Terraform Patch v1.07 is out! It is rebuilt from scratch: less bugs, smaller size, new maps! See details below.
SyncFaction has been updated to work with latest Steam update and fixes game version detection for GOG, please use the latest version. Details below.

GOG version: You will need to manually replace sw_api.dll in the Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered folder with the one from here: https://github.com/CamoRF/Red-Faction-Guerrilla-Terraform-Patch/raw/main/debug/mp_fix/gog/sw_api.dll
Steam version: Fix already included in latest update from Steam.

If you've played game nights before, get latest SF version and let it do the update: https://github.com/Rast1234/SyncFaction/releases/download/v9/SyncFaction.exe
No need to waste time verifying game with Steam!

Make sure you're on the latest SF version and update: https://github.com/Rast1234/SyncFaction/releases/download/v9/SyncFaction.exe
If you suspect your game is corrupted, please delete the .syncfaction folder in data and verify your game
Sometimes after installing the required .NET version you will need to restart your computer for SF to work
DON'T install any mods or maps on top of the patch or you'll corrupt your game!
If you have both the Steam & GOG versions installed, lots of drives or SF is having issues finding your game install try putting SyncFaction.exe with rfg.exe in the respective game versions folder.
Nuclear option if other troubleshooting steps fail: delete the entire data folder and verify game in Steam. If using GOG completely uninstall the game and install from scratch.
This app release is not tested thoroughly so please be patient 😛

Once you've updated to the latest version of the patch it's safe to delete the \data\.syncfaction\mod_xxx folders
This is because previous patch versions are cached there and not needed since last update is not incremental

On the first loading screen before the main menu you should see Terraform Patch v1.071 ALPHA at the bottom right. Example: https://github.com/CamoRF/Red-Faction-Guerrilla-Terraform-Patch/blob/main/misc.vpp_pc/TEXTURES/SOURCE/ui_loading_init.png?raw=true
When creating a custom match the default options should have fleetfoot selected as the starting backpack.
You should see DLC Wrecking Crew maps when selecting a map such as Abandoned, Nordic Bonus, Ruins etc.
When people join your game they shouldn't see any errors.

All maps are included in the Terraform Patch and you don't need to install anything else. Join the FF Discord and subscribe to RFG Game Night event!
