Arkwright Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 In previous versions, when changing the value of "\DCSWorld\Config\lang.cfg" from "EN" to another language such as "RU", the language of the game UI would change. For the current version, the language does not change from EN. Current version: 2.8.4.39731 (Steam)
Flappie Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 If I remember correctly, you need to run a DCS repair afterwards. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/repair/#2463807 ---

Flappie Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) I've just tried it and it worked. So the procedure in 2023 is: Edit "\DCSWorld\Config\lang.cfg". Run a DCS repair in slow mode. Edited June 11, 2023 by Flappie 1 ---
Arkwright Posted June 11, 2023 Author Posted June 11, 2023 Thank you for your reply! But I'm using the Steam version, so I didn't know how to "DCS repair". The Steam version has language settings on the Steam side. I confirmed that the language in DCS becomes Russian when the setting on the Steam side is set to Russian. Actually I want to change it to "JP". In the settings on the Steam side, you can only set the languages that DCS World supports. Japanese is not included. However, DCS contains some Japanese data. For example, the FA-18C Training Mission includes Japanese. Until the previous version, these data could be read just by setting "lang.cfg" to "JP".
Flappie Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 After you modify the lang.cfg file, try the Steam "Verify game files" feature. Maybe it will work. https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB Let me know. If it doesn't, open a support ticket : log into DCS website, click "Support", then "Create a new ticket". ---
Arkwright Posted June 12, 2023 Author Posted June 12, 2023 When I changed "lang.cfg" to "JP" and then tried "Verify game files", "lang.cfg" changed to "EN" and the DCS language remained English. I will create a ticket on Support. Thank you!
