[SOLVED] Game Freezes when loading a replay

Postby Aamon_Ra » 14 Nov 2016, 01:48

Hello,

My game freezes on the loading screen ("In Transit...") when I try to watch a replay. I can hear the game startup sounds for like half a second before the freeze, so it must happen right before the map is displayed.

Earlier today I reinstalled FAF because I realized I put it on my SSD, so I reinstalled it on my HDD. My game is on the SSD though.
(The reason for this is that it seems like FA constantly downloads & writes updates data (at least it does almost everytime I start a new replay, switching from 3661 to 3662 and vice versa, not sure if that's intended either btw) (I later realized this data is still written on my SSD, since it's in ProgramData\FAForever... If you know how to change that i'd appreciate !))

I cleared the cache, and I tried many different replays. I installed my game yesterday, so it should be clean, too. My drivers are up to date.

Before reinstalling, I had no issue whatsoever with replays. CookieNoob advised I should post my replay.log and forever.log here, so here they are :)
Thanks.

Ok so it would seem that the few mods I had on my first install (GAZ UI, Notify and PWN desync) were still considered 'active' (green in the list) by FAF in some way, although since I didn't re-download them after reinstalling, the game would freeze. That's my understanding at least since I solved this by 'removing' these mods and then redownloading them. I guess some files weren't properly uninstalled ? Or mabe the mod list for my account is stored on the server ?

Anyway, case closed :)

GAZ UI is integrated into faf, don't redownload and install, you might break something ;D

Oh ok, that's new (I haven't been around since a couple years)

Thanks for the info. (why keep it in the vault then ?)
