Menus have disappeared?

The game (10b) was working just fine, and I'm not sure how it happened, but the game menus have disappeared.
For example, when I hit ESC the menu doesn't pop up. Or D to drop an item - no menu appears. And the list of hotkeys in the lower right of the window is gone as well.
Any suggestions?

The ..what ??!
Hum can you check your error log please (in your terminal under linux) or in a stdout.Txt file in the same directory as the game on windows

One possible explanation would be that he's currently got Channel Staff highlighted as a talent from the 'G' screen. In 10b, when you move the selection cursor to Channel Staff, the entire talents screen disappears from view, but it's still "active" and awaiting input. Very confusing, and I think the symptoms match what he's describing.

In my case I get the following error:
Code: Select all
Lua Error: /engine/interface/ActorTalents.lua:472: attempt to index local 't' (a nil value)
At [C]:-1
At /engine/interface/ActorTalents.lua:472 isTalentCoolingDown
At /engine/HotkeysDisplay.lua:76 display
At /mod/class/Game.lua:453
not sure if it is the same as his.

I have lost my m menu that is always at the bottom of the screen, but lost none of the other menus.
The error I get is:

Can you check out in your T-Engine tome directory in the settings/ folder, is there a tome.gfxmode.cfg file ? is it writable ? Does the error disappear if you remove it ?

That character died shortly after I posted, but if the error comes up, I will check and report back.

i have this same error. it randomly (i may have pressed something.. not sure) came up on my last character and now it affects every new one too. inventory, escape menu, talents, etc do not show up. the only way ive found around it is using page up and down to go to the different talent sets.
this doesnt work when i load or start a new game though...can move once then cant do anything (including opening console)

removing the tome.gfxmode.cfg didnt work either unfortunately
edit- noticed this in stdout.txt. not sure if its relevant, but id assume it is
Code: Select all
Lua Error: /engine/interface/ActorTalents.lua:472: attempt to index local 't' (a nil value)

At /engine/HotkeysDisplay.lua:132 toScreen
At /mod/class/Game.lua:475
this error is just repeated a few hundred times in there
edit2- starting a new game seems fine actually. just loading doesnt work
