Hi, this is my first post from a few years absence.

I installed the Spring_0.82.6.1.exe + Ballanced_Annihilation V.19 + some maps. And I have a serious problem with fonts. It does not display correctly.
Please help!

Does it appear on the smallest maps? Like http://springfiles.com/show_file.php?id=716

Looks like youre out of memory, or you dont support some thing, but i bet its memory problem. How old is the laptop?

My Computer:
Windows 7
Mainboard: Gygabyte G31M-ES2L
Ram: 2GB DDR2
Procesor: Intel Dula Core 2,40Ghz
Unfortunately, the graphics card broke
At the moment is integrated, even though I played Star Wars Empires at War (2006) on high settings with no problem, but without schader.

Maybe something graphics card does not support?

I had this too. It had to do with some older lua script using the fontHandler in a (now) wrong way. Are you using inlinetip-bm by any chance?

i had something similiar in the past and it was not hardware related, i had it just with the inline widget, but after bumping at the dev it worked again. i dunno what caused this problem

Notice that I was disabling a widget (inlinetip-bm) right when it happened, in IceUI widget dialog (this is where the text displayed wrong for a fraction of a second and then LuaUI crashed).

In my locally modified version I have switched to gl.Text() which has other disadvantages, but no more glitches (as far as I can see):

please someone help, why for new version of spring hapen this and in older ones dont?
Inlinetip-bm? I'm new, so I do not know what's going on, but try to learn something.

Hmmmm.. I will try to update the mainboard drivers for Windows 7 Edit: it does not work. Now I installed 0.81.2 Version, and everything works, but the last version 0.82.6.1 does not work.
Can anybody give advice on how to fix this problem with font?

Press f11 ingame, disable all widgets, then relaunch spring, and enable one by one until the problem come back - then you have which widget caused it.

As written, I disabled all widgets (All widgets have red color on the list), after ran again spring (+ restart computer). And the problem with font is still the same.

Screen after restart:

I bought a new graphics card and everything to correct itself. I'm so happy :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
