Hello fires123,

without a "game.log" its hard to tell, whats going wrong.
But i can guess if you wish:

Go to:
"C:\Users\-YOURNAME-\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance"

make a copy of "Game.prefs"

Then delete "Game.prefs".

Start the game and test again.

I was under the impression that SC:FA doesn't create any .log files. (pretty sure thats a FAF feature)

I play all gameversions from vanilla to FAF, FAFbeta and develop. (need this for mod testing)

All versions can create a game.log.

You are welcome.

Btw, if you want a sceenshoot, simple press the "print" key on your keyboard, this will copy a screencopy to your clipboard.
Then start windows-paint and insert the sceensoot there. Save it, and thats it.
