I didn't fix anything. I just determined and noted that there wasn't any real problem.
The 'v' command works better now. As you observed, it kept reverting back to some kind of an 'abstract' or 'alfaerie' font, instead of the user-selectable font. I'm glad you fixed it. It was getting frustrating having the thing revert back to that weird font, over and over again.
It appears that your opponent, who is the one who started this game, prefers David Howe's Alternate set. This is not the same as the Abstract set. When I changed the set to Motif and clicked View, the position remained the same. It did not revert to the starting position, though the dropdown box with the moves now said 'Starting Position'. This is because each time you click View, it moves forward in the list to the next move, and there is no next move to view after the last move.
I just dropped by to see if my opponent had made a move, and when I clicked the newest implementation of Ultima (that's Baroque to the rest of the world), I was greeted with some kind of 'abstract' representations of the chess pieces. No matter what I clicked, I couldn't get the original 'staunton' style of chess pieces back. I tried selecting the 'chess motif' that was supposed to be available, but then after I clicked 'view' I got stuck at move 0. But the fact is, we are around 6 moves into the game. It appears that the most recent innovation (or innovator) in the Game Courier must like the 'abstract' representations of the pieces. But I don't. I prefer instead the Staunton design, as that is what is most historically accurate. Help!
