How to change your Language in Crysis 2

Post » Fri Jun 03, 2011 12:46 am

Hi guys,

Crysis 2 chooses it's language based off what your system is using at the time of installation. This can be overridden if you need to by doing the following:

1) Navigate to your main Crysis 2 directory and open the file called System.cfg (with notepad or a text editor)

2) At the bottom of the file should be "g_language = XXX" (where XXX is the default system language).

3) Navigate to the Localized directory: Crysis 2/GameCrysis2/Localized and here lists the available language packs you have installed. Also states in the sys_languages section in System.cfg.

4) Now you know which languages you can use and change to whatever is supported/installed (depending on region).

---

Steam users: Right click on Crysis 2 in your Game Library -> Properties -> Language.
There you can chose you prefered Language.

Or: If you use steam. Right click on Crysis II in your Gamelist => Properties => Language. There you can chose you prefered Language.

I don't see the reason, why there is no option to change the language in the main menu. While I don't mind it, there are probably a fair amount of people who have trouble in doing so.

Hey Adam, this solution is a bit easier for amateurs don't you think?

this is great, i already knew this (from fooling around with files), but i just wanted to check to see if that didnt do anything bad. ive seen some russian videos on youtube, and i think the russian team-leaders and nanosuit voice are cool/interesting so this should be fun.

Is it possible to add languages that were not included in retail copy? My shop had French/German but I want to use English as a language.
