Hello all
I'm new the SHIII and obviously these forums. I installed GWX 3.0, selected some of those mods within it and some other mods:
Marlene_Dietrich
ail Das Boot officers mod v2.19
Thomsen's Sound Pack v3.2cg
Johnfb Crew Management and Officer Icons

I have text as English, Audio as German, and keyboard languages as English.

Does anyone know how i can get my instrument panel in the TDC back to English? I wasnt having this problem earlier..has anyone else experienced this?

Thank you so much.

WELCOME ABOARD! :sunny:

There is a mod that gives German on the instruments. It's a stand-alone, and I don't think any of the ones you list changes them to German. I'm not sure how they got that way, and I'm not sure to get them back.

I know it won't help now, but a word of caution for the future: Always keep a copy of the entire stock Data folder in a safe place. When something like this happens you can find the file and replace it.

Enjoy the German equipment in it's authenticity :03:

If not.. look in the Menu_1024_768.ini file for this filename de_menu.txt under the [G3B xxx] section.

Change the filename (German) de_menu to (English) en_menu. BUT the name plate sizes might also have to be changed ?

Or alternatively, and a safer method, uninstall each mod (JSGME) until english re-appears.
Or it might be in your Options Language Settings Screen - choose English or German
Start here and move backwards...
