All my VDP_drawText() are gone with SGDK 1.4.1

I updated SGDK to 1.4.1 and suddenly all texts created with VDP_drawText from my program are gone. Is there anything I can do?

Before I was using the command line: VDP_doVRamDMA((u32) mytile_font8bits, 46080, 1536); to set my font in the game. I used VDP_resetScreen() without problems ... Now when I use VDP_resetScreen() I have to set VDP_doVRamDMA((u32) mytile_font8bits, 46080, 1536) again. This solved the problem.

Thanks for posting the fix. That may help someone else in the future who runs into the same thing.

I completely missed your message @DavilaGames !
Indeed VDP_resetScreen(..) does more now than before (it also clear VRAM), explaining you need to re-upload the font after calling it.
Definitely a problem, i will add the (default) font upload to the function ! Thanks for reporting
