Describe the bug

I was trying to play the Windows version of Rimworld (GOG) inside a wineprefix, the game worked fine but it had no fonts.
As in places where there should be text was entirely blank.

https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/tb2265/rimworld_on_linux_kinda_broken/
According to this, I needed to have the Arial font installed.

I previously used Lutris, in Lutris using winetricks to install the necessary Arial font resolved my issue.
But in Bottles, even after I installed the Arial font dependency, text in the game still did not appear.
It was only after I downloaded a copy of Arial.ttf off of the internet and placed it in C:\Windows\Fonts did the text finally appear.

This leads me to believe this is a bug/regression in Bottles, as I also clearly remember using Bottles to play Rimworld a few months ago and the Arial font dependency install working fine just like Lutris.

To Reproduce

  1. Download Rimworld (GOG)
  2. Install it inside a "Custom" wine-ge-proton-8-14 Bottle with Windows version set to Windows 7
  3. Launch game, no fonts in the menu or anywhere else.
  4. Close game, install the Arial32 font from the Dependencies tab.
  5. Launch game again, still no fonts
  6. Download Arial font from https://www.cufonfonts.com/get/font/download/5f28f88e2375c87237a2aef1b4b8851c
  7. Extract the archive, copy the Arial.ttf file to the wineprefix/Bottle's C:\Windows\Fonts directory
  8. Relaunch game, game now has fonts.

I also took a look at another Bottles C:\Windows\Fonts where I installed the Allfonts and other font dependencies, It had ttf files for alot of MS fonts like Tahoma, Lucon etc but Arial ttf was missing, I then Installed the Arial32 dependency and Arial ttf is still missing in there.

The URLs provided in the corefonts-related manifests in bottlesdevs/dependencies seem to be outdated. I submitted bottlesdevs/dependencies#200 to fix this.

I'm now facing the same issue

Likewise, although I have installed Microsoft fonts on my system (Arch), both with and without installing allfonts on the bottle (using latest flatpak version), fonts appear terrible and unreadable.
