Province names in VV

[unmerged(254014)]

Hello

I've installed the vv 2.32 patch and have no province names, instead there are PROV(number). The original vae victis was installed in polish language - is this the problem and I have to reinstall it with english settings, or is there another option?

 

[AndrewT]

Yes, that is the problem. Only English and German are supported in 2.32c, I'm afraid.

I'll reinstall it then to english settings, thank you for your help

 

[AndrewT]

You don't need to reinstall, just edit settings.txt with Notepad and change the language to l_english

I've tried both language change and reinstallation, but the problem stays - even though I've installed it again on english language, province and scenario names are gone when I patch it to 2.32, sadly

Ah, in that case the patch installation went badly, and you will have to do a full reinstall, sorry.

First move any valued save games elsewhere. Then uninstall both games, and then manually delete the game directory - this is important. Reinstall Rome - choose a new directory like c:\games\rome instead of the suggested path. Then install VV over Rome (ie in the same directory), then apply the 2.3.2 patch over that same directory.

BTW please register your copy of VV here, thanks.

Thank you again, it works now great.

I'm afraid I can't register VV, though I've tried - I've bought a version which registers only main game, and same is for EU III and both expansions - somehow Napoleonic Ambitions don't register and I don't have a separate cd key for NA or VV, sadly... I've sent mail to the EU distributor in Poland regarding this problem, maybe they can fix it.

 

[AndrewT]

Yes, they will have to supply you with the right codes (which they in turn get from Paradox).

They've mailed me today, "sadly we do not have cd keys to those games". But they rarely give keys to register games they distribute, don't know why.

 

[AndrewT]

But it isn't CD keys you want, it's forum registration keys, which Paradox will give them for the asking. Mail them back.

They've mailed me saying that they do not have those registration keys :/

Kinda strange, they're distributing EU Rome: Gold under different name only, but have no keys for it...

 

[AndrewT]

If they don't have them, as they say, it's because they haven't asked Paradox for them - really, that's all they have to do.

Who is this distributor?

It's Cenega Poland

I'll mail them again, because there are more EU series that I don't have registration key to, which makes me inconvenient
