ChinaLauncher forces the client language to english and intercepts some of the server calls to replace the chinese names with english ones.
http://killboard.nl/china/ChinaLauncher.exe
http://killboard.nl/china/english.dll
http://killboard.nl/china/english.dat
Just put the three files together in any folder and run ChinaLauncher.exe. On the first launch it will give you a file browser dialog for bin/ExeFile.exe (not eve.exe!), and then stores the command line in ChinaLauncher.ini.

When you need to buy stuff from a market hub, go to the system next to Perimeter.

gonna sticky this puppy.

Now, a lot of the location names are still chinese, or turn chinese after undocking, because they're requested from the server. Though might be able to work around that with the machonet cache files in %localappdata%

The other option, involving python code will always work, but that kind of opens the door to all sorts of abuse.

Jensius you beautiful motherfucker. Much love

Actually, the map data is in resui.stuff. Fixed it by changing

Code:

resui.stuff:0xc996
from
6D
to
5F

Doesn't really make sense to upload a 173MB file when the change is only 1 byte, perhaps i could write a quick patching tool.

**Hels** · June 8 2011, 04:10:14 PM

Well we're doing fine ATM. I think maybe hold off on uploading til you're done/made significant progress.

Or do some other sort of patching magic. Whatever you feel man.

That would have made it easier to find rancer last night. Does it change anything to do with linking system names in english?

Searching for systems in the world map control panel should work with that change.

Copying, pasting and deleting files is hard.

Was more thinking of them patching stuff. Might be easier for us to have an updatable patch tool thingy - if that makes any sense whatsoever.

Are we going to have to reinstall these files every time a patch comes out, or is that what you guys are talking about with the patch thingy and Im just having another dumb moment.
