3641 UI Bug

Postby liqwidstyx » 13 Jul 2015, 04:07

Mouse hover overlay is broken. It does not show unit information for ally/enemy units, unless you have selected another unit.

Post logs. Make sure you're not using incompatible UI mods.

Also another bug with the new patch, replays played on 3641 are treated as they were played on 3640 so FAF patches the game for backwards compatibility and... the replays show bullshit instead of the game that was played D:

Sheeo fixed that this morning. Future replays will be fine, ones created while the problem exists may still catch fire.

Thanks is there a way I can manually fix an affected replay file?

I tried again today to reproduce this issue, but I'm not seeing anything wrong. Can you be a bit more detailed on what you're doing and what's wrong. Also, can you post your game preferences file? Perhaps it only shows up with certain settings.

Before you come screaming mods, MODS!!!!!!!!11 I have tried without them and it doesn't work anyways so I installed them back :P

Hey, last night you said I should disable any mods because of this line in my logs:
debug: Loading module '\000/lua/ai/customais_v2/sorianai.lua\000'

I've found the file it's in C:\ProgramData\FAForever\gamedata\lua.nx2 after you unzip the file. I don't think I can disable it on my own. If I delete the file it's downloaded again still with sorian inside D:

I have the same bug. I have disabled all mods I think.
Tested it by watching some random replay from the replay tab and in a game of my own.
In the game I hosted the UI behaved exactly like in the youtube video by BenDover.

In the replay when I am in the default observer perspective it doesn't show any info of any units/buildings because I cannot select anything or even draw a box. When i select a player's perspective it behaves again like in the youtube video above.

here's game.log of the ~10 second test game I hosted (UID 3640702): http://pastebin.com/FEFvBFXq
here's the replay.log: http://pastebin.com/W92yMAaR
here's my Game.prefs: http://pastebin.com/cCeVrvVN
