Hi, my UFO:AI 2.4 doesn't seem to load any translations.
The game is in English available only, but I get only the most basic strings, like the main menu buttons are available. Longer texts are not visible to me, instead I just get something which looks like a placeholder.
For example, the entire campaign intro text is missing, instead I see strings like "intro_text_1", also the e-mails only have placeholders and a lot of other important texts are missing.
The campaign is almost unplayable without these texts.
In the options I see a list of all languages but all languages are gray except German (system language) and "No Language". This pretty much looks like the game failed to find the translations. Oh, of course I get the dummy strings, too, if I select "German". No matter which translation I select, I always get the dummy strings.
I use Arch Linux.
On my system, the translation files reside in /usr/share/ufoai/base/i18n.
The packfiles reside in /usr/share/ufoai/base.
If I start UFO:AI from the console and immediately quit after loading, I see one interesting line:
CL_LanguageInit: language settings are stored in configuration: none
At the very start, the output says that the packfiles get loaded. The output does
not mention the translation files being loaded.
All the other output is not translation-related.
Can anyone please tell my what went wrong with my UFO:AI?
