How to play CZ/GER version completely in English
sickboy replied to sickboy's topic in ARMA - GENERAL
Ok I will write it in full for you once more:[*]All Voices are in English. Some reporter is in Czech or in case of the German version; in German, but there are English subtitles. [*]All Texts are in English after the conversion, if they are not, then either something went wrong, or you did something wrong Please check the FAQ before posting any questions. -
The game wasn't allowed to be released before 30.11.2006 You got the game a day earlier, it is very likely that the cdkeys at the master-servers aren't (all) certified yet... I would check it again today, and piss in the toilet instead

How to play CZ/GER version completely in English
sickboy replied to sickboy's topic in ARMA - GENERAL
Thanks for the mirror guys! Greatly appreciated as usual!!Added the asked questions to a FAQ section in the first post aswell: All Voices are in English, in all versions of ArmA, except some reporter voices .. which have subtitles anyway, which gives it a nice foreign country feeling anyway Which texts do you still see in Czech? (Menu? Ingame commands? Single or Multiplayer briefings?) If you see the Campaign in Czech... Throw away campaigns\ca.bak and retry, or try starting new campaign. Were your files original before you patched or were they already edited? (If (possibly) edited... put back original files and repatch) Were there errors while patching or did everything say succes? (If you repatch now without first putting back your original files, you will receive errors for every single file, so checking for errors now sadly won't help you! Could you put back your original files from dvd and try again? (You can start with bin.pbo and language.pbo, then patch those, they are about the Menu and ingame commands, editor etc. etc.) You don't have to manually patch, you can just use the patch-CZ.bat in the @6thSense\Tools folder, if you unpacked the archive directly into your ArmA folder. I fail to see the logic in asking such question as the version history displays exactly what every version adds -
Thanks m8! 6thSense.eu has the mission in the mission list, you (as any other coop lover) is welcome! Check the Introduction thread for info on how to play at our servers! Will give a report about the mission when we played it a couple of times! Keep it up!

When you uninstall the game, these files probably remain in your ArmA folder. As there is no user data in the ArmA folder, it is safe to assume that you can just remove the ArmA folder with Windows Explorer from your harddisk. All settings and other configuration data is in your Windows Profile & Documents. About the German Hotfix; My best guess is that this hotfix only updates certain dll's and/or probably the .exe file. As my patches have nothing to do with dll's nor .exe's, I think it is safe to assume that there will be no problem or incompatibility whatsoever. If there is, I will answer in kind ASAP. -

Put German in the place of Czech and Czech in the place of German Another possiblity might just be to install the czech version again but now with the serial number you got from the german version... This could confirm or not confirm if the CD-Key is the choice-maker for Language -

<span style='color:blue'>I am pleased to announce the release of the v0.4 patcher program...</span> This is version v0.4 which is converting the complete ArmA Czech or German version to English, INCLUDING the Multiplayer Missions and Editor Templates, INCLUDING the SP Missions/Campaign briefings/overview!!!! This version has 2 different bat files for each task, a CZ one and a GER one, please pick the correct one ) Please report bugs if you find them! Have fun! I am thinking about cleaning up the bat files and structure considerably in v0.5, altough it ain't bad at all if you ask me But it can always get nicer (when there is time ) Also thinking about adding an uninstall.bat with it next time that will grab the original files back from dvd -

You are trying it on Czech version and not German by accident? You are sure the game is closed? Did you try rebooting? You are sure you are running the patch.bat .. ONLY if you have unpacked the archive directly into your arma folder? Or did you unpack it somewhere else and your ArmA is not installed in C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA? (In this case, unpack it again but now directly into your ArmA installation folder, then run the patch.bat from the @6thSense\Tools  folder) -
There are already many of such help threads. If you are running under Vista; run it under XP, drivers for Vista aint optimized yet. If you are running under XP; upgrade all your drivers, and make sure they are the latest and recognised as stable, rather not beta. Try higher settings or medium settings.. I've heard somewhere that very low and low sometimes made low fps... Try switching the advanced settings around at a place where you have that low FPS... and see what happens Try 1024x768 ... anything higher gives a lot lower fps, even 1 resolution higher gave heavy impact on fps

Nope, im from das unterland lol, Netherlands

When I put it on 1024... it isn't long for my game using over 640mb mem But that's in multiplayer and probably some different missions than you had... So it's a matter of: Which Mission Where in the Mission Graphics settings in general I think... if they are very low, it will save memory anyway..

That's for another topic. This topic is for ppl that DO want the game right now m8

Then you follow my readme in how to put back the backuped files or the files that are on your dvd, both described in my readme. Besides, I don't know how legal it will be to copy the real BIS released English files from your friends copy to your copy when the English one get's released, but who's stopping you anyway? (Not that I advertise pir*ting!!!! BTW, afaik... it doesn´t check all the files in your installation folder, but only the files that the patch applies to.

True, I will have to release a new patch, depending on what BIS patches, but this can be done fast and without too much delay. Besides, my work is now on the streets... at this moment I don´t want anyone else to fiddle or re-release it, but if I would not be able to create a patch in a normal time space, it´s going to be easy to change the license of my patch and let the work be continued by others that are in the same boat. Besides, we are working on methods on how to convert the game to English without having to patch the bin.pbo and the language.pbo, this will solve anticheat troubles, on servers that specifially check the bin.pbo and the language.pbo if they have changed..

Made a post about how to easily get ur game!, scroll a bit down at the link! http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....;st=105

I see a lot of ppl complaining that the 1/6th of the world is able to play ArmA, while all the English players are not! This complaint is false and it isn't nececairy to wait anymore!!! DONT WAIT You can get the game right now, from a Czech or German shop, whichever you prefer, and CONVERT the game <span style='color:red'>FULLY into English</span>... (German patcher is on the way, released in a few days). THERE IS <span style='color:red'>NO NEED TO WAIT</span>, GET ARMA NOW FROM ONE OF THE SHOPS YOU PREFER: ( they all send across the world!! ) Germany: www.bol.de www.amazon.de ( Know another shop?! Post it ASAP! ) Czech:: www.bontonland.cz (Know another shop?! Post it ASAP ! ) Can´t pay online etc? You probably got friends around the globe somewhere, see if they can get it and send it to you! Easy money transfers are usually done through paypal, and as I know for almost sure... you can transfer money for FREE throughout whole europe just by bank transfers!! Important links: How to play the Czech Version in English, FULL conversion ( German patch will be up in a few days, when german is released!! ) FAQ: Yeah, when BIS releases a patch, it will probably check the version you're running as well as every single file in your installation folder. What if it refuses to patch because some files are edited? Then you follow my readme in how to put back the backuped files or the files that are on your dvd, both described in my readme. Besides, I don't know how legal it will be to copy the real BIS released English files from your friends copy to your copy when the English one get's released.. BTW, afaik... it doesn´t check all the files in your installation folder, but only the files that the patch applies to. And what about the anti cheat thing ? We are working on methods on how to convert the game to English without having to patch the bin.pbo and the language.pbo,  this will solve anticheat troubles, on servers that specifially check the bin.pbo and the language.pbo if they have changed..

Read the first post, just after the readme, and you will know. -
Huh? The only launchers that can be packed are rpg-22 and m72 and you can only fit two of those into a rucksack. So a maximum of two launchers can be carried by one person. Same goes for the reloadable launchers, you can have the laucher and either one or two rounds for it. Why pack launchers, when you can take carl gustav with you, and 1 or 2 carl gustav ammo bearers with each 2-4 rockets with them... more than enough.. Besides, I wanna see you guys running around in reallife with 7 magazines, carlgustav/at4/law launcher, 4 rockets, binos, nvgoggles, and then walk for a few hours WGL rocks the clock, most comprehensive and well though balance between Realism and Gameplay!

Then the other world is crying for nothing. Everybody can order their game from Czech (www.bontonland.cz) and from Germany (www.buy-arma.com www.bol.de), and convert it into English.... What are you guys waiting and complaining about?

Hey.. If you have trouble with sound or think it doesn't sound proper, you then go write a report about it or you turn some options on and off to see if it gets better? (There are even only 2 options, how hard can it be to turn them on/off to see the difference?) Really, even a non-pro will look at those things first usually. And I really hate these partially false conclussions, simply because they screw the image ppl get from the game.... Full priced game? I bought my Czech version for 35 euro, in my books.. that's cheap Odd or not-odd, could be... but the problem where vehicle and other sounds seem to have no possitioning except "right on top of you"... is a bug with the hardware acceleration.About the Doom, Quake, bla bla, dunno which version of OpenAL they use, that could also have effect, but either way... it's a bug nomatter who's mistake it is, and I don't know any reason whatsoever why BIS wouldn't fix this... Ppl want to know which games were buggy at release, as ArmA, to my opinion: - Oblivion - Gothic 3 - OFP - Vietcong 1 - Vietcong 2, still gives unwanted crashes! - BF2 Now compare the realism, world, possibilities and abilities, units, modability, mission creation ability etc. etc. of ArmA to any game out till date, and tell me honestly you believe that 35 euro, or 45 in germany is too much for such a game, even with the what i call 'little-bugs'. ArmA is not the sequel to BF2 ladies... it's a sequel to OFP... We don't get fast paced action, 600 fps, dead, spawn, dead spawn  like in BF2  & alikes Simulators don't make the arcade lovers happy, as the arcades don't make the simulation lovers happy

I know what he meant, im asking if he knows what switches the language; the .exe or the key. Look at my translation thread for reference info what im talking about
