Can't see Texts on Linux
Hi all,

I made this screenshot: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=134768666
So I can't understand the game. Any help?

Regards

Linux - no text shows up in the settings menu
To fix this issue you need to install the arial.ttf and arialb.ttf fonts to your installation, this can be found in the ms-corefonts.ttf or eufonts packages.

However, I am on Windows, not Linux.

Downloading arial.ttf and arialb.ttf and putting them into c:\windows\fonts should do the trick.

Reboot your system and launch KSP again. Fonts should be showing. Try it and tell us if it worked.

Could be hard to do when there is no C: on a Linux-System.

He was talking about windows. Didn't the path c:\windows\ tip you off?

Damn. I dunno man, try running KSP as administrator? At this point it looks like it's serious enough to try and go to the official forums. They know the game better than us, and will be able to probably tell you what's wrong with your game just by reading your configuration file. It'll probably be faster and more effective. Sorry our suggestions haven't worked so far :/
