Robby1982 1 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hi, i have bought a f1 2019 legendary edition, and i experienced a lot of problems. It seems to be a waste of money. The installer is fully automatized and install only the english audio, but i'm italian. There is no way to install any other audio language, i don't want the english version of the game, i had paid for the italian version of the game. I try to install this game with the dvd, also with steam, but result is the same. There are not compatibility problem, with the audio card, the english audio working perfectly, the italian audio files are missing, and every localised part of the game not work There is a way to resolve this problem ? it seems to be not tested the game installation properly Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator Featured Comment BarryBL 8,720 Posted November 25, 2019 Administrator Featured Comment Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hi @Robby1982, To fix this, you will need to change the language in Steam itself. On the Steam menus, right click on the game and go to 'Properties'. In the top tab bar, go to 'Language' and then change to 'Italian'. This will download the Italian language pack for you. Should work from there Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 Steam is in italian, my friend has f1 2018 in italian working good, with a steam installation. All the other games are in italian only this has problems Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator BarryBL 8,720 Posted November 25, 2019 Administrator Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hi @Robby1982, Try switching to English and then back to Italian, this could trigger a clean re-install of the language packs you need. Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 Still not worked Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 What a delusion, i'll reconsider any other purchase of codemasters. Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator BarryBL 8,720 Posted November 26, 2019 Administrator Share Posted November 26, 2019 @Robby1982 Possibly you're Steam is in Italian, but your game is in English. Please retry the steps: On the Steam menus, right click on the F1 2019 game and go to 'Properties'. In the top tab bar, go to 'Language' and then change to 'Italian'. This will download the Italian language pack for you. Does this trigger a download on your F1 2019 game? It should start a short download installing the language pack you need. We've tested this solution here and it works correctly. Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 I posted the photo of the cover back, the game in fully italian. This looks like a work around, not a real solution Tried once more, nothing happened Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator BarryBL 8,720 Posted November 27, 2019 Administrator Share Posted November 27, 2019 Are your menus in Italian? We've tried our methods here and our solution has worked correctly. Try checking your settings in-game. Game Options>Settings>Audio Settings> Advanced Audio Settings Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 Installer menu was in italian, installation was in italian, in-game menu was in italian, audio only english. This solution not working for me, i don't know why is so hard to understrand. in advanced audio settings italian audio, mute, in english no problem with the sample audio. No more languages to try Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is that this makes me believe (like Barry), that you simply missed the change language option from Steam -> F1 2019 -> Right-click -> Propeties -> Language -> <Language> The physical release has the same language options as the Steam one, at least in F1 2018 and GRID 2019 which are the two games I've tried 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites

Moderator Featured Comment UP100 1,395 Posted November 29, 2019 Moderator Featured Comment Share Posted November 29, 2019 Here is a temporary solution until what you've reported can get fixed: 1. Find the F1 2019 folder (Default location: Steam Folder/steamapps/common/"F1 2019") 2. Navigate to F1 2019/audio/2019/speech 3. Rename all files that start with en_ to something else 4. Rename all files that start with it_ to start with en_ This means that you've renamed the Italian voice files to the English ones, but this may cause issues, and if you encounter any, please revert the changes. If you do not have the language specific files, try to change your language to English and then back to your preferred language 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites

Administrator BarryBL 8,720 Posted December 20, 2019 Administrator Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hi @oldeini, Have you tried the recommended at the top of the thread? Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 This is not a solution, but only a workaround. For me not working this "solution". Still not found any kind of solution, and i doubt i can find in a future, here i found only a totally waste of time and absolutely not respect. Sorry @oldeini, i can't help you Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator BarryBL 8,720 Posted December 20, 2019 Administrator Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hi @Robby1982, Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing the game? We've tested the solution here and it worked every time for us. Link to post Share on other sites
steviejay69 1,733 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Just thinking have the posters got a regionalised Italian version of Windows 10 and this is why the language pack fixes are not working? (And also that the Italian users maybe have the English language packs installed as additionals) It's possible because your test installations will be English (US) or English (UK), therefore your default audio packs will be different. I agree the settings trigger is a workaround, there should be an installation option that overrides any other regional settings in W10. @BarryBL @UP100 @Robby1982 @oldeini Link to post Share on other sites

I agree the settings trigger is a workaround, there should be an installation option that overrides any other regional settings in W10. @BarryBL @UP100 @Robby1982 @oldeini Downloading the language stuff is handled by Steam, so if the files do not exist, they haven't either picked the right language, or steam has forgotten to install them 😕 For example here is what my audio/2019/speech folder looks like. This is because I've selected the Japanese localization through Steam, so Steam downloaded the additional Japanese localization files. The game should then automatically switch to Japanese speech, but it seems that in this report's case, it hasn't happened. My workaround should work in those cases where the folder does look like this, but you just don't get the right speech files in-game. Link to post Share on other sites

Was more really thinking of WHY the workaround doesn't or can't be replicated. We could do with 'Useful' as a reaction or 'Informative' although I have marked 'Agree' Link to post Share on other sites
Robby1982 1 Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 @UP100 windows 10 is fully italian, is an hp commercial with italian warranty, so i'm sure that is not english version, cracked and more... There is not installed the english keyboard, or language pack. The reinstallation do nothing always the same problem, only english. I try also the spanish, same result.

I think the Italian language is not working because the OS IS Italian. The workarounds you are trying work if the OS is English with Italian language and voice packs installed. There have been language issues in many versions of Windows, not least Windows 10. Link to post Share on other sites
