What's weird about the caching behavior is that I had them working, then stopped working after I had watched a replay that required downgrading -- odd because it does cache by game version, seemingly.

I suspect we'll have to tinker with the games cache mechanism from the client to alleviate this issue.

Nice work Poch

That's a really good point... the shaders get cached so the 'fixed' shader may not have made it to everyone.

How to fix broken minimap cartographic background

2015-02-27T06:50:05+02:00

Hello

If like me your cartographic background for the minimap stopped working (or is not working at all), i found how to fix it.

Just delete this folder : C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\cache
(not the same as clearing cache in FAF app)

In my case it contained old versions (numbers below *.3640 for files ext). It's working again now.

Maybe the code that checks for the file needs some selection filter or something like that ?

Hope it helps
