Online Text Missing After BMS Re-Install
-
Since a recent uninstall/reinstall of BMS I’m having a problem while in an online campaign where the online players list will not display, and the ‘Esc E’ blue box has no text in it. If I try to send a text chat, the text box shows as a very thin line, but I see no incoming or outgoing text display on screen. Others have reported that they see my text message if I type it in blind while the very thin line is displayed, but I don’t see anything. All other AI comm boxes and AWACs/Tower text appear on screen normally. Oddly, this problem only exists while in an online campaign.
I’m currently on Windows 8, but everything had been working fine for a couple months since my initial installation on this new build. There have been no recent changes to the operating system, video drivers or hardware. My assumption is that I missed something on the uninstall/reinstall process (uninstall through the ‘setup.exe’ - removed ‘Benchmark Sims’ and ‘F4Patch’ reg keys). Or maybe I missed something when copying previous config files to the new install (I only copied the pilotname files, .key file, and phonebook). I’m hopeful someone has experienced this and has an easy fix that I’m overlooking.
