Was working, now it's not.
« on: August 19, 2007, 02:27:31 pm »
I went all the way back and found a thread pertaining to this, but it didn't help me.

I can't see anything in the menu's once i start soldat. Everythings fine before I join a server, but then i get the weapon menu and nothing is in it. I can't choose anything. If i want to leave, i just have to guess where the return to menu button is. Can anyone help me?  ???

EDIT: I had a similar problem before, but then i went and changed some things in the setup and it worked. This problem just started after i installed 1.4.2. What do you think could be causing it if it's related to that? I know my computer can run everything maxed, but should i change something?

Firstly, you don't have to keep bumping a thread. Someone will eventually see it and try to help you.

Could you post a screenshot to help describe what you mean? I think I know what you mean, but it would help clarify the problem.

Gimp (and I) sorta messed up the resolution, but it should get the point across.

Try updating your video card drivers, and if that doesn't help, completely remove Soldat, and reinstall from scratch.

Haha, I think he's talking about the obvious "spectator mode" problem people encounter when they first start playing. In the join Game tab, to the top right corner, there is a "password" box. Below that, it says Spectator [] and a box there. If that is ticked, untick it. Voila! Your problem is solved.
