Hi there!

While searching for a better way to play Supreme Commander, I stumbled across a Reddit post mentioning FAF. This project looks incredible—the work here feels very professional!
I tried playing the SupCom campaign in co-op mode with French localization. However, I noticed there were no voices, even though the US version seems to have them.

As an old-school PC gaming enthusiast, I thought, "Maybe the game is looking for French voice files but can’t find them." I experimented by copying voice files from Supreme Commander into FAF’s voices folder and created a "FR" folder alongside the "US" one, but no luck—still silence.
I also checked the SCCA_Coop_E02_strings.lua file in the map folder, hoping to find a string that might point to the issue, but I came up empty-handed.

I’m sure there’s a simple fix, but I’m stumped. I’d love to hear any tips from the devs or community! This could also help with other languages and improve immersion for me and my friends.
I hope this isn’t too long for a first post. Just wanted to say a big hello and thank you for the amazing work on FAF. I can only imagine the effort it took to build this!

Cheers and happy building!

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I can indeed understand what @speed2 is saying. Is there a way to reverse-engineer and decode the original SupCom audio files, then re-encode them to match FA's format?
I have an idea: since the co-op map is in the map folder, we could collect the Lua files that specify the audio file locations. Some of them are in banks like E01_VO.xsb and E01_VO.xwb. There must be software out there to help with this.

I’ll join the Discord channel and am grateful for your kind responses! I hope to keep this updated if any progress is made.
