wijnen Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 A while ago (I guess after an update of my OS, but I don't remember), my login screen suddenly looked like this: I tried changing the fonts (using https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/4627-give-your-ui-a-facelift-replacing-the-coh-fonts-with-your-own/#comment-38878), which changes it a little, but it doesn't help: The text in the chat is still readable, but speech bubbles are not. Does anyone know what can be the problem, and more importantly, how I fix it? Thanks. I'm running CoH on Debian GNU/Linux, through Island Rum and Wine.

EmperorSteele Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Any chance you can roll back the update to your PC? Or maybe find video drivers that support that version of your OS? Not a linux guy so I have no idea why it would suddenly stop displaying the font correctly, but, damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wijnen Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 Let me bump this topic. Maybe someone new will see it and has an idea what is happening? The problem is still the same. I also tried reinstalling the game, but that didn't make any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arc-Mage Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 This has come up before. Look through some old posts. I’m sure you will find a fix.

wijnen Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 I did look around, but couldn't find anything. Aren't you thinking of this post? I originally posted it last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tock Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 If it happens in another Windows game that uses Wine on your system, a more appropriate place to seek help might be Wine's Community Forums. Knowing what version of things you have installed may help (Wine 6, 7, 8, stable, experimental, what Debian release you're on...) The downside of community support: we can't help with what we haven't seen ourselves. While Island Rum CAN work on Linux, the HC Installer on its own within a Wine Prefix should be enough to get you going if you're willing to re-do the installation. Inactive account. For current info, see GM_Tock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zep Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Have you tried an uninstall/reinstall of COx and the launcher you use? ** Asus TUF x670E Gaming, Ryzen 7950x, AIO Corsair H150i Elite, TridentZ 192GB DDR5 6400, Sapphire 7900XTX, 48" 4K Samsung 3d & 56" 4k UHD, NVME Sabrent Rocket 2TB, MP600 Pro 8tb, MP700 2 TB.

wijnen Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) Yes, I did reinstall with Island Rum. I didn't know the HC launcher also works on Wine. I'll try that, thanks for the tip. Edit: Just tried that. It did indeed install and it does run, but unfortunately the problem remains. I'll see if I can try different wine versions.

wijnen Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share Posted May 21, 2023 It looks very similar indeed, but unfortunately the solutions listed there do not solve my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marine X Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Something else to check... fonts - Text has turned to boxes in Ubuntu 16.04 - Ask Ubuntu " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..."
