[posila] [0.17.47] On Mac - graphics - icons missing

ALT-VIEW:
As you can see, when zoomed out a certain distance in alt-view, you can't see the icons as they fade to black. When you zoom in again, the icons fade back in.

TOOL BAR ICONS AND OTHER BUTTONS:
The icons for buttons aren't visible here, and also the "Confirm" button on the front page when you are presented with the update.

I've tried restarting and I tried on my PC (no issues); I actually first noticed the alt-view thing from 0.17.46 update.


[EDIT 2: What I've tried so far: Based on another post viewtopic.php?f=182&t=71649, I've tried the UI scaling to 125% work-around however it doesn't fix the in-game icons, only the menu buttons and general UI. Also 125% is unplayable as the toolbar overlaps with the weapons bar (see post replies).

I've also tried fiddling with graphics resolutions, no luck.


Thanks!

PS this is my first bug report ever, I love this game so much.

Actually, it started happening on 0.17.46 - I've did some back-and-forth to confirm tha 0.17.45 is unaffected, 46 and 47 has this issue.

It affects all UI widgets, even the main menu looks strange and unusable.

Yes! I just noticed and edited my post with a screen capture. Good to know it's not just my ol' Macbook acting up somehow.

[OliB150]

I'm adding a +1 into this, this is my first download of an experimental version but my research screen is mostly blank. Screenshot at bottom.

My menu buttons such look the same as Tegla's "Back", "Preview" and "Play" which to me look like they are disabled, but they do work. Not sure if that's a general UI update though.

same problem for me, hope they fix it. was going to play all night

[Borgnasse]

Same problem here.

On Macbook pro 15" retina mid 2014, integrated Intel Graphics chipset

I also saw that apart from updated ores, nothing is showing on the belts. I had a near heart-attack when I loaded my save and all the belts were empty (I was in a place where no ore was on the belts).

Reverted to 0.17.45 (lucky I had timemachine to recover my ~/Library/Application Support/factorio data folder, because after 0.17.46 had played with this folder, it was not entirely readable by 0.17.45 - in particular the local achievements)

[bluegin]

I'd just like to add that the game has never crashed for me (although I don't run any mods and my maps aren't enormous) and everything has been flawless so far up until .46 and .47.

Apparently a temporary work around is UI scaling to 125% but this doesn't solve the alt-view problems and the items on the belt not rendering in. And on my laptop, 125% looks like this:

Wanted to +1 this as well -- Macbook, 0.17.46 and 47 only, Steam, no mods currently (or ever) installed.

[vafitzm]

I have the same issues. I had a great base going on 0.17.34 but decided to download latest 0.17.47...should have read this forum first. I tried reverting back but map got updated and now is not compatible with the earlier version. I am in limbo.

[rcobbe]

Huh -- I'm not seeing these problems with 0.17.47. I upgraded straight from 17.45, and aside from the new ore icons, everything looks just like it did in 17.45, both modded and vanilla.

I'm seeing this behavior on 2 different machines: a 2017 iMac, MacOS 10.14.5, Radeon 580 (8GB VRAM); and a 2018 MacBook Pro, MacOS 10.14.5, Radeon Pro Vega 16 (4GB VRAM). At least, on the MacBook, I'm assuming that the game is running on the Radeon and not on the integrated GPU; I'm not actually sure how to verify this.

EDIT: I should have mentioned that both machines have retina displays, and I'm running the interface at 225% scale (because my eyes are crap). Switching it back to the default of 200% on the iMac and 175% on the MacBook makes no difference, though.

If there's any other information I can provide to help isolate the cause, please let me know!

[franky08_15]

I have the same issues with the latest 0.17.47 on my mac mini 2018 with the onboard graphic unit, older versions like the 0.17.45 worked fine

@y rcobbe: i don't think the problem is the resolution of the retina-displays. Both of your systems have dedicated graphic units, it seem that the problem is on systems with the intel-gpu unit

[posila]

Does anyone have this problem on other version of macOS than macOS 10.14.5?

Please post logs with your reports (located at ~/Library/Application Support/factorio/factorio-current.log)

[neon55]

I'm on a 2014 mac book pro running mac osx 10.14.3 and the latest version of factorio .17.47 I went back to .46 and nothing changed, then I went back to .45 and the issue was resolved.

This is how it looks like. with and without mods.

Please post logs with your reports (located at ~/Library/Application Support/factorio/factorio-current.log)

I'm running 10.14.4 at the moment (update pending) and have the problem.

I can't find a factorio folder in (MacHD)/Library/Application Support/ so can't provide a log

[Aneuk]

Same problem here. Running on macOS Mojave 10.14.5.

Logs attached. Are those the files you need?

Mac version: 10.14.5
MacOS Mojave

Icon visibility seems related to the zoom level, see screenshots.

Keep the good work and thank you for responding on a saturday!!!!

[TheBloke]

I can't find a factorio folder in (MacHD)/Library/Application Support/ so can't provide a log

It'll be under your own home folder, eg /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/factorio.


I thought I'd add a quick negative report: I am running macOS 10.14.5 and I do not have the problem.

But my setup is unusual and non-standard. I am running a Hackintosh (macOS on normal PC), emulating a Mac Pro 5.1. My GPU is an AMD 7970Ghz / 290X 3GB. I do not have any on-board/integrated GPU.

Attached is my log, in case it's of any help in narrowing down the problem.

[foxtrot]

Not certain it will work for everyone; but the following config change has fixed this issue for me:

Code: Select all

[graphics]
runtime-sprite-reload=true

(although, seems to have negatively affected performance — quite considerably)

[ssilk]

Besides the other issues: This pic is, what I've seen several times since the last 2-3 Month, when the Mac was shutdown (game paused or unpaused).
That points in my opinion directly to some issue with the graphic-card.



Taken from: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=71700#p435219 - see above

[MatthijsH]

This config changed worked for me as well (0.17.47 on macOS 10.14.5 / Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650). The performance with the change is horrible compared to 0.17.45 or with unchanged config. The FPS when fully zoomed out goes from 40FPS without the change to 9FPS with the config changed.

I've attached my logs, current is without changed config, previous is with changed config.
