Language problem!

Archived from groups: alt.games.operation-flashpoint (More info?)

The language is hardcoded into the executables.. You can see this when you
have players from other countries on your server, where the death-messages
etc are localized.

Apart from the stringtable.csv there is nothing (IMHO) you can do. So the
answer really is : Buy the English version.
BtW, Goty English is really cheap these days !

Would installing a mod such as FDF make any difference?

FDF is uncompressed replacements of all kind of phrases and words.. Every
instance of a soldier has it's own "one two three".
I guess the 'normal' games has this compressed, and maybe into some files,
but I don't know which ones they are..

Still: Why should there be an English, a French and a Polish version if it
only depended on language files? Nah, I don't think you have a chance in
'converting' a foreign game into English.

I'm getting someone to buy me a czech version of OFP, it's cheap enough
to be worth it (I currently have the european version).

If you could send me a list of the md5sums of all files i could tell you
which differ from the europaen version and could maybe even make a
download available to you.
