Battlefuck: Arrow Characters Display as Squares

[NoNameWasTaken]

I'm trying Battlefuck on my current playthrough, and I have all the requirements set up properly (everything is green on the system mcm). I'm trying to use the arrow keys for the QTEs, but they only display as boxes, and I have to guess which arrow it wants me to press.

 

I understand that this is a font issue, since I've seen on the mod page that the japanese fonts displays the arrows just fine. The problem is, I don't know Japanese, so when I tried to install the Japanese font library, it turned everything into squares. Is there a way to get the arrows displaying properly using English?

 

Also, I'm using gamepad++, and if I try the demo QTE on the controller settings, pressing "B" will open the item/spell menu and count as a misinput. Would this happen in an actual QTE? I was planning on using auto-input switch to just use the arrow keys for Battlefuck if this was the case
