Unable to see text Age of Empire III

I've recently decided to go back to the Age of Empire III. So I found the Age of Empire III trial version, and opened the software. The issue is that I can't see any text with the exception of those text that are implanted in the images and the animations. I have already tried the suggested option below.


Contents->Resources->GameData FR->FONTS->Open the file Fonts2.xml

You have the folder open (usually Applications) and you see the AOE 3 icon.

Right click icon and select 'show package contents'

Another finder window will open, with a folder in it, called contents. Double click this.

Now double click the 'resources' folder

Then double click the 'Gamedata' folder

Double click the 'FONTS' folder

right click on fonts2.xml

Open with. Then select, 'Other'

Scroll down the programs till you see 'Textedit' and click on it.

Now click Open

Edit the file as directed

Do as follows:


Change the first line of this file as follows:

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>

and save it.

or this

Instead I tried playing around with the FONTS folder in the Resources folder. I ended up deleting it, that worked a treat.


However it appears as none of the suggested methods have worked. These are the info about my computer, and any suggestion to fix this issue would be great.

My Macbook Pro OSX Version "10.9.4"

Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5

Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3


Thanks
