Just reinstalled x-wing alliance and I saw that there is no text present at all in the game's menus. The concourse texts is nonexistent and the pause menus have no text at all, making it difficult to try closing the game. Is this a common problem and how to fix this?

I also installed the darksaber pack but it did not fix the problem.

First we need some details

What version of X-Wing: Alliance are you installing from?

Steam
GOG
Disc

What Language?

Have you changed the installation path when installing XWA from the default path?

Look in the XWA DIR, are these files present?

Fronttxt.txt
Resdata.txt
Shiplist.txt
Specdesc.txt
Strings.txt

If so are they Read Only?

If your using a different Language other than English are these files present?

Xwa.tab
Launcher.tab

If not don't worry about it (only present in Foreign Language Installations)

Have you tried reinstalling XWA numerous times?

Instead of installing any craft packs, get the vanilla XWA working first

Try disabling your User Account Control settings (UAC) google it
Then try reinstalling XWA

Last but not least What is your Operating System, Video Card and how much Ram?

Please try and answer all of these questions, thanks
