Explanation of the issue:

I have the USA version of 3D Super Hang-On installed on my european New 3DS and, due to this region mismatch, game patching is needed in order to load and save replay data. When game patching is disabled in Luma 8.0, I am still able to play the game but the aforementioned features are not available. However, with game patching enabled the game will freeze on a white screen after the 'Presented by SEGA' and 'M2' logos have appeared, forcing me to close the game by pressing HOME + X.

The locale.txt file is located in luma/titles/00040000000c0d00, with the content USA EN. This setting enabled game patching to work successfully in Luma 7.0 for this game, and I _think_ it was still working in 7.1, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

Seriously, learn to read the docs before posting issues.

Try changing the content of locale.txt by USA EN FR 01

[Epicbeardman]

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, the issue still persists.

Wow @urherenow, don't you think I did that already? If you can't contribute anything that's actually helpful, then please stay quiet.

[urherenow]

Nope. Github isn't a support forum. If you can't figure out the docs, ask in a forum. But forget the FR. Try EN twice. Otherwise, reading the other MULTIPLE issues already posted for the same thing should tell you that it's a bug and the devs are aware of it.

[urherenow]

And considering your original post has the WRONG contents for 8.0. No. You didn't tread the docs.

[urherenow]

Try USA EN US 01

And look here for ideas if it doesn't work: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases

I'm not sure how my post has the wrong contents when all I did was fill in the placeholder info, but ok.

I've tried USA EN US 01 as per your suggestion, and also USA EN NA 01, but neither worked. I'm sure this is a regression in 8.0 as opposed to the additional country code or state ID being wrong, because both Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives 1 and 3 work with a locale.txt that has contents JPN JP.

It should have been fixed, I'll reopen if not.

I can confirm that the issue is now fixed. Thanks!
