AoC Language Files

[BugA_the_Great]

Have you ever wanted to have your copy of "Age of Empires II - The Conquerors" in some other language, either English or some you`re more familiar with? Well, it is possible to change the language files, even when the original game discs are in different language then you prefer

Note that this language files will change only in-game text (menus, names, descriptions, etc.) while the sound files will stay intact (maybe we`ll talk about it more in some other topic ).

Each full language pack has the the following content:

• "History" - folder, containing all .txt files needed for in-game History info
• "language.dll" - language file (AoK)
• "language_x1.dll" - language file (AoC)
• "language_x1_p1.dll" - language file (AoC)

AoC Language Files download:

• DOWNLOAD Bulgarian / Български (missing History)
• DOWNLOAD Chinese (simplified) / 简体字 (missing History)
• DOWNLOAD Chinese (traditional) / 漢語 (missing History)
• DOWNLOAD Czech / Čeština (missing History + language_x1_p1.dll)

How to install:

2. Unpack the language pack (.zip) file to your AoC installation folder
   (usually C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires II), overwriting existing files.

How can you help AoC players all over the world?

If you own any of the missing files, or you even have files for some other languages, please upload them here so we could complete the language pack list, and make gaming experience as pleasantful as possible for all the AoCers all over the world!

Slovak/Slovenčina
-this one is with installer

[BugA_the_Great]

^^ Thanks Added to the first post (as .zip).

I prefer zipped files over installers because you have the power of deciding what happens. For example, I installed Slovak language in some folder on desktop, just to get language files, but it still changed something in my original AoC installation, causing loss of all the text in-game Even upon putting back the original English language files, error persists - probably because of some font overwriting.
Well, I guess game reinstallation will fix it

Are any more files needed, beside the ones I listed ("History" folder, "language.dll", "language_x1.dll", "language_x1_p1.dll")?

Omar, feel free to post if you find one (but the REAL one, not some fake )

OK, I fixed my problem without reinstallation, and because I remember some others had similar problem (in-game text completely missing), here`s the simple solution (it`s a font related problem):

1) Insert your AoK CD, browse to "SYSTEM\FONTS", and copy all the files from there.
2) Go to your "C:\WINDOWS\Fonts" folder, and paste the copied files there, overwriting existing files.
3) Restart your computer.

[iberico]

Some asian versions:
* Chinese Simplified, (provided by Alex Jean)
* Chinese Traditional, (provided by Alex Jean)
* Japanese, (provided by [SOK]mimio)
* Korean, (provided by _SKY_Mintoy

* Also added italian "language_x1_p1.dll" file.

NOTE:
I'm packing here the same "language_x1_p1.dll" file for Chinese Traditional and Simplified versions.
I don't know if there is a different file for them.
There is also a third chinese version, (not Simplified neither Traditional), but I couldn't found it.
