HarveyBernstein, Thank you for reporting the problem with the HUDs. You mentioned your saved game reproduces the issues and closing and reopening does not fix it. Can you please upload your saved game to a file upload site and post a link here, so we can investigate the problem? Thank you.

Tourresh, Please post a copy of your most recent debug.err file. We will need to use it to compare and attempt to reproduce the problem here.

Are you able to get to the title screen and options screen? If so, please try turning off the "Advanced Lighting" feature. It is under the Video tab of the Options screen.

Joshm350z, Please provide your debug.err file. It sounds like a video graphics driver issue, so if you haven't already, please make sure you have the latest drivers for your video card. Thanks.

If you go to the options screen, and turn off the "Advanced Lighting" option, then try again, does it work then? Also, if you could please provide your debug.err file (in /documents/my games/elemental), that would help us determine what might be going wrong. Thanks.
