Language Support

At this point, Age of Empires II: Forgotten Empires is available in the following languages:

To install, just unzip the files in your Age of Empires II folder, all files should be put into place automatically.

If you’re having troubles with these languages, please check here.

We would like to officially support the following languages in the future:

  • Portuguese

However, for this, and more languages, we need your help! Do you want to see Age of Empires II: Forgotten Empires translated into your native language? You can take matters into your own hands.

A complete translation consists out of 2 parts:

  1. History files
  2. Game data

The new history files can be found in /Games/Forgotten Empires/History and are plain *.txt files.
The game data file can be found in /Games/Forgotten Empires/Data and is called language_x1_p1.dll

To open this file you will need this program

  1. There is a Unicode problem of .txt files for Chinese Tradition (maybe the other languages got same problem), which just didn’t show correct characters in game and notepad, but it will display correctly when I open those .txt files in web browser. Thanks your hard work.

  2. I can help with translation to portuguese (pt – Portugal).
    I know you may already have support for portuguese (from brasil) but there are differences and It can be a little frustrating.
    If you need any assistance let me know how I can help :)
    BTW thanks for everthing :)

    I download the game in Spanish, but the campaigns (campaigns only) are not completely in English. Very good game, I would like more if the campaigns were in Spanish. Please respond.
