вызывает проблемы с Supreme Commander.

Просто включите стереозвук в настройках windows или звуковой программы.

Cybran, one of the biggest advantages, is their stealth option. And not even once is that mentioned in OPs wall of first text.

Comparing some raw AA and hp values and coming to the conclusion that they are different does not make them unbalanced per se. Cybran navy was even buffed a little in the last patches.

The community and the balance team is open-minded for balance discussions and even welcomes it. If OP provides several replay IDs which underlines the unbalanced problematic with some clear bullet points why XY should be changed, then we can have a proper discussion about it.

But an unformatted wall of text with some raw value comparison, mixed with some personal feelings, is the wrong approach to start a topic about balancing. It will just end in misunderstanding and backbiting, because everyone assumes he/she/it knows it better, because of different game experiences.

I would suggest to OP that you play a few games where you show us the problematic with real game examples and start a new topic about that, with the IDs and bullet points. I would be happy to take apart in that discussion.

No - most likely it is something on your end.

The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

Without access to the source code, the rewind is not possible, very unfortunately.

@maudlin27 It is the rich only version.

Suggestion:

1. A filter for custom games like

• do not show me games with map XY
• do not show me games where rating range is under/over 1000
• do not show me games where title has the following keywords in it [noobs only, welcome all, noob party, any insults, only RU, etc]

2. Show me when the host has created the game. 5 minutes ago, 1 hour ago, yesterday

If you would play on a different map than "Only Astro Crater Battles RICH 4x4" than things would be a lot different. It is a heavy turtle map without many tactics and gameplay elements you would have in a "normal" map. (Examples: Raiding, drops, TML, etc)

I can understand your thoughts about that topic when I have your favorite map in mind.

But I can not understand the most other assumptions you make without seeing a replay ID.

Like "Flak can easily rip apart every air unit" or "You also cannot easily get in my land when a few pd simply block specific entrances." -> You mean the ONLY little gap entrance you have on your only played map?

Could you help me understand your balance thoughts with some replay IDs which demonstrate the problem?

Have you tried without the mods, especially the

description = "Common ModTools v1, toolbox for other mods"

Hello,

it would be much better if the people who have problems with the client need to follow a certain very basic template, otherwise their topic should be removed, with a friendly reminder.

They are just spamming - in best case scenario - their crash dump without any formatting/context or information about the system. They do not tell us what they have already tried to solve it, so we can all increase our post counter with asking the same basic questions which should be already answered in the first place.

Furthermore, they spend zero effort into it and expect we have the all solving magic glass ball ready for them.

I would like to see that the process is more fluent, so the mods and community can help them faster and with high value answers.

Some ideas to brainstorm -

Map generator can not create the map file.

Your OS or Antivirus is blocking it, I assume, because you deliver zero information about anything else about your system.

Awesome.

Looks very helpful, I guess it is only suggestion that someone else who has the skills to do it.
