About this mod

Changes the language of Fallout 76; this is just a batch-file to change the language, launch the game and revert the changes after ending your game session.

Permissions and credits
Fallout76LanguageChanger
A simple way to change your windows region back and forth, allowing Fallout 76 (and with some modification maybe some other GamePass-PC titles) to run in a language of choice.
This is just a batch-file to change the language, launch the game and revert the changes after ending your game session.
You will find the most recent version and a proper readme for this script in my github https://github.com/Limpster/Fallout76LanguageChanger

  • tl;dr
Download "Fallout 76 Language Changer.bat" (right-click and save) and run it. If it doesn't work, read the instructions on the github page for this script https://github.com/Limpster/Fallout76LanguageChanger

  • Information/Background
Got Fallout 76 for Gamepass and I wanted to play it in english, unfortunately there is no setting to change the localization in the game or via a launcher. After some google-fu I always read the same (mostly not working or impractical) solutions/recommendations (changing the whole regional setting for Windows manually which also changes date/time, currency etc., changing the whole system language, changing Gamepass/Store country in your Microsoft account, even using VPN etc.[1], [2], [3]) which sounded a little over the top or wasn't working at all and I couldn't find a simple and easy solution.
This language changer will edit the regional language setting in the Windows registry to a chosen value without altering any formatting (date, currency, etc.), system or input language itself and will revert the language string back to default after your game session has ended. Only the String for "LocaleName" will be changed, all the currency, date/time and formatting settings will remain the same.
Since Fallout 76 (and maybe other Gamepass-PC titles, e.g. Forza 4 seem to have the same "problem") run only in the language set in the regional
language settings of Windows, I thought about making it a hassle-free and easy process without clicking trough the Windows regional settings
and reverting them manually after each session.

You just run the batch file and that's it :)
Steam-Users and BethesdaLauncher users might not need this language changer as they can change the language in their respective launchers as far as I know (since I don't own the Steam/Bethesda Launcher Version, I am not able to help users with these launchers but you can get in touch with me and work on it together)
I hope this little script helps you to enjoy the game in another language (also, I heard that some quest with a poem was translated incorrectly and thus
it's not working propery for some other languages than english)
