Red and Green Squares instead of Icons
« on: November 02, 2003, 07:35:11 PM »
Downloaded the new Beta , started up AH2 , clipboard comes up and instead of field numbers I have Red and Green Squares .

Went to tower and looked out at the  Planes flying overhead and instead of seein  the P51 Icon over the planes I see Green Squares .

Also instead of seeing the Text telling me the frame rate I have a HUGE green solid area .

So all in all ,   all text in not readable , I am running an ATI 64 mg vid card , 512 DDR mem , 40 Gig Hard drive with 88% Free.

Any suggestions as to fix this would be appreciated.

I'm also seeing "blocks" in place of text.
The blocks are solid, in the color of the intended text.

This first appears on the opening screen...
Upper left where "version" should be in green is a grean block.
Center bottom where info is located on AH is a RED block.

The clipboard looks like the picture someone above posted.
Inplane icons are blocks as well.

 Here is a prime example of what is NOT needed in a beta,
 or in AH in general...period.

 Nothing to add, nothing to offer....

ATI 9000 pro Same symptoms. Also the start up page has red and green blocks where I assume there are words.
I thought I was important until I got Cancer and had to go to a cancer clinic.
