Hey, guys.

I have installed Fallout 4 via Steam, and started a new game, and some of the items are named in Russian.

WTF? How do I fix it? I reinstalled the game ciuple times, all settings are in English...what else?

Do you have any mods installed? If it's only ~some~ items that are affected, it may be a Russian-language mod?

Well, i did have installed some mods, but they are from Nexus...and they in English..I quess.

i tried to just run Fallout 4 without mods, via .exe, still - some items are in English..

Nexus mod manager isn't a russian creation, is it?

By Russian, do you mean Cyrillic or Russian with English lettering?

No, literally Russian.

Russian item name, and in Cyrillic.

Wow! Weird. I wonder if you have the alphabet setting off somewhere.

I checked, Steam in English, in fallout4.ini - en....I even reinstalled game, still - same.

I could reinstall Windows, but that's too much. Is there a way to turn it back in English?

(not all item are in Russian, just some)

Phew, solved it. Turned out some mods were running automatically, like mods, decreasing weight for some items.

I disabled the, in Nexus, and its all in English.

Finally.

Thanks for the assist, lads.

If you're on W10 or W7, you can set your alphabet/language easily in your settings menus. If you're in 8.0 or 8.1 it's more complicated. You many need to go in and reset the language/alphabet settings and reinstall your sets.

I had a problem on 8.1 with it resetting during an update to either Cyrilic or one of the Chinese characer sets regularly (and not for everything, mostly the flexible stuff - i.e. random items). It quit once I upgraded to 10, but I probably reinstalled the Sets probably a dozen times before that. I finally figured out that I actually needed to go to the install settings and choose only the sets that I wanted (usually through word) (in my case, english, roman, hebrew and arabic along with symbol sets including all 4 wing-ding sets).

Hope this helps. I don't know if it will affect your game, but am guessing that, if you're running windows it's running through the filter rather than direct unless you're actually streaming.

You're Russian generated pirated copy of Windows getting you again? ;P

I know this Problem from the CK in Skyrim. I made some Mods with the german Version of the Ck and People who used my Mods had some Words in german. I hope Bethesda can fix this.

Fallout 1,2 made a huge impact to my life, spend countless hours playing...Unfortunately, that was in 90-s, very [censored] time in my place, and there were no alternatives to pirate versions.

So - nope, I bought this game in Steam, in order to pay my debts to this wonderful game.

That what Russians do kinda like lannisters.

There are probably two or three legal copies of Windows in Russia. Maybe he is one of them

There was at least one mod I read about where the mod creator had the Russian version set up as the default and the English version had to be downloaded from the Files page of the Nexus. Since only ~some~ words were being changed, that seemed the more likely culprit.

The US Embassy has a ton of legal copies!

Well . . . the US Embassy is not "in Russia" so much as it is "surrounded by it," right?

Aren't the plots embassies are built on "technically" sovereign territory of the nation in question, and thus NOT, technically part of the sovereign that surrounds them?

I could be completely wrong about that, and it is actually even more complicated than that, but it makes for a fun brain-teaser.

A family friend of my mother was an ambassador for the country of Austria. He was the ambassador for Thailand and I think that included Vietnam as well. This was about 20 years ago.

I never asked that question when my family was invited for a dinner around Christmas time about 20 years ago when we were in Austria for the winter to help take care of my Grandmother.

I think it is a bit more complicated than that.

Yes... yes... semantics. I was making a joke. Sheesh.

Yeah, apparently I was pretty much wrong.
