      Hello

      How are you?

      After upgrading to Recalbox 4.1 all in game Retroarch messages are displaying as squares. It seems like the locale is wrong ,as set in a non latin character language, for the messages, however I can get into retroarch and all the texts are in Latin characters.

      Please, Could anybody lend me a hand?

      THX so much, any help is appreciated.
      Kind Regards.

      Raspberry Pi model: RPi 3b+
      Recalbox build : 7.0.1 DragonBlaze
      Hardware: MicroSD UHS 128 GB up to 80 MB, Class 10 and 2.5 A Power Supply.
      Overclocked: 1485 MHZ
      Controller(s): Wired Xbox 360 PAD (working perfectly on any other game/emulator).

          @Substring THX for your reply. I think I will wait for the next compilation in order to check if it's fixed or not. I don't want to install it from the scratch, it's a bit pain to move all the roms and savegames etc. 🙂

            @kelv Use a USB key 😛 we've been recommending that for months 😉

              As pointed by @Substring in other thread the following is fixing the issue 🙂

              •retroarch squares : there is a workaround : just remove ~/configs/retroarch/retroarchcustom.cfg Recalbox will regenerate it with the proper values. People using custom configfiles should add the value manually. Might be solved with a retroarch b*mp, no idea
