Updated driver all fonts in game changed??

So due to crashing issues figured i'd check out if any new drivers were up.

Turns out the new CCC was released the 13th so yay update them.

Start elemental.. everything uses tahoma font now.. wtf.

Ya its a minor annoyance but if anyone knows how to go back to the default elemental fonts OTHER than reinstalling let me know.

You might try going to Elemental\Fonts and installing the font manually, though it's hard to say how a video driver update would cause windows to unregister it.

This is Fixed

Turns out its a mixture of new drivers and my particular system settings.

Long story short the New drivers dont like the /3gb switch so I just use the non /3gb switch option on the boot menu.

It will load the drivers but refuses to load OTF fonts when the /3gb switch is active and.. it doesnt matter if I have the /userva set to 2600 or 2100 i still get the font issue. Why is this? Don't know.. but i can speculate the driver update changed the way the video cards memory is handled.

Before anyone asks.. why would I bother with the 3Gb switch?

Simple.. BTS made civ IV large address aware and its one of the few ways to reduce OOM issues in Civ IV BTS.

isn't the new ccc sort of beta/preview? i think i'll wait for the next set.

that said, it looks like there's a set of the latest with the old ccc... but i'll play it safe.. too many driver installer choices!
