How to switch language ?

Recommended Posts

I have bought ArmA twice, in German by downloading and more recently in French in my favorite videogame shop.

My problem is if I use my German key with my 505 games DVD I will get the game in German with no possibility to change the language in video options. I checked my arma.cfg file and it shows language="French";

Is there a way to make language switching effective on 1.04 version ?

I've read that it depends on the Keys language (therefore a install using the french key should help, don't forget to clean any myDocuments folders), but I've also seen this in the 1.04 patch notes

5104 - Added: Support for languages switching

However I have no Idea how this is implemented because I use the german 1.02 retail Version.

That's what I noticed. There is a field about language in video settings. But I cannot switch to another language from the one of the key.

I installed European ArmA on my son's computer with my first key, the German one. And impossible to benefit these two keys both on French installation.

I sure hope this will be fixed. It doesn't make sense that a german key on a english version can't be set to english. I don't care who the publishers are, I bought the game and I'm not paying once more to get the game in english. If it's not fixed it will just promote piracy.

As everyone can read in the log, it is fixed. So as soon as the patch is out, everybody can play in the language he wants to play in. smile_o.gif
