hcast and Vhcast

Whenever my spellcasters cast a spell, the screen says that he/she "hcasts" and "Vhcasts" instead of just "casts". Does anyone know what the problem is? Am I missing a font or something?

Thanks.

I think I had this same problem, but it has been so long, I can't remember if it was ever fixed. Which basically means this post doesn't help much. But at least you know it is not just you.

P.S. Thanks for that whole Supremacy thing.

umm.. I liked Identity too!.. Great one...

I have the same prob... With any luck there will be a fix in the next patch.. which I assume is going to take a while because of the setbacks...

All right, looks like I'll have to go into the psycho/hydro/micro-dynamics of spell-casting: basically, you got horizontally active spells (thus, hcast) & Vertically-integrated horizonal-dispersed spells (thus, Vhcast).

That's it in a nutshell.

No jokes re: nuts hell :o
