Problem with flags?

Postby MobiusBE » 18 Oct 2017, 12:35

Hello!

Since yesterday I noticed that a whole bunch of people, including myself, don't have a country flag anymore. It just shows a '?' in the client instead of the country flag with the note to contact support on the forums.

Yesterday evening, I played a game with 5 '?' flags. I've never seen this before :).
Is something going on?

Kind regards
Mobius

would be nice if you guys could provide client logs so that the devs can look at them and maybe find the issue

I will post another client log tonight when I'm home. Yesterday I played with like 3-4 people with '?' flag again so that should contain something :).

As promised, I provide some more logs.

To put everything into context: I just counted all the people in the FAF Client that have no country flag (took me 5 minutes lol).
At the moment I counted this, there were 682 in Aeolus chat in the client.

Of these 682 people, 98 had no country flag. So this seems to be quite significant.

Never before have I had my flag disappear, this happened out of the blue about a week ago. Many of the people I play with frequently (I'm thinking of Parp, Macrobio and Cavalonc for example), seem to have the same problem and these are regulars as well.

I'm here to test things out if I can help resolve this :)!

Installed FAF Client on another laptop yesterday for the sake of testing. Same result, can connect normally, but country flag is replaced with '?' "Country not found, contact support". So it's not system specific :). (Posted logs in my earlier post btw)
