I can't read the menu text...
« on: January 29, 2005, 10:38:23 pm »
I just downloaded the game and installed, and I clicked on it the start menu. It did its little loading thing at the beginning, and then, when it was finished, I think it was a menu that pops up, but here\'s by problem: All the text that\'s supposed to be there just appears as lines (they\'re slightly similiar to a barcode on store-bought items). I tried going to the Updater, but all the text there appeared as lines as well (including the text that I type). I went to the setup but, unfortunately, I couldn\'t understand what it was saying, for the same reason. I tried restarting my computer, clicking random icons in the menu, I uninstalled the program, and then installed it again, but nothing seems to work. I really want to play PlaneShift, but I don\'t even know how to create my character because of this. Can somebody help?

(By the way, I also posted this message in the Newbie board, but I think now it\'s more of a technical problem.)

The line below is lying.
The line above is telling the truth.

Search button is your friend... so they say well either way...

Link below has the solution, look for a download of glwin32.dll then put it in your planeshift folder after running it once.

I like taking things literally, going overboard is fun! Now... why do I keep getting odd looks?
