    Hi, I only find this thread directly related to this subject, but it doesn't have any reply so...

    Anyway, the problem:
    - The Launcher on my PCs always open in Portuguese.
    - Yes, I already verify this and the value there are "English (United States)", still the launcher opens in PT.
    - The only way to be in EN is if I manually delete and/or rename the language files in the game folder at [...\BeamNG.drive\locales].
    - Files, "pt_BR.json" and "pt_PT.json".
    - I'm using the Steam version of the game, but it behaves exactly the same if I use the one downloaded from Humble Bundle.

    Is there any possibility to solve this minor annoyance, like the Launcher use the language defined in Steam or by some ".ini" file?

    BTW, this is my fist post in the forums I hope I'm not doing anything the wrong way.

    Last but not the least Thanks for this AWESOME GAME! ;)

    Hello,

    the language setting used is the one highlighted.

    you need to change that one to affect the launcher and game (game will use Steam local if launched through Steam)

    Hi @thomatoes50 like I say in my original post I already have those settings in "English (United States)", please see this screen so you can see exactly what I mean.

    Hi again @thomatoes50 that do the trick... o_O ...but that's a very bad way (just for not saying other badder words, lol) for the Launcher to choose the language don't you think? :D
