@ZeRen
1v1 has been working for me for several months thanks to this : https://github.com/FAForever/faf-java-a ... -518974334

I am confused...

Some more feedback regarding the crashing.

In-game crashes are rare, but replays still crash. On a hunch, I set my in-game quality preset to Low, and no replay crashing. Now for the interminable process of finding the right balance of candy and stability.

i can watch ~58min (in game time) replays without any problem. i'm not using the minimap tho. i have ~medium settings and bloom renderer enabled. for example this one: #10743176
https://replay.faforever.com/10743176

which replay did you watch?

[foodlfg]

the 1v1 patch is live.
you can play 1v1 without running a bash script.

thanks Axel12 on discord!

Hello guys,

perhaps you can help me out (again — waaay to long since I've played FAF)!

So, successes first:

• installed SupCom via steam + Proton 4.11; runs fine (other than the issues below)
• built Download's client from source & configured for FAF
• watched several replays from the vault (desync at end but otherwise okay)
• watched a couple of live replays (for a couple of minutes)

Now, the failures:

• the mouse cursor is prone to flickering (as are game shadows)
• the build/unit orders UI is messed up, both in vanilla SupCom and FAF: it's a tall, narrow region on the left of the screen
• seems like none of the UI mods are working
• hosting a lobby fails: game launches with a black window showing only the mouse cursor
• joining a lobby fails: same

Still don't know about 1v1...

Game launch options:

Code: Select all

PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 DXVK_HUD=full PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_DUMP_DEBUG_COMMANDS=1 %command%

I'm using the ./FixFAFPaths.py script (also tried without).

I see this at the end of my game.log; connection error? ICE not running? NAT traversal failure?
(On these points, I don't remember whether I have to do anything explicitly to get ICE running, and I haven't configured port forwarding, mostly because my router doesn't want to play ball.)

You shouldn't need to build DLs client from source, the tarball should work just fine. You can fix the flickering cursor by entering console with ~ and typing 'd3d_WindowsCursor'. UI can IIRC be fixed by pressing alt + arrow keys. I don't know about the other stuff, I'm running the game with Proton 3.x just fine.

Cyborg try Proton 3.16

[Cyborg16]

Thanks, will try that, though it sounds like it may not solve the net problems.

You shouldn't need to build DLs client from source, the tarball should work just fine.

Last two times I did that, I had to hack the launch script. Source is easier (just configure which JVM Gradle uses, and git pull to update).

Code: Select all

./gradlew bootRun

to launch. And BTW openjdk-11 as provided by my distribution works fine.

Turning VSync off fixed the cursor flicker (with both Proton versions). Alt+Up/Down changes UI; did not know that!

I see in my log that the ICE adapter failed, so that would be the reason I can't connect.

Code: Select all

2020-01-03 10:40:48.417  WARN 12263 --- [Thread-110] c.f.client.fa.relay.ice.IceAdapterImpl   : ICE adapter terminated with exit code: 1


The jar in question does not exist. I had to install lib/faf-uid manually, and I guess I need to install the ICE adapter manually too... methinks gradle should automate this. NVM.
