Hi, malibu and welcome back to our site


Gosh - it has been so long since I had this problem...


Did you activate the History Mods in your switcher? I am almost sure that it is only a matter of activating something in UP, but I got a mental block at the moment.

Thanks Fireskull. I initially tried but then avoided mods because of the complexity (a while ago), but the user friendly UP 2.01 has brought me back! I can't pass up the oportunity to play with 6dof and Cert's AI mod! Those two alone make the stock game seem unplayable!

I get the problem with no mods activated, and it goes away when I activate "stock 4.09m".

I didn't activate a History Mod. I can try that later.

I did a google search and somewhere someone posted a similar problem. The advice that user got was to install BoE over the mod. I may try that as a last resort.

Well, there is always the Search here at AAS. There have been a bunch of threads in the past on this subject.

Thanks. I forgot about the search function. I'm so used to combatace where it doesn't work!

Anyway, I did find a lot of posts on the subject, with few different responses to how to resolve the issue.

A very common one was just a link to a supposed solution, but the link was dead. Is this something from the old AAA site? Anyone know what it's probably pointing at?

The other common solution was to copy and paste the text from each english campaign file to its russian counterpart, since the modded .exe is defaulting to russian files. I'd rather not do this, since it will probably take a very long time. Plus, I'm not sure why this would be the issue, since, as I stated before, I had a modded install with BoE just after xmas and did not have this problem. Also, If this was really the problem, I'm not sure why it would only affect BoE campaigns instead of all campaigns.

The only thing I can think of is that I didn't apply the files from the BoE patch in Dec, and the instal order may have been different. Although I did have the enjoyr patches installed last time, which from what I read contains a fix for the russian text. I could try installing enjoyr at this point, but I was hoping to not have enjoyr installed, as I don't like wading through a ton of campaigns to find something to fly.

Is there something else I missed in my search?

Of course, the last option is to
