hi there,
i download the Warzone 2100 portable 2.2.4 today,
then i install it in c:\
when i run this program, get in the main menu,
i can't see the menu option,
because the menu option become something like missing font, empty foursquare.
anyone can help me?
thx a lot.

my pc:
OS : WinXP - Chinese Traditional


( categories: )

Unsupported

I believe it requires a custom font installed at the OS level to support Chinese, so it won't work. If you load it on another PC and manually set it to English, you should be able to use it in English on your PC.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

thx for help.

When the PA.Com menu that can add fonts comes out, will that fix this issue?

my temporary solution.

after few tests, i find my temporary solution.
the step are:
1.install.
2.run first time and quit the program.
3.copy your os font(TrueType) file to [your install dir.]\App\Warzone 2100\fonts\.
4.modify this file : [your install dir.]\Data\settings\config,
change the fontname=[your font TypeName].
5.start enjoy your program.

in my case, i use the SimHei.ttf truetype font,
then i start the program, i see the menu-option become chinese traditional.
for your reference.

thx everyone.

nice. And thanks for

The original installer from

The original installer from wz2100.net asks you, if you want these fonts installed for Traditional Chinese. Maybe this was missed in the portable version. Eye-wink
