Just played with photonic and everywhere.

Not really much difficulty with so many players i guess.
So went smooth, mostly struggled with unitcap.

Ending is pretty anti-climactic. Basicly waiting game after grabbing the nodes.

Oh and i had to give photonic a copy of the movies to avoid a desync. Thought that only sound was the issue...

I have a mission for you to test, it's improved Aeon misison 4 Entity

https://mega.nz/#!8poXyTwA!St6q94tUVoXP ... eVJEOPPIQg (Updated 23.1.2017)

unpack it into your maps folder, host any mission and in the lobby select "Aeon Mission 4 - Entity, speed2 Test"

Leave some replays for me to watch so I can improve it further.

Nothing new to report but just wanted to say I had the exact same problems Burnstreet mentioned, although mission 2 didn't end? the camera just kept rotating around the area endlessly, no idea if that is what is supposed to happen or not. I don't have the logs unfortunately since my log file was bugged and it was somehow 246 MB's

Played the 4 first UEF missions today, unfortunately only one worked flawlessly.
2 players, no mods

Unfortunately there was no game.log in programdata/faforever

1. mission
Cybran Commander did not die at 0 hp
5567396-Burnstreet.fafreplay

2. mission
worked

3rd mission
the aeon assault did not end although there were no enemy units left
5567757-Burnstreet.fafreplay

4th mission
t3 build tech did not become available when the goal was to build 3 t3 radars - unwinnalble
5567845-Burnstreet.fafreplay

Will it be possible to make the ally expand to further bases if the mission goes that far? (maybe after the player have completed some objectives during the mission)

Thats planned, qfter the cybrab base is killed it will expand there.

Sadly, the mission failed to update after we took the first base across the sea.

Thanks for the report, I know where I failed.

Just played Prothyon-16 with 3 players.
All went well until we had to transport the trucks and morax had to gate out.

Someone transferred the trucks to me so i could transport them to the quantum gateway.
There i gave them back, but the mission didn't want to trigger, not even after ctrl-k of trucks. (donated units are different units?)

Morax needs to leave the scene, but he happily stayed in his base.

Additionally, I made two attempts to play the forth cybran mission (Mainframe Tango), one solo one with another player. Both attempts resulted in the map loading, but neither ACU spawning, no 'cutscene', or anything. Just a map with no ability to do much of anything.

I have uploaded both logs below.

Both are forever.log, those are for problems with client, for game I need game.log

Just watched a replay from my my mission: ThetaCivilianRescue

When the game ends the camera should rotate around the player ACU. But this didn't happen.
Instead i got this error:

Code:: WARNING: Error running lua script: Army < 0 passed in stack traceback: [C]: in function `_c_CreateEntity' ...ed alliance\gamedata\mohodata.scd\lua\sim\entity.lua(11): in function `__init' ...alliance\gamedata\mohodata.scd\lua\sim\vizmarker.lua(15): in function `initfn' ...data\faforever\gamedata\lua.nx2\lua\system\class.lua(258): in function <...data\faforever\gamedata\lua.nx2\lua\system\class.lua:246> ...faforever\gamedata\lua.nx2\lua\scenarioframework.lua(1858): in function <...faforever\gamedata\lua.nx2\lua\scenarioframework.lua:1824>

The error comes from CDRDeathNISCamera -> OperationNISCameraThread
I think it has something todo with VizMarker. This class uses self:InitIntel to give vision/radar/omni to a certain area for a certain Army, but since the obeserver is -1, it gives this error.

1st replay also desynchs for some reason, but 2nd doesn't.
(I saw the error in the 2nd replay but that one takes 40min, so i tried to give one that wouldn't take forever to trigger the error.)

Got a desync part way through the UEF vanilla campaign (Mission 1 Black Earth) playing coop with a friend. Sorry I looked at the faforever log and its all dated today so must have been overwritten since I played the coop mission?

A few suggestions:
Would be be better if when playing the campaign missions it autoselected the appropriate faction in the lobby (I tried it with other factions and it doesn't work) and there was no option to select another faction.
Also its not obvious that it is the hosting player who must fulfill the mission objectives e.g. if the non-hosting player builds 3 mexes and 3 powergens this doesn't trigger even the 1st set of objectives. Is there no way round this?

Thanks for the hard work so far - it is appreciated.
