    The textfiles are easily converted provided you have the english files somewhere at hand. Just install a mod and it will be in english (the mod, not the vanilla game).

    However, converting/replacing the sound files into English is either impossible or very very complicated. I myself had the UK version before and now, after buying the Gold Edition, I am stuck with the german localization, which is simply disgusting and full of errors. I wish I could do something about that and get back the english audio files.

    Xenophonia does something about the sounds but it requires to have the English audio in the first place.

    Other than that, to make your game German I imagine you would just need to replace your main pack files with English ones (exe file should be the same) and the audio dat/idx of course.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I must say this seems like a really nice community. This is the first forum I have posted on about this problem where people have actually bothered to reply to me...

    Does anyone know of anywhere I could get the English files?

    I'll probably just go into town at some point and pick it up from Gamestation or GAME or something cheaply.

    It is quite annoying though.

    Not to my knowledge. Though you could certainly ask for them to be uploaded (they are several gigs in size though)
