Hi there - Can you attach one of the edited mtx files and a screenshot of what you're seeing here?

Alright, so what's happening here is that each mtx file has an associated font definition file, which identifies the characters present in the font and its corresponding font texture. These specific lines of text use the font definition file tmp/main_menuJapanese_02_hint.fif located inside main_menuJapanese.narc. This font definition file does contain entries for the letters d, m, u, and y which is why they show up. But none of the other characters you used have entries, so they show up as a blank space.

What you would need to do is edit the font definition file and its corresponding font texture to include the letters you want to use. This task is (at least for now) out of scope for this project.
