Texts don't show
One of our player have this problem:

As I know, so far only one person have this problem. Reinstalling the game from steam does not help. He say his drivers are updated. Any idea what could be source of problem and how to fix it?

What's the computer's GPU?
This is most likely a graphics card driver bug.

RE: Textes don't show
It looks like not only texts have problem, but 3d has issues too, alpha test doesn't work on plants (ferns, tree leafs), and trees don't cast shadows (except bark).

Is it possible to somehow add the shadows separately?

I wanted add that two more people reporting this problem (RADEON RX VEGA 56 and Radeon RX 5700 XT). Both people using drivers version 19.9.2
It may be issue with AMD cards or drivers.

RE: Textes don't show
After many testes, it's looks that Esenthel don't work with some AMD cards. Not only my game don't work on RADEON RX VEGA 56 and Radeon RX 5700 series, but also Esenthel Editor. There problems with font, some textures and shadows.

RE: Textes don't show
can confirm, after upgrading from RX570 to 5700 today, editor is not rendering text for projects and elements etc, code viewer still renders properly.

Driver version 19.10.1 and 19.9.2 tested same problem. RX570 renders normally.

RE: Textes don't show
Could anyone with an AMD card affected by this problem check if this commit fixes the issue?
https://github.com/Esenthel/EsenthelEngi...d6d3082aa1

Basically just have to replace:
static Byte VS_Code
inside Engine/Source/Graphics/Vertex Index Buffer.cpp
and rebuild the engine

I will check once I get back home from work.

Well building the engine and the Esenthel builder and running the builder shows the same as current release, text not working on 5700

RE: Texts don't show
Thank you Zervox for testing.
I'm in touch with some friendly folks at AMD so I hope we'll be able to find some solution.

That error is irrelevant (you can ignore it)
