Menu Text Obscured By Tileset?
« on: December 27, 2019, 09:41:32 pm »

So I've installed a new tileset I like (_Meph_32x32; nice work Meph) and I like the way it looks but for some reason when I boot up the menu is printed not in text, but in the tiles used for in-game graphics. I switched to this set a while ago, and I remember somehow getting it to work, but I recently deleted all my region files to start a new game and now the menu is just unreadable.

I feel like I've futzed with every setting in init.txt, and nothing changes (for the better, at least). Can anyone help?

Is TWBT turned on?
That allows setting separate tilesets for text and graphics. Needed for most graphical tilesets, otherwise your text is replaced by graphics (presumably as you're seeing right now).

Yes, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I tried all the other display modes and they did some weird stuff but nothing cleared it up.

Best post in Meph's thread. He'll notice new posts there quicker than here. I believe he has his own launcher which would set everything up for you automatically if you can't figure it out.
