Special characters aren't correct on sampctl

[ghost]

When I start sampctl package run from Windows CMD or Visual Studio Code, special characters aren't correct on sampctl. But when I start samp-server.exe special characters are fine. It's not related to cmd chcp or UTF-8 because it's same when I use Windows-1254, it's related to sampctl I think. also those characters are Turkish special characters.

vscode terminal, sampctl package run

sampctl from cmd, sampctl package run

samp-server.exe

the code:

In future can you post the actual code you are trying to make work? I can't reproduce these characters cause I have no idea where to get them from.

Please do not post images of code.

This is odd because afaik the output is simply copied from the server process stdout to the sampctl stdout.

It's possible this not related to sampctl at all, and is related to the terminal/shell he is running it in. It could be forcing an encoding that is messing the output of sampctl.

The reason it is not shown in the "samp-server.exe" is because this is using the default windows command with default settings to output, which is normal for any console application.

I'm having the same problem. I'm Brazilian, and when: Português -> Portugu�s

I tried on Windows 10 Terminal (the app from Microsoft Store), built-in powershell, cmd, and i tried on windows 7 powershell and cmd. It's same, also the characters şğüçölöıİ you can try to print them. I think it's about unicode because as rique said it's not only in Turkish.

This works fine for me?

main()
{
    printf("Las Venturas Crew Wars - 2021 (şğüçölöıİ)");
}

Could be related to "System locale" in Windows itself. Basically its like fallback encoding (thats probably wrong explanation but i have no idea how to describe it)

Try changing it to yours (Change system locale button in picture)

That is from Windows 7, and you can find it in Control panel, Region and Language
