Hi! major, download the 5 language file from Ma Pomme previous thread, Extract with indicated password, open the extracted folder, choose and copie your language file to any place on
C:\**** , rename it to "whole_E.Lng" and overwrite original in the:
C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Colin McRae Rally 2005\Data\String folder .
Play the game in your language without car setup crash's. If after this, you have any crach's, it's due to your computer. have fun sorry for bad english i am french :D

this method works!
 

this is to all who are still asking "is it working?":

i have got the european dvd-edition of CMR05 and after downloading and extracting of the 3 mentioned files and after setting the "novideo-option" (because i love my nero 6.6 :D ) the game is working perfect not with no-cd but with any-cd in my dvd-rom!

before asking you should really read this thread one step after another and you will see that this procedure is working fine with the european dvd version of CMR05 (thats the only version i can tell for 100% sure!)
when you are following the mentioned step exactly you will have a working method to play this game without your original dvd! :eek:

so try it and have fun :D

Thanks MaPomme, the italian lng fix work correctly with my european version of colin 05...

I have a strange bug when i must insert the driver's name... The keyboard on the video have 3 strange letter... I don't know where is the problem... Then when i make the first transmission test with Ford Escort Mk1 when i insert the third gear i can't see the red area... Someone have my bug???

I have correct the nero 6.6 problem with starforce drivers update.. It's very simple, download (http://www.star-force.com/support/sfdrvup.zip), install e reboot... Then the game work correctly...

Hi Akenza, i know the prob with Driver name keybord 3 letters we blink, it's due to the missing POLSKY Fonds in Euro version, i have addet & overwrited the fonds from polish patch on euro version fonts folder, that solve the problem, but Attention this can give some problem's with language we contain carcters so we éèàâ^¨ etc... TO TEST IT MAKE FIRST A ZIP SAVE from your ORIGINAL fonds folder in game directory before overwriting. Have fun, and sorry for my bad english, hope someone anderstand wat i would say. :D
To obtain polish fonds search on Emule "Colin.Mcrae 2005.Polish.fond.for.euro.version.rar"

Thanks dede but i can't find the file...

Abenzka

it works on my german version. but i don't hear the co-driver speech. any idea?

@thebladerunner
 

ich habe mit meiner deutschen version das selbe problem, doch tritt dieser fehler nur im "herausforderung"-menü auf, in der karriere funktioniert es bei mir ohne probleme.

schau mal in dein optionsmenü rein, du kannst da die sprache deines co-piloten wechseln, versuche vielleicht mal das.

i've got the same problem with my german version. but this happens to my only in the callengemode, in the carier-mode there is no problem with the missing commands of the co-driver.

just check your optionsmenu, here you can set the language of your co-driver, maybe just check if everything is set to german.

Sorry Abenzka i have place the file on the mule but forgoth to reload the content of shared files remake the search now you found the file "Colin.Mcrae 2005.Polish.fond.for.euro.version.rar" have fun & change codriver speak in game option menu. :D

Thanks dede, i have download the file. For the codriver speak i have switch the name of folder because in my options i don't found the italian speak.

Italian ? Help please.
 

Hi,
Is possible to find any way to play this game in Italian mode ? Any help is good. Bye and thanks. :)

Kenn das Problem. Du musst einfach im SG-Ordner die "Options"-Datei löschen. Dabei werden aber alle deine freigeschalteten Autos und Strecken gelöscht. Was auch sein kann ist, dass du so ein Unlock-all-Savegame verwendest. Dann musst du das von GameCopyWorld laden (ein von beiden, weiß aber nich mehr welches), mit dem gings dann auch bei wieder "richtigrum". Frohes neues Jahr!!!

In English:
I know the problem. You have to delete the "Options"-File in the SG-Folder, but then all your unlocked cars and stages will be deleted, too. Another possibility is, that your using a Unlock-all-Savegame. Then have have to use one of the two ones of GameCopyWorld (I don't remember which I loaded, so try both), then the mirror-effect is gone. I wish you all a happy new year!!!

In Italiano:

Installa il gioco poi scambia il nome del file Whole_E.Lng con Whole_I.Lng. Questi file sono nella cartella Data/String. Poi vai nella cartella Data/Sounds/CoDriver e scambia il nome della cartella Italian con Nicky e poi nella cartella Data/Sounds/Count scambia il nome del file cd_ita.big con cd_nicky.big. Poi nelle opzione del gioco selezionare Nicky come copilota.

In English:

Install the game then switch the name of Whole_E.Lng with Whole_I.Lng. This file are in the Data/String folder. Then go in the Data/Sounds/CoDriver folder and switch the name of Italian folder with Nicky folder and then in the Data/Sounds/Count folder switch the name of cd_ita.big with cd_nicky.big. Then in the game options choose Nicky as Codriver.

new year new year happy to all's
 

GmY77 If you switch the whole_I.Lng to whole_E.Lng use the I file from ma pomme if not you encouter the car setup crash.
