My IRC client won't show Chinese Characters. Only little lego block
images are shown. Here's the setup:

Currently have Hexchat installed with a theme installed which is just
colors. Fonts currently listed in my settings are: "ArialUnicodeMS,Seg
oeUIEmoji,LucidaSansUnicode,Meiryo,Symbola,Unifont,Quivira,MingLiU,Min
gLiU_HKSCS"

I also have the Chinese language pack installed on my PC. For the life
of me I cannot figure out why Hexchat won't display Chinese
characters. Any thoughts?

It is a bug in the 2.14 release on Windows. In the short term you
could try downgrading I suppose.
