so i signed up for Guangdong #4 server, i used my WOW and TBC CD from america and now i cannot see realms...please help =(

I had to reformat my hard drive and have now reinstalled TBC and have got the same problem. When I load the game, I cant see any realms in the realm lists. Really weird...spent about 3 hours reading through the forum and have tried a lot of things but still cant get it to work.

I have the fonts installed. The realmlist is set at cn1.grunt.wowchina.com and the config.wtf has a realmname set for 马多栏.

Interestingly, in the config file, the locale is set for enUS...i tried to change this, but it always switches back when after I load the game.

Anyway, if anyone has any solutions...would be nice to hear. Where is Naklin when you need him eh?

yeah lamine my locale is set to enus also....since i have a chinese girlfriend i am installing chinese version....it might take me about 2 months to learn what the cahracters mean for spell dmg and stuff.... but if anyone can help it would be awesome to play in english lol

Check the forum there is severall posts how to fix the problem.
The locale has no influence Nak and i tried it before.
Use the way with the set`realmlist and it should work.....worked even on Vista sweeet......

when did i ever say the locale setting inside the file had ANY meaning, stItCh ? Please revise your comments when you refer to me, kthx. Otherwise just refrain from correcting me if you maybe are confused and don't know what input locale for non-unicode character tables means. That may have been the only time when i talked about locale, and that has to do with the OS rather than a file inside of your game folder, as WoW uses non-unicode character sets for text input (as dos a Command prompt window, for example).

So again, please quote me where i said the allegedly wrong information, or just stop letting people think i am giving wrong advice.

Sorry that i did not post it erlier could save u guys some time and props to ur good posts before i did not find it without knowing what u guys did before

So Naklin what are we going to do ,my mean, how we get the build version of the exe rebuild. I believe you also see that the set Language"deDE" is in the config file and i belive that string has a conflict with the chinese .exe!

Anyway it works lets hope the next patch brings back same build numbers!

my 2 cent :****:
