[Single Player refusing to function]

I have not. Even after months, I have not found a solution. I think I found it related to the AvorionServer.exe or where the single and multiplayer "servers" launch from as they don't appear anywhere, even in the task manager as a process. I am attempting to work through it today, with the same results. I was hoping the newest updates might have patched this issue, but it has not. 

 

Nothing has changed since then hardware wise, still running a GTX 2080TI and an Intel i7-10700K with Windows 10 Pro 21H1,  and 64gb RAM.

 

So far, I have tested killing anti-virus, firewall, and any other programs I believed would be causing interference with the local connection, but nothing appears to be working. This even interferes with multiplayer connections still. I also do not receive any errors in my event logs that would indicate major fault. The only thing is a warming about a DistributedCOM not having Local Authority. According to Microsoft that shouldn't be killing issue, and advised against making adjustments to it for privileges. 

 

I may have found a software conflict or issue. I run ASUS GameFirst IV as it is suppose to priorities applications' network data. I didn't think it would cause a conflict, but it appears to causing a routing issue. I kill the software and Avorion runs single and multiplayer servers multiple times with little to not issues. I am guessing in single player, GameFirst can't understand why it would route to yourself. The original problem I think started with my anti-virus, Bitdefender, seeing some programs as virus. I set the entire steam folders to be excluded to avoid future issues. I will update after some time to see if that was the resolves the issue.

I also play on Asus just started having this issue. NEVER BEFORE. Upgraded my unit this year. Gamefirst has now been DELETED from my pc. and servers start right up. Anyone playing Asus just delete Gamefirst.
