When i try to start the game (Win version) i get an error saying:

Unknown language '1043' specified in the environment
variable LANG or LANGUAGE. Known languages:
English (en), Czech (cz), Danish (dk), Dutch (nl), Finnish (fi), French (fr), G
erman (de), Hungarian (hu), Italian (it), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Russian (
ru), Spanish (es)
Use SET LANG=language to select the language.
E.g. SET LANG=french
or SET LANG=es
Press any key to abort.

I get this with the latest and second latest alpha, haven't tested it with older versions, but I did had it working a while ago.

I use the TTDX Configurator and for testing i used the recomended settings of the application.
Search on the forum and in the manual of the patch but didn't find anything that could help me?

So please help me :)

open a command prompt and type:

Code: Select all

SET LANG=English
Alternatively, save this as ttdpatch.bat, and use it to run TTD instead the executable directly:

Code: Select all

@echo off
SET LANG=English
ttdpatchw.exe
Note that you can change 'English' to one of the other languages listed in the error message.
