Missing menu GUI

When ever I press tab or ESC to bring up the in game menus the actual menus and texts etc are missing. I only get the crafting items shown in the GUI.

Can you try the Testing Steam beta build and report if this is the same or different?

Details are here: Testing 15: World Builder and Resource Regen!

Tried that. It is the same. I am running on a Intel NUC 6 I5 Skylake machine, Will try to run it on a different computer.

You could also try the Legacy Steam beta build.

Can you also share a gist of the game log when running with the default version? We could still like to understand and fix the issue.

Tried the Legacy version. Menus are there, but it crashes completely. Could not even move or do anything.

Where do I find the game log?

You accedently pressed . ?

Just learned about that button… but it does not help. The menus are just white and grey squares with no text etc.

The GUI is there, but all text and details and symbols are missing.

Can you share some screenshots?

Tried on different computer where it works fine. But attached is a screenshot from the inventory GUI showing the issue on the other computer, this time I could not even get the “white and grey squares” where the buttons should be. the ESC menu is invisible (pressing . does not help).

Tried some more. Now I got the white squeares back again in the menu…

Odd, it looks like there is no kerning between the words, which is then making them look like white blocks.

Log files can be found here … %LOCALAPPDATA%\Turbulenz\Boundless\boundless_log.txt

You can create a public Gist https://gist.github.com/ to share them more easily for the devs to have a look.

Also out of curiosity, are you running the most up-to-date graphics drivers on that machine?

The drivers are up to date. Below is the log fie. I will look into Gist.

I have this identical issue on my surface pro 4 i7, and reported it a few weeks back. The game is unplayable for me until this is fixed.

We’ve managed to reproduce what looks to be probably the same issue on a similar Intel HD Graphics 530 gpu so we’ll see if we can work out what’s going on there and hopefully it might fix your issues.

Great. Will continue to use a different computer until then. Let me know if you need any more input or test done from my side.
