Rudel_chw Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Hi guys, I'm french and my DCS is in french. I would prefer to have DCS in english. How could I do that ? In the install folder of DCS , look for the config folder. In there you find the lang.cfg file ....change the letters to your preffered language (using a real text editor, like Notepad++ ... dont use Windows' Notepad) .... and then perform a dcs_updater repair. Valid language codes are - EN, RU, DE, ES, CZ, FR and CN Cheers!

Rudel_chw Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Whatever i tried , language don't switch. Stuck to windows language. Very annoying to not having the choice to chance to English. Please describe in detail the steps that you’ve tried ... its difficult to help with so little data.

Maxpilot Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) As I have the same problem, I'll continue here: Changed language in said file (DCS World OpenBeta\Config\lang.cfg) from "DE" to "EN" (Notepad++) and did a "DCS_updater.exe repair" -> got a message of successful repair, but no change of language from german to english in UI. PS: In "DCS World OpenBeta\l10n" still only one folder "de". PPS: Seems the problem was I deleted "CRLF" after "EN" in "lang.cfg". After inserting a new line and repair again it worked.

Red Dog Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Didn't even have to make a repair update. Simply changing from FR to UK in said file and simply restarting DCS did change the language to english for me (DCS stable 2.5.5, no beta) That's good because honestly some of the key definition in french (probably badly translated) were confusing as hell and it made creating a HOTAS file really complicated.

Rudel_chw Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Didn't even have to make a repair update. The repair is to make sure that any dcs file that is language specific, gets replaced by the correct language version. It takes just a couple of minutes to run, so no point in omitting it.
