BUG 1.20 - Every mission Briefing causing the game to be unplayable for me

Post by EricHunt »

Every mission is the same - if that mission requiresw a popup window or if you want to look at the mission and goto "Briefing" all I get is the main screen again - I cannot do any mission that requires the mission agent to send something to me that opens a briefing window - the mission just sits there, I cannot go to the map or anything else other than fly the ship - unless I dock, tyhen get out of my seat - that seems to clear the "I cannot do anything status" but I still cannot see a brief
I have started this game over 8 times now - thinking it me - and it might still be - can anyone advise what it is I am doing wrong or is it a bug - either that or can i have my money back please as it is not playable for me at the moment - which is a dam shame as it looks to be bloody awesome

Hopefully someone can help

I think I have this same issue. In fact, I think you just helped me realize why the HQ mission doesnt progress past the first dialog interaction and makes my game unplayable.

Are you by any chance playing in a widescreen mode or triple monitor setup? Did you change the UI scaling? I'm running in 5760x1080 with UI scaling at 0.5 so I can see menus well enough for them to be functional. I'll bet that this wide mode is causing the briefing dialogs to get borked.

EDIT: I just did a quick test by changing my resolution to 1920x1080 and lo the briefing screens magically started working!
EDIT2: I confirmed this is why HQ mission was bugged out. It works fine in 1920x1080 mode.
