🔲 Disappeared Text:

This issue is a known Unity Engine rendering bug that began appearing after MDRG was updated from an older Unity version to Unity 6, starting in version 0.90.1.

Unity 6 introduced new rendering requirements for TextMeshPro (TMP), the system responsible for drawing all in-game text.
These new requirements rely on GPU features that some older or low-end graphics cards, particularly Intel HD Graphics and legacy Windows 10 systems, do not fully support.

Because of this incompatibility, Unity 6 often fails to load or render the TMP font atlas.
When that happens:

  • All Latin-based text disappears (English, Spanish, French, etc.)
  • Only languages with OS fallback glyphs appear (Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Greek)
  • UI boxes appear empty, even though the game still runs
  • Reinstalling or extracting the game correctly does not fix the issue

This is not caused by missing fonts, corrupted downloads, or game files.
It is directly tied to changes introduced by the Unity 6 engine update.

Why earlier versions (0.87 and older 0.90 builds) worked:

Older versions of MDRG used an earlier Unity build that:

  • Had weaker GPU requirements
  • Used older TMP rendering methods
  • Worked reliably with low-end graphics hardware

Once the game moved to Unity 6, any hardware unable to meet the new shader/model requirements began experiencing invisible text.

Workarounds (based on all confirmed reports):

  1. Play the browser/WebGL version: Works for everyone because WebGL uses a different renderer.
  2. Use Linux (native or via virtual machine): Linux Unity builds use Vulkan/OpenGL, which do not trigger this bug.
  3. Try updating Windows + GPU drivers: Helps a small number of users, but not a guaranteed solution.

Unfortunately, this is not something the developer can fix on their own.
It is a Unity 6 engine-level rendering issue affecting certain hardware configurations.

The text becomes invisible because MDRG switched to Unity 6 in version 0.90.1.
Unity 6 changed how fonts are rendered, and older GPUs on Windows 10 can’t handle the new system.
That’s why only some languages appear, and others become blank.

This is a Unity engine issue, not a game bug. To fix it, try using the browser version, Linux, or try updating your GPU drivers.
