health bars

[BigSteve]

For some reason after the new update I don't have health bars and pressing F9 doesn't bring them on screen.
When I host a game I have them and can toggle them on and off, but if I join a game, they aren't there and no matter how mny times I bash f9 and shout at my stupid computer they won't appear.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Which is the new version? 0.75b1 or 0.75b2?

what exactly have you been shouting? this could be vital information to solving your problem.

I have similar problem, except the gamebars turn off semi-randomly. Alt-tab may have soemthing to do with it, but its not consistent (sometimes i alttab and everything is alright. incidentally, alttab SOMETIMES breaks keyboard shortcuts for me). Also all the graphics get borked randomly, whether i alt tab or not (faces are inverted randomly on units). It's not gamebreaking, but annoying.

But the health bar thing is damn near gamebreaking, IMHO. Oh and for me, unit groups (ctrl-1, 2, etc) also visibly disappear with alt-tab. But i can still select everything using that group.

I cna confirm this. In some games health bars dont display at all.

Could someone post a replay that exhibits this bug?
Also note the settings that you are using:
- advanced unit rendering
- water mode
- shadows
- anything else you can think of
