Is Fog Of War tested as working for this build for multiplayer?
No, we haven't looked much into FoW. Latest information we have is that the modern CnCNet renderers as well as game patches have fixed the crashes the majority of the time, but its stability is not guaranteed hence why we haven't added an option for it.
As far as debugging goes, you can just launch the game regularly and attach to Game.exe with Visual Studio, if you have our Vinifera source code checked out and a solution generated with CMake.
