      Everytime I launch FAF, my FA v1.6.6 (Steam) is turned to English language, while it was initialy in my native language.

      The problem :
      FAF has changed my game.prefs for an incorrect language !
      Open AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Game.prefs and take a look at :

      • the field language = 'us',
      • the field selectedlanguage = 'us',

      while these should be set on my country code...

      Also, FAF is ignoring where to access the good old localised audio folder and files :

      • When I set it to some language, the Tutos won't play given they're in english because the engine is "lost in translation"..
      • FAF is set to english by default and doesn't set for us the proper localisation.

      Last but not least :
      I noticed that the visual parts of the speeches aka videos were hugely accelerated with no audio. (like 5 times faster)
      IMHO this means the XACT Audio engine is one of the main cause of FA's slowdowns...

        More about this issue :

        I've noticed by verifying "AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Game.prefs" that the voice volume was OFF, while it was at MAX in the Options window in-game :

        options = {
            (...)
            vo_volume = 0,
            (...)
        },
        

        The localized voices are still muted in spite of my attempts to :

        • set the volume to the MAX from the Options window in-game.
        • click on [Apply].
        • click on [OK].

        I've even thought I had to quit the game and launch it again after this change, to no avail.

        I've openned game.prefs with NP++ and noticed the value was still vo_volume = 0,.
        So I've changed it for vo_volume = 100,, but it's had no effect at all.

        FA v1.6.6 's localized voices are definitely like "broken" since I installed FAF, even by running the game without FAF.

        Help will be much appreciated.
