Start Menu is broken

Rowey

have you lauched the game via GOG befoer playing on FAF ?

philsphilos

Yes, without any problems.

Jip

Could you record what happens?

philsphilos

I literally can't launch a game

Tick the box that you're ready

philsphilos

Am I that stupid? Spiler: yes I am. But the video settings are not working properly

How do I change them without start menu?

Jip

There's something broke with your installation regardless. What client version are you running?

philsphilos

It reads 2022.8.0. - sorry for the effort

Jip

That should be fine, but it appears you're missing assets still. We'd need to see the logs - you can find the logs folder via the bar menu in the client (top left corner)

philsphilos

@jip There it is client.log
Do you need any more?

Jip

I'll need the game log instead!

philsphilos

@jip Here is the complete folder - thanks in advance logs.zip

It appears that the game does not manage to load in some files from the base game. They are mounted, but perhaps they are corrupt. Could you verify the integrity of the files of the base game, via Steam?

@jip i used the "repair" function at gog galaxy. so there was a small update, but without effect. Same issues. Supreme Commander is still fine - FAF isn't game_17845090.log

Jip

Same issues, the game can't find any texture file. I don't know how to fix it, it is likely something that is wrong with the installation or your file system.

philsphilos

Ok, thanks. I'll try a new install.

philsphilos

For the record - a new install with the gog version did not work and caused the same problems. So I've installed the steam version - this works without any problems.
