Language Tag File

Post by Marching Thru Georgia »

Can someone on the team tell me the name of the file that holds all the language tags and what folder it goes into? In the old game it was named \Text\sowstr.db but this is not the case for the new game. Thanks.

\Base\Layout\Media\Language\LanguageEnglish.xml

If you don't have it, Notepad++ is the app of choice for opening and editing these xml files.

Errr...you don't happen to have a macro laying around to convert the old style to the new, do you? :whistle:

Since all the units were new to us we did not really have anything to convert from. Sorry. :(

FWIW, you may also need OOBNames.xml which is common to all language packs.
