I am having the same problem with the picture, my tools and edges show
up but the dungeon heart or areas dug out show nothing. i have tried
playing with the display settings to no avail, and ran the same update
package. does anyone know of a fix for this? CaliannG;753524 Wrote:

the same problem, and turning off "hardware acceleration" in the game
