NotHereToPlayGames Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago Oh, I should also point out that the old Q6700 also had recent issues with WebGL. Or shall I say what a few here at MSFN perceived as possible WebGL. BUT... If one digs further into MapQuest (one of two web sites being tested at the time), it does *NOT* technically use WebGL. Per AI enquiries - "MapQuest.js, integrates with Leaflet.js, which primarily uses standard web technologies like Canvas and DOM rendering, rather than relying fundamentally on WebGL for its core functionality."
NotHereToPlayGames Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Update. I still cannot do a screencap yet (new computer does not get internet connectivity until *after* I get the OS rebuilt to my "liking"). I installed Supermium v126 R7 inside a Win10 VM on my new Intel Core Ultra 7 and Supermium v126 does *NOT* have the font-indent issue. This issue is DEFINITELY hardware-related and it has ALWAYS existed (all versions of Supermium except maybe the most recent) on my 17/18yr old Intel Core2 Quad Q6700. And yeah, bad habit, but I always reference my computers by their CPU and not their GPU. I kind of doubt that I will bring the Q6700 back to life just for the sake of a font-indent issue screencap on old-versus-new Supermium. A font-indent issue that was present both "direct" and "inside a VM" on the Q6700 but does *not* effect (affect?) my new hardware. 1
roytam1 Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago supermium v138 can be used here, showing a blank window. v132 can be used but I can't find a way to downgrade my profile.
Dave-H Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago You say a blank window, do you mean that there are no GUI elements visible? I must say that in all the Supermium versions I've used, I've never seen that.

I must say that in all the Supermium versions I've used, I've never seen that. yeah, a frameless transparent window and supermium doesn't ever try to draw anything on it.
NotHereToPlayGames Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago (edited) I've seen that also. BUT... only in a VM (XP x86) with only 512 GB RAM allocated, so I shouldn't have expected too much anyway. I can get by with only 512 GB RAM for a lot of XP stuff (even 3D CAD), but definitely not for "semi-modern" web browsers. In my case, the GUI *eventually* showed up. *IF* you let it just sit there for FIFTEEN MINUTES or more and don't touch the mouse or keyboard the entire FIFTEEN MINUTES.
