Red Alert 3 Install Language Pack Error

I cant install it either! How annoying. I've just waisted £40 on this game.

The following is the error message I get on install: It says that there is an error reading from the file Mapsmultiplayer.big. And its asking me to verify that it exists and that the system can access it. Does anybody have any as to what's going on here? My PC specs are as follows: Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit AMD Athlon 3500+ 2.7Ghz 2GB 800Mhz DDR2 RAM ATI Radeon 3600 HD.

I am having problems installing game (this is my 2nd store bought copy of game), tried on 2 different computers and 2 different OS, one Vista and other one is XP Pro. Here is the error message I get: 'Error reading from file E: Data Movies A03TH14.vp6. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.' Even if I say 'ignore' I get another similiar error message on next movie file.

I am not sure what to do. EA was no help they just sent me a new copy which again didn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks to all.

Im looking for more full game translations, so its time to create a small tutorial about: how to create a language pack?! In the attached game-translation.zip you can find the following files: ingstr12.exe - Ingame Strings editor, this file is needed to edit the red alert string tables (conquer.eng and editor.eng) conquer.eng - main game string table, contains all unit names, menu text etc etc. Editor.eng - edwin map editor string table mission.ini - contains all mission briefings tutorial.ini - contains all text triggers ra-clean-cam - textless pictures for all units WOLAPI.MIX - emtpy.mix file in the correct ra format - After you are done editing all text in the.ini and.eng files you will need to download a program to convert and add your files to the WOLAPI.MIX - After installing fire up the mixer, browse in the left explorer to the place where you saved the done.png unit picture and in the right explorer choose your target folder. Now right click on your.png files and click on 'convert as SHP'. Make sure you dont choose SHP (TS) and you dont have any mix file open in the right explorer, else converting wont work Now browse to the wolapi.mix and open it, drag and drop all the converted.shp.ini.eng files from your windows explorer into the xcc mixer window where the wolapi.mix is loaded. Now copy the Wolapi.mix into your redalert folder, done.

The following language packs are already available: French German (censored) German (uncensored) Spanish Russian (partial done) Download links are below. To be able to use the language packs on older versions of ra you will need to rename them to wolapi.mix (you dont need to rename them for portableRA) Let me know if you need any help translating the game, i might jump in and we do it together. The following language packs are already available: French German (censored) German (uncensored) Spanish Russian Well, would be nice if you linked to the sources you got the unofficial translations from (unless you made them yourself that is). I assume the Russian one comes from? I made them myself Boris helped me with the russian pack, and epsilon with the spanish one hehe The String table for the russian one was taken from an old mod tho Thanks for your link, i never seen this site and my russian language pack is also incomplete cause its freakin' complicated do to with this cyrillic stuff. So might replace mine with this if its complete. BTW you should give me a list of all English strings that are hard-coded Funky, so i can un-hardcode them.?Game host?????????Internet????Unexpected error occurred communicating with Westwood Online.???Connect?Westwood Online Login???Nickname????Password????Save????Login cancelled.????Please enter your login nickname.???Please enter your login password.???Error saving nickname/password.?That nickname is in use.

Oddly enough, the German and French version already had that migrated to the strings file; only the English one had it hardcoded. That's very interesting. But then again, similar things can be observed in the history of Dune II: some multi-language support was added very early, with only a theoretical possibility of a translation in mind, and then it came to actual translations, and of course this prompted further modifications where needed. For example, Dune II v1.0 can be set to German and French with a three-language setup programme, in which case it will read the text files with GER or FRE extensions instead of ENG; the patched US v1.07 adds further support for the swapping of images that contain text, such as the interface buttons, the title screen and the Select Your House screen; finally, true three-language European releases add support for non-English unit voices and Mentat speech. Oh, and among those, the EU version adds a narrower sidebar font (and a theoretical possibility to use the regular English sidebar font and the narrower one for other languages only) and a fix for unit hotkey commands to circumvent the fact that in French both the Move and the Attack commands start with the letter A. Harisson also did textless cameos and posted them at 'Sleipnir's Stuff' sounds vaguely familiar.

I visited that site a long time ago I guess. Those cameos are made by hand, not some long-lost originals, right? I did way back, only with a darkened background (that pack was a spin-off of an unofficial C&C Russian translation by SiberianGRemlin). I actually used the scanned images of the C&C strategy guide renders to get a more accurate reconstruction of the missing parts of the images.

Man, that was some tedious work!
