STEAM account

Postby UberNuub » 01 May 2019, 08:38

I recently merged two steam accounts and since then I have problems. I'm unable to join or create any game.
After trying to create/join a game all i get is a black screen without the "connecting" window. I can see the ICE window when i exit to desktop.
I reinstalled the game and client.
How do i find out which STEAM account/ID is my FA linked to?
Thanks!

BTW I tried both clients (Downlord's and Legacy)
How about unlinking and relinking? Is that possible?

the only thing that linking your faf acc to steam does is setting a value in our database so your user is allowed to log in to faf
it has nothing to do with your local install of the game or client or anything like that

so whatever your create/join game issue is it has nothing to do with your steam acc
please post logs (client/game logs)

Please update the "AI-uveso" mod.

Download it from here:
viewtopic.php?f=88&t=16381

[edit] just to explain:
Code: Select all
warning: SCR_LuaDoFileConcat: Loading "c:\[...]ai-uveso\lua\ai\lobbyoptions\lobbyoptions.lua" failed: ...lobbyoptions.lua(114): unexpected symbol near `='

This error means there is a syntax error inside this file. (And there is no error inside the original source file here on my PC.)

Looks like the file was corrupted by updating with the java client. (happened several times before, also with other mods and maps)
To fix this you can only delete a mod and then redowload it with the java client. (or from the topic i posted)
Don't update a mod with the java client at the moment until a fix is released.
