Does anyone know how to modify the capture range of engineering units? It doesn't seem to be attached to the maxbuildrange of a unit.

Tech Support • How to point FAF at a different game .exe?

2021-02-09T23:33:40+02:00

How would one go about pointing faf at a different exe. So when a match is created, instead of running 'SupremeCommander.exe' it runs 'anselintegrationtestapp.exe' instead? Which is pretty much the same exe, just enabled Nvidiea freestyle/game filters for ebtter PostFX controll then this 10+ year old game allows.
Wanna check it out yourself run " mklink /H anselintegrationtestapp.exe supremecommander.exe " in a command prompt inside your supcom folder.

Is it unnecessary, yes, and?

Tech Support • Replay Could Not Be Started

2021-01-14T03:25:59+02:00

I tried opening a replay of a game I just played, but got an error instead. I was able to open up other replays, so it seems that it's an issue with this replay specifically. When I try to use the replay URL, I get a 404 page.

Error below:

Spoiler: show

FAF Suggestions • Please change billy nuke animation

2020-12-28T23:18:05+02:00

Hi,

May i humbly suggest to the dev team that you change the billy nuke animation from the current com-bomb animation to something else?
It is really not the same as a com-bomb or a nuclear detonation.
Preferably change it to the support commander explosion animation.

Thanks for reading.

Tech Support • Unable to connect to players with ice error

2020-12-13T12:23:17+02:00

The error is
20:18:12.724 [Thread-4] DEBUG c.f.i.i.Peer - Error while reading from local FA as peer (probably disconnecting from peer) Kampfkartoffel(131487)

Which just keeps spamming

I have my ports open(DMZ) and my firewall disabled.
I tried reinstalling faf and deleting the faf folder but didn't help.
It also causes the windows dns process to flare up to 100% + the client on my ryzen 2600.

Tech Support • graphical glitch: black strings reaching in to the sky

2020-12-12T15:26:31+02:00

Hi there,
I recently built a new machine and have FAF installed.
I've played a few skirmishes and keep encountering, at random, strange graphical glitches.
Specifically, buildings and/or trees will have "strings" or "lines" reaching from the ground up, infinitely, in to the sky. These strings also cast a shadow across the landscape.
I've searched the forums and haven't found anything relevant just yet.

Has anyone else encountered this before, and fixed it?
Many thanks

General Discussions • Unit prioritization

2020-12-06T13:39:19+02:00

Is it just me, or is unit prioritization completely off since the last patch? Cruisers shoot at anything except things that damage them.

I consider it to be so bad that I would like to revert. Is there any way to revert the FAF client to an older version?

Tech Support • Willing to pay $50 if someone can help me solve an issue

2020-12-05T01:25:34+02:00

So whenever I'm on FAF and click on the "play tab" games no longer show up and when I try to start my own the "Connecting to Update Server" box appears but never shows any progress (photo attached) and I just get stuck there. Because of this I am no longer able to play the game. If anyone knows how to correct this issue or can figure it out I'd greatly appreciate it. As for payment I can submit it through Paypal, Venmo, or whatever you prefer.

General Discussions • Question on proper use of gun com

2020-12-01T09:06:42+02:00

I'm currently trying to improve my play, and am running into some trouble. When I watch replays or casts it seems that gun coms are lethal against armies, but attempting to deploy similar methods in my games has universally led me to failure. Does anyone have advice on how to better use my com for combat? Is it all in APM or is there an underlying strategy I'm missing?
