just be patient, i guess by the time wotlk comes out in china, say in 2010, we will mostlikely be having the same patch and can use our eu/us games as before.


rofl
I guess I just should get totaly drunk and log in with my chinese wow at midnight, then run around IF and curse about chinese gvmt., so that i can get banned after 1hour and never be able to play again.
hmmm, probably wont make any difference anyway, cause not being able to play with an english or german version is like not being able to play at all.

No i said this cuz you don't need to understand your interface to do some PvP. So you just can play in Chinese.

It's my case. And i'm quite good at it.

EDIT : I will add that, if you look at my avatar more carefully, you'll see that it would not have been very smart from me to say PvErs are noobs.

Play WOW in chinese? No way. Wasting time.

We have some experts here and for sure they're going to find a way.

I know Hirna, of course you can play, i did play with a chinese version for allmost 2 yrs.
it just makes certain things easier, like AH, looting or quests etc.

I guess I am just going a bit fou with all thats going on and so the term noob just got me, sorry if i missunderstood, i know you didnt mean it personal.

No problem, same thing for me it drives me mad to have lost a 52 mage and eventually not to be able to play anymore.
But the principal is that I still have my main account with all my 70's thanks to a friend, so if I ever play again, I won't be totally lost Smile

We need to do much more testing, notably whith an non-WLK EU/US install.

I just have a WOTLK US install for now, the donwloads of chinese client and patching my tbc english client will take at least 2 days, you are our only hope...

I have an idea. No joking now.

We should announce a competition on the big chinese WOW forums.

The guy, who present us at first a running western language wow client on chinese servers will get the price.
I am willing to pay 500RMB in the pot. If we all collect some money here on the forum, there should be a nice salary to win.

Again, I am not joking. What do u guys think about this.

Lee, what do you think about this? You are familar with the chinese wow forums. For sure, here in China are many good software freaks which should be able to find a quick solution. If you think it will work, can you help us with the announcement on the big forums?

Yeah we can try but someone have to explain everything, my chinese is rudimentary.

But I'm sure we can find a solution, actually besides some files, the wow packages are almost identical between the chinese and EU versions. If we really cannot make an EU/US client work we can still replace the files containing the chinese texts etc with the english ones.
But to have this working you must have two TBC client one chinese one EU/US and then you can start working on it Smile

You really think ? I don't because we could actually download a language pack on the official website, that means you have to ADD something, not to perform a simple modification.
Well as I said I don't have my folders with me, so I won't be of any help for now, at least I can tell you guys what I think of your ideas, this will avoid losses of time Very Happy

I'm not talking about copying files I'm talking about changing the files inside the chinese packages.
but even In the past you could simply copy your folder enUS inside the data folder of the chinese client and change the locale inside the config.wtf to get your chinese client working in english. I know it, caus I did it...

i have an idea!!

there are such things as language packs. it lets you to play in a different language than the language of the game you got originally.

would this work with CWOW?

http://www.wow-europe.com/en/downloads/elp/

that way we could just buy CWOW from some random store and change the language.

You could do this in the past, acutally no need to download a package,
1/just go to your wowEU(US)/data folder copy the folder enUS or enGB or deDE depending the language you run
2/then past it in the chinese wow/data folder.
3/open your chinese wow/WTF/config.wtf with notepad and change the line
SET locale "cnZH"
with
SET local "enUS" or "enGB" or "deDE", "frFR" depending the language you are running.

In the past it worked but using our foreign client on chinese servers also worked. But someone must try this to see what happens log wise etc...

The download for a english language pack is also running now. The idea is worth a test for sure.

Bolomas, are you able to download also a language pack. Even if it doesn't work directly, at least we can analyse the MPQ files. I thin, you also have some experience in MPQ extracting.

If we are able to extract the language files in the MPQs, that will be an improvement. If i don't see skeletons in the game, I don't take care.
Maybe we can take the language files from the pack, extract them and change them with files inside the chinese MPQs.

the package you download will be exactly the same that the ones in your german wow/data/deDE folder. I already used this method in the past, you can trust me Wink. It's like if you were downloading a whole deDE or enGB folder, to add it in your wow/data folder. after download you'll have to download the patches for the package language you downloaded, but you ll end up with the same files version, the 3.1.3.9941...
The first thing worth trying once you get two TBC at 3.1.3 is copying the folder "deDE" inside chinese wow/data/ and modify the config.wtf as mentioned on the previous post. It'll have the same effect than using the language pack.

23hours of download left for my chinese client. Won't be able to test things today Sad

Hopefully a non Woltk EU/US client will solve the problem.

Maybe you already know, but anyway..

The chinese client has 2 folders in the data folder.

zhCN
enCN

If you running the game with in enCN version you have at least english soundfiles.

One interesting thing to try would be to copy the chinese wow folder zhCN and copy it in the eu/US client then starting with chinese wow.exe.

We could see if the version problem comes from outside or inside the language folder.

When I see
7/30 10:41:05.546 Login program=WoW platform=Win locale=zhCN
I wonder if they didn't change the way the game log to the server and now check the locale of the game. If locale isn't zhCN or enCN then you cannot connect.
If it's the case then it will be difficult to have an english wow on chinese servers in the futur. If not impossible.

OK guys,

I have a FRESH and PURE german TBC client installed. Patched to 3.1.3 9947. I logged on EU servers but got the message, that my EU account is for WOTLK but the installed Version is only TBC. So it is confirmed by Blizzard, that no WOTLK data is on this installation.

What should I try now? I cannot thinking anymore :-)

You could do this in the past, acutally no need to download a package,
1/just go to your wowEU(US)/data folder copy the folder enUS or enGB or deDE depending the language you run
2/then past it in the chinese wow/data folder.
3/open your chinese wow/WTF/config.wtf with notepad and change the line
SET locale "cnZH"
with
SET local "enUS" or "enGB" or "deDE", "frFR" depending the language you are running.

In the past it worked but using our foreign client on chinese servers also worked. But someone must try this to see what happens log wise etc...

OK. I did it. I copied the fresh installed TBC deDE folder inside the chinese data folder. I changed the config.wtf and get after 3 seconds a wowerror.

The file what brings the errormessage is DBFiles\Achievement.dbc

This file is inside the locale.MPQ

you copied the deDE folder under

M:\Kopie von World of Warcraft - CN\data

and you modified config.wtf to SET locale "deDE"

right?

exactly

There must be something with the locale.MPQ file.

Also interesting. As soon as I copy my deDE folder in the chinese data folder, I get no wowerror, but when I try to login, I get the message, please contact the support, there is something wrong with your installed game.

So no other MPQ folder except enCN and zhCN is allowed in the data folder.

They really don't like, that we play in a western language.

can you recheck that config.wtf say

SET locale "deDE"(without typing mistake)

and delete the cache folder before you start the game?

well that sucks then... I'm a little bit clueless to speak frankly.

You guys don't know what they exactly did to fix the first evil patch when tbc was about to come? I'm not even sure it's the same problem now but there might be some useful infos.

I renamed now my locale-deDE.MPQ to locale-zhCN.MPQ changed the wow.ini inside.

Now I got an errorbox

ERROR #131 (0x85100083) File Corrupt
Program: M:\Kopie von World of Warcraft - CN\Wow.exe
File: DBFilesClient\Startup_Strings.dbc

I mean "Startup_Strings.dbc" sounds like the right way, right?

How can I open dbc database file. Need to check opn google, I think.

Alex perhaps try to change your wow.ini line to

Region=3 instead of Region=5

then we see if the message is different.

first of all i want to thank all of you for trying and finding a solution.

worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship worship



I was just thinking about the fact, that due to the chinese govmt. blizz had to change some content of cwow, like you cant see skelletons etc.

i remember that before june 7th when using my german wow i was able to see all these forbiden things.

maybe some dude in beijing got pissed off and told blizz that they should do something about it.
if so it will take some skill to undo it.


BUT I AM OPTIMISTIC, no wait "they" arent realy that clever, so its prob. just a stupid file that f**ks up the whole thing Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad
