Character image appears under text instead of under the VN chat box:
With other NPCs, this causes some of the text to blend into their outfit (white on white):

This seems to happen on certain ATI Radeon GPUs (tested on Radeon RX 480 and Radeon HD 8400)

NV GPUs do not seem to be affected (Geforce GT730)

System configuration:
Windows NT 10.0.14393.693 (Windows 10 Anniversary Update+patch) AMD64
ATI Catalyst Control Center (Crimson 16.12.2 / Driver 21.19.407.0 - 3 Jan 17 - latest)

Thanks.

    To resolve this, I think you change your Color Depth to a lower setting.

    Didn't work. Windows doesn't support HiColor mode anyway (not since Windows 8.x)
    I can't even select 16-bit mode because of this/Selecting 16-bit colour does not do anything (because Windows won't allow it)

    Hi. I remember there being a thread or two discussing this issue with ATI graphic cards on the old forum, which unfortunately was just wiped out so I wouldn't be able to find the thread to link here. :( There was never a solution found from what I remember. I THINK someone mentioned that they could play the game in full screen mode only for preventing the npc portraits and text to overlap like that though.

    It's ALL AMD GPUs, I believe.
    You have to do it from in -game options, which is stupid because it makes the game look ugly.

    I wish they would just get this fixed and not ignore it for the many many years they have so far.
