When in TFL, make your monitor do an auto adjust, it might help. If it doesn't then answer the following questions. What are your computer specs? What resolution is your desktop using?

If OpenGL is an option for rendering, it means Myth can handle it. I'd highly recommend pursuing a fix to get it working using OGL. The graphical improvements are very noticeable.

I think this is a bug actually. No one has looked at the TFL code in forever though, so I do not think it has been (or will be) addressed.

Not sure what you mean 'is a bug' but I know for certain I can render in OGL in Myth TFL 1.5, and it looks stellar (compared to my memories of it back in the day).

He probably means having a black screen while on OpenGL for some setups is the bug.

Exactly. Some windows users can't seem to use OpenGL in TFL.

The issue encountered by some users is not a bug per say, only NVidia based graphics cards can use the hardware rendering setting. Everyone else makes do with software rendering, after all, this software rendering option does allow you to toggle in game low resolution mode for those running on low spec machines.
