There is German localisation in the files, but I do not know how complete it is.

 

[Raz0r]

Thanks for the answer. Otherwise i'll try the English version shouldn't be a problem but mother tongue is easier of course

I want to change my game from German to English. How do I do it?

Open settings.txt in C:\....\Paradox Interactive\Victoria 2

And change this

gui=
{
[COLOR="lime"]language=l_german[/COLOR]
}
graphics=
{
size=
{
	x=1920
	y=1080
}

to this

gui=
{
[COLOR="Lime"]language=l_english[/COLOR]
}
graphics=
{
size=
{
	x=1920
	y=1080
}

About the german version of this game:
Well, incomplete
But try this fix: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=492225
It contains more than 250 fixes concerning the german translation of Victoria 2

So, plz King or someone else: include these fixes in your next Victoria 2 patch...

Thanks for your help, guys.

However, I'm afraid it's not working for me. I still get everything in German (and what a sloppy German localisation that is. Paradox ought to have a word with whomeve's responsible.). Anyone got an idea what I ought to try next?

Right click on the file/Save as.

Then move this file into your Victoria 2 folder/localisation.

And it has been updated now too. It contains 350 fixes now...

But I don't want to play it in German anyway. I prefer playing the original version. Thanks though.

Hi guys i cant seem to get it to change langauge either.

though my problem lies in that it will not alow me to save the changes i make in the .txt file.

it always says that the file is wright protected.

 

[Rulestormer]

Then make it not write protected.
right click on the file, click on Properties (Eigenschaften in german)
and click the write protected thing away.

Then try it again.
However, i dont see how your file became write protected
maybe Windows is messing around in the program files folder.

 

[cg0101]

Nope still comes up with "zugrif verweigert" access denied.

any more ideas?

Right-click on settings.txt and open as Administrator

For future installs: Do never ever install games in the program files folder.

 

[cg0101]

I have now managed to edit the file but still have everything in german

Thanks for the help so far though!

The translations that PI does, are ridiculous and not acceptable.

I wanted to do the same, found it on my own and did change it to language=l_english. But its still german.
