Panic Alert: Error on loading games - nitro001 - 02-04-2017

Hello,
I am running Dolphin 5.0.2243, upgraded to see if the Sideways wiimote stuff made it in, but thats beside the point.
When I open a Game, in the bottom of the screen, I see a message bubble stating:
Panic Alert: Error: Trying to access Windows-1252 fonts but they are not loaded. Games may not show fonts correctly, or crash.

Screenshot

I am running this on a Shield TV 2015 Model with the new 5.0.2 firmware.  I wasn't able to load any games in Vulkan mode as it crashed, but OpenGL worked.

Not sure if this message is related to other things happening, but thought I would point it out.

Sorry, it's a bit of an oversight in how files get copied to the dolphin-emu folder. For now, I think you can get around the problem by deleting the Dolphin app's data once. (The dolphin-emu folder probably doesn't need to be deleted, but I'm not sure.) That will make Dolphin copy the new files to the dolphin-emu folder. Alternatively, you can go into dolphin-emu/GC/ and rename font_ansi.bin to font_western.bin and font_sjis.bin to font_japanese.bin (or copy them, in case you need to use older versions of Dolphin later).
