i tried change all the font to Arial already, still the same, Time news roman also same issue.... i tried steam version also same. Any alternative solution?
I agree with Mak, if you downloaded the steam version and this is still happening, then I have no idea what you can do other than reaching out to steam or valve to resolve this issue. I thought it was your video card drivers, did you try rolling back to the original driver that came with the CD for the video card?
Ummm ..... ?I have same problem but im using XP and its worked before then suddnely one day words dont appear i tried reinstalling ... still dont work ? It works on my other computer ?
The most common cause of not having text in chat, menus, or settings is because of the lack of the required fonts. Make sure you have the following fonts properly installed: Verdana, Tahoma, and Arial.
So make sure these fonts are installed (control panel/fonts/and search the folder for all three) If any of them are not there then download and install the missing font(s).
edit:wow, just realized the date on this thread...
