Changing languages

Hi gents,

I tried to change the game's language from spanish to english, but no program in the CDs or in the game directories allowed it afaik.

I tried to make a second install of the game (former one in spanish for campaigns, newer in english for multiplayer), but no sucess again.

I had to uninstall the game, and choose english as the language for the new install. It went OK, of course... As a side note, it's very positive that the uninstall routines did not deleted the saved games (I did a previous backup, but I haven't to use it)

So my questions :?: are:

Is it possible to have multiple installs of the game in the same PC? If yes, tell me how please.
And, is it possible to change the game's language without reinstalling the game? Again, any advice will be welcome.

TIA

You can only have one installed version on the PC. What you could do is make a copy of the English version & then copy over the language files which are all on CD 2. The copy should function normally & you can play in Spanish. It wont from the start menu though. Each language is in a separate numbered dir. Find the Spanish version by looking at the localisation.txt file. Copy this dir over & it should be ok :)
