Font issues of that sort, though usually not so severe, have been occurring for a long time, for no apparent reason, on a variety of character sets, with no known fix. It might be some incompatibility between freetype, gigi, and video drivers, but it's not something we can do anything about at the moment.

The crash appears to be the same issue as in this thread which has been semi-fixed in SVN, in that it shouldn't cause a crash now, but there are still references to meters that object don't have, which might lead to buggy effects in-game.

I can give a possibly helpful clue: If i just copy the game to USB flash-card and run it from there, the fonts in game looks perfectly! But when i run it from local drive - everything the same. Each copy of game uses one config file. Each runs on the same PC. But! One time the bug can migrate: from USB flash game starts with dirty fonts, but from native folder on local drive it starts to render font correctly! :D

PS This is the hint to solve the problem with such font look: copy the folder of your game to the flash! :lol:
