GPL: German Version => US Version

by MeatWate » Tue, 10 Nov 1998 04:00:00

Some weeks ago I stated that the German version of GPL was well done. How
blind was I? I swear I'll never buy a "localized" game again.
Would I be able to "swap" the german version for a US version (via Sierra or
so)? Or would it be enough if someone mailed me the US gpl.exe (worked with
some other games in the past)?

I don't know if it'll work, but if you like I'll send you the UK
executable by Email.

Thank you, but I only just got the US .exe. Dunno if it works, though.

Just wanted to say that my plan worked. By putting the US-version gpl.exe in
my gpl directory, I now have a flawless US version of the game. Where I got
the gpl.exe from? Hmmmm....can't remeber anymore...

What's the problem?
Instead of buying a German Version in the shops, I ordered a US
version, but got UK.
