Feature Request: Use of non-english CDs

[cgloeckner]

Hi, is there a way to implement to use of non-english game discs (e.g. German)?
I've only got the German version (RA2 + Addon) at hand.

Cheers

That's unlikely, for the same reason that base OpenRA also doesn't read other language discs. Ability to use them is likely gonna be added along with translation support. Also this mod doesn't even support original YR English disc right now as i don't know how to set it up myself.

But you should still be able to use the files there manually, assuming you are on Windows, or have a Windows device to install the game. You'll need ra2(md).mix, language.mix, langmd.mix at least, and theme(md).mix for music. Put these files in, again for Windows, My Documents/OpenRA/Content/ra2 or %AppData%/OpenRA/Content/ra2, which one is correct would depend on how long you've had OpenRA on that device. Only one of those should exist, so shouldn't be a problem to find it.

Unless WW decided to name stuff differently between different languages, it should still work but you would get German names in Cameos and German voicelines, other text would still be in English.
