Faf issues with replays

Postby This_Guy » 13 Sep 2016, 09:35

Hi guys, i posted a request for a fix a few months ago for no gains, so will try again.
I have been having troubles watching replays for the last 6months or so. Anytime i try to download a replay from the online vault, it has to download things from patch 3659, like units and textures, then just loads a black screen. When i try to watch from my local vault, it must also download things, but i can watch, however unless it is played on faf beta the game will desync as soon as opened. This will happen also to people who try to watch any of my replays.

Also, EVERY time i play a faf game, i must download the same things, but thankfully i am still able to try. I have tried to unistall and reinstall faf with firewalls off, tried opening as admin, and a few other things various others have advised me to try but i am still stuck.

I will upload my logs with this post. Hopefully it can finally get sorted. Thanks guys

Have you been running FAF as administrator? That could explain the troubles of updating the game version due to permission issues.

In that case, try to uninstall FAF, then delete everything in (and remove FAForever folder) in C:\ProgramData\FAForever and re-install it.

I usually do not run as admin, but have uninstalled and reinstalled then used admin and nothing has changed.
