      @katharsas said in Faf Client crash (it becomes unclickable or fully black):

      Try disabling GPU / enabling software rendering by adding -Dprism.order=sw as an additional line to C:\Program Files\Downlord's FAF Client\downlords-faf-client.vmoptions, also remove -Dprism.forceGPU=true from the file.

      I just did that, and it still crashs.

      [edit]: This change seems to make the situation actually worse. Now it seems to crash each time I open FAF client.

        Ok well can't do more then just guess here. I would assume that either client data or something about your drivers is wrong/corrupted. Client reinstalling might help, or windows reinstall if nothing else helps.

          Ok, thanks anyway for your time. (I already reinstalled client but it didnt change anything, maybe reinstalling windows will be the only option). In any case it seems I am not the only one to have this issue though (given the post from @clint089 )

              @eternal You ask me to put 3277 MB there?

                  @eternal You mean I should check if I still have the bug with older versions of FAF Client?

                      If that does not work - The fastest solution by now would be simply to reinstall windows, the problem is too obscure to debug it for hours/days to have "maybe" a solution, especially if you are not that tech-savvy.

                        @magge fastest solution - use my client.

                        At least he would be able to play games

                        or use legacy client, i guess it is still in work
