Anyone else having blank menus?

I'm running on Linux on a nVidia Optimus laptop. The menus are blank using either the Intel card or the nVidia card.

Hi, reportedly launching the game with the LC_ALL=C %command% parameter takes care of a variety graphical issues on Linux systems like elements not being drawn or flickering. Could you please check if that solves the issue?

Edit: Interestingly the list of threads still displays 0 replies for this thread. Sigh. I hope you still got a notification for my reply.

Along with F4LLOUT's solution, can you tell us what drivers are you using for the Nvidia card? Are you using the open source ones or the proprietary ones and if you are using the proprietary ones, can you tell us their version number?

LC_ALL=L solved it when running with the nvidia proprietary driver. Menus still don't show intel card.

nvidia driver 355.11
Upgraded nVidia driver to 358.16 and LC_ALL=C is no longer necessary.
I'm seeing this on Radeon radeonsi OSS driver. Tried both stock Ubuntu 15.10 (Mesa 11.0.2, OpenGL 3.3) as well as latest oibaf PPA (Mesa 11.2~git1601090730, OpenGL 4.1), with & without LC_ALL=C thing. Regardless of anything I tried, menus & mining mini-game text is invisible. Everything else seems fine, I could do the tutorial level without issue.

I suspect this ain't really a driver issue, but something that proprietary drivers work-around or have 'exception' setting for. Has anyone tried the game on Catalyst (or how is it called these days)?

Anyone have the clue on how to contact the game devs?
This is getting interesting... Just saw here @ steam community forum. I use 1920x1080 monitor, the issue was there, in native full-screen, as well as any windowed resolution I tried.

After reading the above post, I forced full-screen 1600x900 (.config/unity3d/CreativeForge\ Games\ S.A./Hard\ West/prefs), and voila! Menus are back! LC_ALL=C ain't necessary, but full-screen is a must!

It turn out that vertical resolution setting >= 1000 will cause the issue, as well as any resolution in windowed mode. Setting this weird 1920x972 full-screen resolution in prefs also worked. WTF?

<unity_prefs version_major="1" version_minor="1">
<pref name="Screenmanager Is Fullscreen mode" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Height" type="int">972</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Width" type="int">1920</pref>
<pref name="UnitySelectMonitor" type="int">-1</pref>
</unity_prefs>

Got the same problem, and the same fix worked, with r600g driver (radeon hd6850) on Debian Sid

Vexingly I'm also getting blank menus, rather frustrating.

I'll try the solutions listed in this thread.

Edit:

Unfortunately LC_ALL=C & LC_ALL=L did not fix it for me.

Upgrading my drives does appear to have done the trick though.

Thank you for posting solutions.

Sorry if I bother you, but it seems to me that you are one of the developers of the game, and maybe you can answer a small question I made in this thread, thanks!
