Characters don't display properly

[Bob8372]

When I open Wesnoth, all of the characters display as empty boxes. I am running Windows 7 64-bit and Wesnoth 1.12.1. I used to be running 1.10.5 when in the middle of a scenario, all of the characters changed to the boxes. Figuring it was a problem with having an outdated version, I updated, but the problem did not go away. (I did not reinstall any addons; this is the version of Wesnoth downloadable from the site.) I have attached the stderr file and a save demonstrating the problem. Please help.

Your save file works fine for me. A screenshot might give us more information.

Here are a couple things you can try that might help: Go to Preferences-->General-->Paths. Find out where your cache directory is located and delete it. It will be rebuilt automatically. Also go to the configuration directory and delete the preferences file (or at least move it somewhere else for now). Open the game data directory, and make sure the images actually exist and can be opened by you. (In case this is a corrupt install or a permissions problem.) Check this file for example: /data/core/images/units/human-magi/elder-mage.png. (It's the image used for Delfador.)

I attached a screenshot of the screen at Preferences->general->paths. I also deleted the cache directory and moved my preferences file. The images are fine. Maybe it is a problem with missing a font? I have Andagii, DejaVuSans, DroidSansFallbackFull, and DroidSansJapanese in the fonts folder.

I was thinking about the characters like Konrad and Delfador, but you meant letters. Sorry. Yeah, it seems like the font isn't installed. Can you install the fonts in the font folder to your system?

I installed all 4, but the problem isn't going away. Do you have any other suggestions?

I just restarted my computer and it works now. Thanks for your help!
