First off - I tried my best to find a thread or info somewhere that could help me before starting a new one.

I'm using a 2017 MacBook Pro 13inch.

The game has worked fine for me the first few days of having it. This started today. I am not sure how to explain my graphics problems so I'll just post screenshots.

Any help is appreciated!

Try adding '-compat' to the launch options in ES2's properties. It fixes all manner of Mac graphical glitches although the Diplomacy screen still crashes for me. Luckily, I can still conduct diplomacy by engaging with another empire directly.

This is probably related to the Target Locked update which would explain why the glitches suddenly appeared.

Can you give us an overview of your Mac by using the system profiler and copying the information over here?

Search for "profiler" using Command-F. [Command = Apple Key]. You can save the information in a text format and upload the file, or copy its contents here.

Thanks!

This worked for me and resolved all of my UI issues. Thanks
