Edit the file /usr/share/xbmc/addons/skin.confluence/720p/Font.xml and add the following code inside the block:

     
    
        
            font10
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            14
        
        
            font12
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            23
        
        
            font13
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            25
        
        
            font14
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            25
        
        
            font16
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            25
        
        
            font30
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            30
        
        
            fontContextMenu
            Roboto-Regular.ttf
            25
        


    
        
            font10_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            12
        
        
            font12_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            17
        
        
            font13_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            20
        
        
            font24_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            24
        
        
            font28_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            28
        
        
            font30_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            30
        
        
            font35_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            35
        
        
            font45caps_title
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            45
        
        
            font_MainMenu
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            
            40
        
        
            WeatherTemp
            Roboto-Bold.ttf
            80

To select the newly created fontset go to “System > Settings > Appearance > Skin > Fonts” and change it to the blank value.

If you edit the file /usr/share/xbmc/addons/skin.confluence/720p/language/English/strings.po (or the corresponding file to your current language) and add the following code at the end it should appear “Massive” and not a blank text in the fonts option but that didn’t work for me though:

msgctxt "#31911"
msgid "Massive"
msgstr ""
