With the 1.4 patch for BF2 comes the fifth revision of RingMasTeR's Word.

RingMasTeR's Word are customized localization files for BF2/SF.

What are localization files?

Localization files are the container files for all text information in the game.  These files can be edited to say anything you wish in place of the default text. And in some cases can be modified to show more information than you can see by default.

--Example:   
[img]http://www.consecratedguild.com/images/pics/word/TK.jpg[/img]


Also, orange highlight can be toggled off and on to make text stand out better.

--Example:
[img]http://www.consecratedguild.com/images/pics/word/TK2.jpg[/img]

These files are not scanned by Punkbuster and will not get you kicked for modified content.  Only you can see these changes as they are completely client side.

There is a [url=http://forums.fevergaming.com/showthread.php?t=43939]guide[/url] showing how to do these edits, created by [url=http://forums.fevergaming.com/showthread.php?t=43939]SaladFork[/url], still floating around. The guide says 1.3 but the tutorial's contents still 100% apply to 1.4. So give it a read if you want to do this for yourself.  If you are somewhat code savy to begin with, you can probably just look at the .utxt file and figure it out, it's not that hard. Special thanks go to SaladFork for the work on his easy to follow tutorial. Look for his 1.4 tutorial and files soon as well!

In addition to the usual compliment of files, I have released a "Lite" and a "Hi-Lite" version.

This "Lite" version contains all of the useful informational messages for teampoints and teamkills everyone likes, minus the weapon/vehicle changes and misc. edits.
This is to cater to those who prefer the original weapon names and formats. They are very similar to Saladfork's files in this regard, yet contain some of my original features.

The "Hi-Lite" version is the same as the "Lite", except the original killmessages are highlighted in orange.

Be sure to read the installation notes as they have changed.
Each file contains a copy of the changelogs below.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Installation:

BACKUP!!!!

***Back up your Localization folder ( C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Localization\English )
by copying it into a directory *OTHER* than the default directory, like "my documents" or your "desktop".

If you forget and need to restore your files to the default 1.4 version, use the following links:


[url=http://www.consecratedguild.com/consecrated/Downloads/details/id=5.html]Battlefield 2 Locilzation Files 1.4 Backup[/url]  


[url=http://www.consecratedguild.com/consecrated/Downloads/details/id=6.html]Special Forces Locilzation Files 1.4 Backup[/url] 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INSTALL:

Use [url=http://www.winzip.com/]Winzip[/url] or your favorite compression utility to unzip the file into your Battlefield 2 directory - C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\

Yes to Overwrite all. 

*In Winzip, Be sure Use Folder names is checked "on"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Be aware that BF2 reads the entire \English\ directory for .utxt files.
If you put ANYTHING else in there, including a backup of old .utxt files (even  inside another folder),
BF2 will crash and give you an error.
Do not leave the readme.txt, gnu.txt or changelog.txt in the \Localization\ or \English\ folder.

--Known Issues:

-Player names that contain  $ symbol(s) will not always display correctly with these files.  The name will display without the $ symbol(s) instead. This has to do with the color codes in the killmessages. No known fix at this time.

-Some of the modified weapon names will appear in your BFHQ  as they do in the file and will look funky...(BFHQ weapon description screen only)
ex.   
PP-19 Bizon §C1001'SMG'§C1001

   
This effects nothing so dont worry.

lol,  that would be funny... but it's easy to do yourself, you can change the messages to what you want them to say. I've seen alot of people do some realy original and funny stuff with these files.  That's what makes them so great imo.  Have a crack at it!

Yes.

replace

with

Code:

HUD_CHAT_YOUGOTAKILLSCORE    §3You killed §c1001#PLAYERNAME#§c1001 (§C1001+2§C1001 bonus)§3 
Be sure not to disturb the position of the little arrows on each side of the message.  Only use this in your localization files.

A quick question.  Is there a code to put the color in yellow instead of orange? Thanks.
