This is actually a bug I was able to fix by uninstalling and re-installing the game. But, I thought I'd make a post anyway, just in case the bug happens again, and anyone has a quicker suggestion on fixing it.
I had a bug where the heads up display, the text box, was not appearing correctly anymore (see screenshot attached). And so I couldn't switch between the different information options (battle, conversation, etc.).
Note that I have WizFast and Cosmic Forge installed. I didn't use Cosmic Forge for much, only editing one item, which I then undid. And the bug didn't show up until after I'd already used both WizFast and Cosmic Forge for a long time without issue. I don't know what triggered the bug, I can't recall doing anything specific. The bug was affecting all my saved games, as well as new games.
Even though I was able to get rid of the bug, if anyone has any ideas on what triggered it or a simpler way to fix it other than re-installing Wizardry 8, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
