Solved Language in Anno 1800 randomly changes from English to other languages.
0 Likes/5 Replies/459 Views
My game keeps changing the default language. I am in the US, and after a few minutes, the game changes from English to Spanish/Italian. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game--without any language support except for English, and the game continues to change languages. This is a new development, but even not using the newest DLC, it still does it. When I try to change the language back in the settings, it doesn't work. I have read that this has been happening to players for a while now. Does Ubisoft have a fix for this? It's enough to make me cancel my subscription.

Hey there @DWPaks
Thanks for reaching out, apologies for the delayed response.
Are you in the middle of a game when these language changes occur?
Does this occur after verifying the game's files too?
And are there any trends in what you're doing in-game before these changes take place too?Official Response -

Hey there, I would love a followup of this, as it has started happening to me today as well.
At first it randomly rotates to languages and after a while its only ?????????? ??????? ?????? ???? instead of words- I tried verifying the game files trough steam, no changes.
- I have checked the engine.ini file, the settings there are both text and audio to english. when i started the game it was somehow showing a french loading screen.

@Ubi-TheBerry
Same symptoms here;
"First the language keeps rotating and eventually turns into squares or question marks"(depending on your supported fonts, its something unreadable anyway)
I managed to fix this by
1. close the game.
2.Verify the game files trough steam (found no errors in my case)
3. Delete "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Anno 1800\config/engine.ini"
4. Reboot the game and it should be defaulted to first boot (make sure to change settings again that you had changed before) -
Hello there @The_Wolfdale
Apologies for the delay in our reply.
I'm glad to hear that verifying the game files and deleting the configuration file helped solve the issue for you! That's great news
Thank you for sharing the steps you followed as well.
If you do happen to encounter any more issues or have questions, feel free to reach out anytime!Official Response
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
