Hello every one.
I'm a new french Steam player who waited for Portal on mac for a long time.
I wanted to change the language to french for understand all of the mysterious voice said and live the game completly but…♥but when you go to "Option" and change the language, the game inform you it must be restart to complete. So the game quit and…♥doesn't restart ! I start its again and nothing change, the language is back to english :/
Is someone has answer(s) for me, please ? How i can change the language to french ?

ET si possible, y'a t il un utilisateur français ici qui puisse me répondre afin que je comprenne complétement les réponses ? merci d'avance ^^



Sorry for my bad english and thx ! :)

Hmmmm. Was there even a French vocal version to being with? I think changing the language only changes the menu and the subtitles.

Very odd.
I changed my language to russian after I messed up my english files, by trying to install skins.
(Seems it doesn't work)
Try changing it through steam it's self.

Right click on the game while in Steam Library, go to properties, language tab.

edit: Just tried changing the audio language in game myself. After quitting, Steam should try to download the audio files from the server. Is your Steam downloading anything?
