single-player skirmish mode broken

[shifty]

Since I've installed FA Forever, my single player skirmish mode is broken. The interface is blank and it won't allow me to make any changes or start the game. Has this happened to anyone else? I scoured the forums and couldn't find anything. It doesn't look like any of the files in the FA directory have been modified lately, so I'm not sure what's causing this.

FA Forever does NOT change ANY of the original forged alliance files. It is impossible for your single player skirmish mode to be broken because of FA Forever. If you are having trouble determining the cause, you can always re-install forged alliance.

Thanks for the reply. That's what I figured, but I played a skirmish earlier today before I downloaded and installed FA Forever, and then later after I installed FA Forever, it was broken. This is what led me to be suspicious. I guess I'll just reinstall, though.

I can confirm that I have had the same issue as well. I played a single-player skirmish earlier in the day. I had a friend that wanted to play using Forged Alliance Forever.

We played and the online match worked well, but when I wished to play a single player skirmish match later, none of the map information would show up, and I was unable to change any settings.

I'll reinstall FA as well.

For the last time : We do not touch your original installation. It's impossible that it's broken. It's useless to re-install.

It's probably your prefs file that was alterted in an incompatible way with vanilla FA.

I know this is an old thread, but I can confirm this problem. My Game.prefs file contained the line "LastColor = 11," which was causing the issue. Switching this to 1 seems to have solved it. I have no idea why this happened, but the problem came up after my very first FAF game.

Because we have more colors (and soon more factions:) than the standard FA.

Where is the game.prefs file? I cannot find it for the life of me.

HI here, sorry for posting here. I cannot start new topic.
I'm trying to start single player (me vs bots) on current patch.
When I started from desktop SupComFA shortcut the 1.5.3599 version launches.
How do I start latest version?
