Font Issues
« on: February 02, 2016, 08:04:06 AM »
When I start attract mode all the menu items are blocks.

To fix I have tried:

in the config:
-specified the font path directly: c:\windows\fonts\
-changed default_font to verdana, then back to arial after that didn't work
-verified that the arial font does exist.

from the command line:
I ran:
attract.exe --font arial
attract.exe --font comic (still blocks, but when i pressed ESC to exit the exit text was in the comic font and I could read that.

I'm running this on windows xp sp3. Any help would be great, thanks!

-Matt

Backup your current attract.cfg and start fresh see if it fixes the issue.

It was a display driver issue.
