Can you add a saved game file? As I know the PC Terminal there worked before.. There's actually another post with a text wrapping bug with the journals.. So I'm wondering if it's related.

[attachment=259]i'll add all saves i have in a zip file-done
P.S. yes-i have journal error too!
EDIT: i've added a screen, so you could get better hang of what's the issue, and it's frustrating as it makes impossible completion of a game for which i've payed-i hope it's fixable issue

Can you also post a screenshot showing the behavior??
RE: broken text when accessing PC terminals in Penumbra Black Plague - Marcin - 05-14-2010
umm...i just did....
it happens on all terminals i could use
all content that should display on terminal screen is snipped in same fashion-simply clicking in place where options should logically be-NO effect...
in case you missed it:

as you can see this screen is taken from card reprogramming terminal-and without it game progression is impossible

OK.. don't see it here.. going to switch to the ATI card shortly to test there.. But can you try a different resolution and see if it still does it?
I seem to recall some weird issues on ATI cards that showed up at some resolutions like that..
RE: broken text when accessing PC terminals in Penumbra Black Plague - Thomas - 05-14-2010
When trying new resolution, try a 4:3 one, such as 800x600

quick test done-it works only in smallest resolution[640 one]
i'd be delighted if some solution was made one day to play in al resolutions, as playing in 640 one is really uncomfortable....

You are running the latest patch for BP (Or Collection if that's what you have)?
