Here is a quick idea of what i found out: to get english text and sound working, you need to:

1. Download these files from gdrive[drive.google.com] (~700 Mb) :

Far Cry 4\data_win32\sound_english.dat
Far Cry 4\data_win32\sound_english.fat
Far Cry 4\data_win32\worlds\fcc_main\fcc_main_english.dat
Far Cry 4\data_win32\worlds\fcc_main\fcc_main_english.fat
Far Cry 4\data_win32\worlds\multicommon\multicommon_englis h.dat
Far Cry 4\data_win32\worlds\multicommon\multicommon_englis h.fat

2. Copy over Steam\SteamApps\common\Far Cry 4\ folder ( all the files are already organized for you)

3. Locate two .bat files in Far Cry 4\data_win32

3.1 Far Cry 4\data_win32\rename.bat has

move sound_english.dat sound_english.dat_ in it

3.2 Far Cry 4\data_win32\renameback.bat has

move sound_english.dat_ sound_english.dat in it

4) Now its time for some action. Run rename.bat, hit Play button in UPlay, when synchronization dialog appears, run renameback.bat. If you fast enough - game will start. If you don't - it will most likely fail. Try again or don't play FPS games if you can't click things this fast.

5) Generally, game will start with english text and sound, but you might need to go an extra mile and locate \Documents\My Games\Far Cry 4\GamerProfile.xml. Open with notepad, search for " russian " ( or whatever the language you have by default and wish to change ) and replace those with " english " ( it must be two entries for text and sound ).

6) ??????

7) PROFIT NOT SO OBVIOUS

What we did? ' hiding ' english files from UPLAY launcher for the tiny moment of filecheck will allow game to start, but you need to rename files back, till the actual start of the game. That's where those .bats come into play.

P.S.: if you can't get this thing working, simply delete/rename sound_english.dat and game will start normally so you can suffer blin. You can also write some .bat's to run those .bat's, but, well, it's a whole other story (: Add me if you still have questions and glhf.

As long as I found out, I need to replace these:

sound_russian.dat / .fat in root folder
fcc_main_russian.dat / .fat in data_win32\worlds\fcc_main
multicommon_russian.dat / .fat в data_win32\worlds\multicommon

I'll get those tomorrow and update~

solution found yet?

[AKELLA]

Managed to find

sound_english.dat / .fat
fcc_main_english.dat / .fat
multicommon_english.dat / .fat

Simply adding those files to game folder prevents game from starting at all. Deleting original files and adding these ones - same problem. Replacing original files with another ones by changing file names - cutscenes and text still russian, BUT voice acting in-game - localized just fine. I'll look further into it.

[Mr.Awesome]

I took those files and replaced them with the russian ones. Now the game audio is in my language but the menu and all text still russian

same problem, the text is a storm

Made some research, might be a solution today. Stay tuned for update.

I sincerely hope you'll find the solution and post it here, I don't want to play with sub-par Russian localization after paying 38 dollars for the game.

i have a Russian key too.. hope we can find a solution :)

[76561198125920753]

i put the sound files in "german" in the folder where was a russian but no one brings.. i changing file names from "german to russian" but no change.. grrr... :D Want to play... i paied 33€ for my game at GK4.me (sorry for the name of Keystore)..

So here is a quick idea of what i found out: to get english text working, you need to add

fcc_main_english.dat / .fat
multicommon_english.dat / .fat

to the russian ones you alredy have and most importantly you have to replace

sound_russian.dat / .fat

with

sound_english.dat / .fat.

That's pretty much it but the main problem here - UPLAY just won't let you start the game with this state of things (will ask you for an activation key, or simply do nothing. You can try, tho). Also in russian version of the game we don't have that language selection option fancy people have in world-wide one. It is there somewhere, but blocked out of the game. So what's left to figure out - how to make things working with those file names changed. So, not glad to say, still no solution. Working on.

Are you working for a solution? Or you give up? I like your hard working :)
