Change the games language?

Slobcannon · 11-30-2009, 03:34 PM

Hi guys,
I just bought the game and its great. The only thing that bugs me is, that it defaults to my system language. I'd like to play it in english. Is there a way to manually change the language via a config file or any other way?

Best regards

Unfortunately, no. The game uses your Windows settings.

I exchanged the language file of my current language (for me German) with the language I want to play in (for me English) - Reason: Bad translation (e.g "Sprachschwatzchen" for "Voice Chat" - Oh My God!)

1. Go to <Your Steam dir>\steamapps\common\startrekdac\CrosswordGame\Co nfig\PC

2. Make a backup of the file "...Localization.ini" of your CURRENT language (that you want to get rid off). For me it was GermanLocalization.ini.

3. Make a backup of the file "...Localization.ini" of your DESIRED language (that you want to play in). For me it was EnglishLocalization.ini. Put the backup to the same folder as the original.

4. Copy the name of the CURRENT language file to the clipboard. For me it was "GermanLocalization.ini".

5. Delete the CURRENT language file. For me it was GermanLocalization.ini.

6. Rename the BACKUP of the DESIRED language to the file name in your clipboard. For me, I renamed to "Copy of EnglishLocalization.ini" to "GermanLocalization.ini".

Done.
