Unit Pack Compatibility Languages Project - Empire (UPC-EMP) - updated 30.3.18

[diablo460]

First of all THANK YOU for this work

I have recentrly re-installed darthmod + causa belli 2.2.
As i play the game in spanish, i also added your marvellous UPC spanish 1.6

The problem is that, for a considerable amount of units, no unit name is displayed (because the upc spanish is only at 1.6 of course).
But my doubt is that fi it would be posible to display in english the name of these untis that are not translated in spanish, instead of having blank spaces for this specific units.

I dont know if i was very clear haha...
Thanks for the time reading the post, and thanks again for the marvelous work!

Is this a UPC or original mod typo issue?

I tweaked it up as part of a compatch as part of a general stats fix since the APETI versions aren't released anymore. Yes, I'm feeling nostalgic.

Yes these are faults of the original vanilla localization. If you have corrected vanilla parts of the English localization, then I could integrate them officially.

My UPC mod is a bit newer than the original DMUC_UPC which is included in Darthmod. But yes certainly there could be lots of missing unit names.

The problem with the language system of Empire is, that even if you change your language to English in the Steam options, then the unit names aren't displayed automatically. So sadly there is no way to display unit names of mods which aren't included in the UPC at the moment. Only if the modder of the mod created an own UPC file somehow. I don't know if Causa Belli has an own UPC file.

Thanks for the answer Swiss Halberdier

Now i see how empire files work. Sad to not be able to make it this way.

And what about if i would translate it myself (only for spanish of course hehe), would you be able to include it in your mod??

Yes sure I could include your translation into the official UPC file. Please send me a pm via TWC with the link to the Causa Belli mod. And even better if you have the special Causa Belli language file, then please upload it for me somehwere that I can check it and see if I can manage it somehow.

Hey, love your unit mod however I have installed the compatibility english file for the names but it still doesnt show up. I checked and the file is in my data folder but it still doesn't work. Do you happen to know why?

Edit: I realized I had a loc file I was unaware of. Fixed the problem

Good that you fixed the problem. Yes if more than one updated language file (from mods) is in the data folder, then they are incompatible to each other and the UPC can't load sometimes.

Unfortunately, I have some technical difficulties. I try to play DME 8.0.1 in connection with AUM. Therefor I downloaded the latest version of UPC in german language (version 3.0). I added it into my pack-file and transfered the old file (UPC 2.7) into an seperate new folder in the directory, so that version 3.0 will be loaded.

If I start the game now, all works greatly, but every text in in English. I installed UPC (german, 3.0) a second time, but no different result .

What did I do wrong? What can I do to fix the problem?

Yes exactly the DME UPC file called DME_UPC_v2_7_german.pack or any other DME_UPC file should be removed from the directory here:

C:\Program Files\Steam (x86)\steamapps\common\empire total war\data

Please check if there are probably other language files from other mods which could conflict with the UPC. You can find the other language files by searching for these examples below. They are mostly called like this:

patch_***text.pack
patch_***loc.pack
movie_***text.pack
movie_***loc.pack
my_*loc.pack
***localisation***.pack

Another thing is that I didn't have the time to translate all entries of all mods in the UPC German. So I added at least the English unit names to the UPC file, that the players can at least see an English unit name, instead of just a blank unit name.

If you search for my AUM-EMP units in the custom battle screen, then you should see the German unit names as I translated all AUM-EMP units into German. Then it's clear that the UPC German gets loaded correctly.

Thank you for your help!!

The only file, which fitted to the description is the localisation.pack, but if I delete it, the game chrashes while starting.
I will go on with the "english" Version

That means a mixture between english and german - the menu-options say "save game" etc. while some other buttons are in german e. g. "Runde beenden"... crazy, but the system runs anyway. (regarding the unit names even standard line infantry is called in english)

Anyway a very great mod!

Hello UPC-EMP users,

I released a new version of the UPC-EMP.

- added several fixes of already included mods in all language versions
- added several German translations

- added additionaly all other remaining languages as new UPC versions

Russian / Czech / Polish / Japanese

These new languages contain all core vanilla entries in the related language. I added all UPC-EMP entries in English and you can see at least an English unit name.

There is a little rule in the UPC history. "It's better to have at least an English name there, as there is just a blank unit name."

Welcome to the forums marketgoose No problem at all. Yes exactly I placed the link to the overview section of all my UPC files. There you can just select the folder from the related TW game which contains the UPC files for them. As I don't have a premium Mediafire account an ad will be openend. Just click it away.

Swiss, I'm commenting from your AUM mod page where I was asking questions regarding editing UPC to change the name of Austria to Holy Roman Empire.

Your last comment to me:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

All vanilla "Tag" columns and their entries shouldn't be changed as otherwise the engine doesn't recognize anymore the entry in game.

So please leave the "Tag" column entry factions_screen_name_austria as it is and just change the entry "Austria" in the column "Localised String". Yes of course you can also change the related "Localised String" entry of the "Tag" column entry factions_screen_adjective_austria to your favour.

You can manually edit and change all entries in the "Localised String" column.

I just can't get the name to change. I have 100% followed these instructions by changing the name next to factions_screen_name but nothing changes. Is there anything else you can suggest?

Basically it should really work like I described it.
