Toram JP Font Fix

Playing Toram Online on a Mac through Highball, and every Japanese name shows up blank? This puts them back.

Why the names go blank

Toram is built on Unity, and Unity does not ask the system for fonts. It scans the game's Windows Fonts folder itself and looks for a short list of font names, starting with Arial Unicode MS and MS Gothic.

A fresh Highball bottle only has Latin fonts in that folder, so Japanese text has nothing to draw with. Changing Wine's font settings does not help, because Unity never asks Wine.

What the fix does

It copies two fonts into the bottle's Fonts folder. Both are the Japanese face of Adobe's open-source Source Han Sans, renamed internally to the two names Unity looks for first.

Quit Toram completely and open it again. Unity only scans fonts at startup.
