Can you please provide more details?

Does this happen near the start of the game when a mission
appears (or when you enter a mission)?

Or does this happen later on in the game when you must try
to shoot down UFOs?

PS: the cost to produce a weapon is currently set at 10x the
cost of buying it from market. Is this what you mean by your
weapon price comment?

I'm having the same problem.

it's happening very near the beggining (around 9h30 first
day on new game), the first mission has not appeared usually.
it seems that the night sliding shadow turns white and then,
a jiffie after the full geoscape turns white. Entering the
base, by clicking blind on the geoscape, show the same white
on the base part.

Seems similar to some video driver problems some people had.
Updating the drivers sometimes helped...

I have the same problem of blank of the geoscape. First,
only the part shine by the sun was blank, and then the whole
geoscape became blank.
Afterwards the texture in the battlefield become also blank.

Same problem to me, after some time the base and geoscape
become blank, only some things keep to appear, like the
triangle of the base position and the mission cross.

the first time it happened was just few minutes of real time
after the start of the game, when I was inspecting the base
layout i clicked on a block and after exiting from the
ufopedia it went blank, exiting to the geoscape it too was
blank.
the frame around the geoscape and the base layout somehow is
still present (and button too).

the third time it happened i was able to send the team on
the second mission, and in the mission all look and function ok.

I'm marking this as a duplicate of "[ 1550219 ] white peaces
in the interface"

It seems to be a problem when playing the game using certain
drivers (especially the r300 drivers, but we have had
reports of issues with different configurations).
