(Hope you can see the image.)
My friend has suddenly experienced an issue with the background text along with the in-game text descriptions being blurred. We were playing AI War last night just fine with the latest ZR version.

It sounds like it might be a driver issue or something along those lines. A reboot might fix it, honestly. It's something odd in directx or the drivers causing it to go into a lower-res texture mode compared to what the game normally asks for. Only one other person reported this ever, and it was some sort of driver thig if I recall (it's somewhere in this subforum). Yet another transient issue I will be happy to be leaving behind with unity. Hope that helps!

Make sure to power cycle the monitor also, that looks to me like either the resolution or some other monitor adjustment has gone screwy. (sharpness/saturation/etc.)
If the power cycle on the monitor doesn't do it, the LCD should have an "Auto Adjust" somewhere in it's menu that's accessed by the buttons on the monitor itself.

I would advise him to do that, though his menu text and such appears to be fine.
Thanks for the advise!

Actually, never mind.
The distortion I am talking about would not show up in a screen shot, it's specific to the monitor that it is happening on.
If it's showing up in a screenshot like that, it's something else.

He's still experiencing the problem even after a graphics update... this is odd.
