Language of savegame and ESM files?

Post » Sat Jan 11, 2014 6:02 pm

I want my Android Alchemy app and associated PC program to work for all languages. Does the game use the same filenames for savegames and its data files, if a non-English version is installed?

I need to know if I should provide for different names and not hard code them.

For savegames, I look for the following filenames My PC program looks for quicksaves and hard saves for extracting the current Alchemy info, and has an option to rename quicksaves so you can have more than one. It automatically looks for the .skse file for the latter operation.

  • quicksave.ess
  • autosave.ess
  • Save 32 - Sir Rick Skyrim 19.45.26.ess

I also need to identify vanilla games files (for linking ingredients to the DLC that adds them):

  • Skyrim.esm
  • Dawnguard.esm
  • Dragonborn.esm
  • HearthFires.esm

Are these filenames the same across all languages? If not, I will make them changeable.

Thanks!
