hi there. Whenever i enter a mission ,after about 10 sec. the game crashes , throws me back to desktop and displays a message saying that it "could not generate font texture". I know im not the only one experiencing the problem so i'd be pleased to hear any possible solutions. this happens on farm08d map.  on RC5 < XP os> . tried different resolutions <down to 800/600>. any help appreciated

Unfortunately this bug slipped through into RC5 even though it was fixed prior to RC5 release in the development ("trunk") branch. The fix was supposedly merged into RC5 but it wasn't done correctly. I merged it to stable branch and this issue will be fixed for RC6 (which I am working on getting ready for release soon... I promise :P).

The only work-around I know of in RC5 is to play the game at 1024x768 resolution or higher.
