Downloaded and installed through Steam. The game plays brilliantly - Dire Straits, Sultans of Swing - great 'track'.
However the interface is virtually unreadable - text looks as if its been wiped with a wet cloth.
Changing the screen resolution seems to be the only readable option but this has no effect on the interface.
Anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution to produce 'readable text':)

I dont remember having that problem when I tried it. Is it anti-aliasing maybe?

Ran again today. Altered 'graphic settings' through 'options'. Tried all combinations of screen resolutions, refresh rate, can't read options for anti-aliasing - just guessing etc but no joy. Can read tutorial now and parts of 'craft' selection - the 'fly out bits', but everything else a blur!! Just like life I suppose :-D Track itself runs fine, so I suppose no problem...but seeeing as game tells me I've achieved 'high' scores and to post them online, I can't read the login request!

What about at driver level? Maybe drivers are forcing anti-aliasing?

Just had a look around (as I'm sure you've done) and couldnt find anything helpful, a post on a forum mentioning something similar but thats about it. Are you using a windows theme that has a different default font to windows or do you have the font size larger than standard? Although I saw something saying it didnt rely on system fonts for text. I'm out of ideas anyway. :)

Thanks again Garin, but I've looked as you have and really drawn a blank. Windows theme, font etc is as normal - nothing weird or unusual. Screen resolution at 1440 x 900 (wide screen) - this isn't a problem, running Audiosurf windowed or full screen the 'blurring' still occurs. No problems - the game's good, so thanks again:-)
