Language Problems


Hello, I have a game called Outlive for PC a Starcraft clone as you would call it, I prefer RTS or AOE Clone ! The Problem being, Its in Porteguese(I think thats how you spell it) and it is no longer supported as the company shut down. I have the english demo of it, but I cannot change the language in the game, because I cannot understand it! Can somebody help me? Is there a Porteguese to English translator program that translates games??

Unless you want to follow the campaign's storyline (which many reviews said wasn't much), I don't see you would need any English to play this, as I saw little Portuguese (or any text for that matter) in the screenshots that I found On-line. Looks like a fun game and maybe you will learn a little Portuguese from playing it.

That makes absolutely no sense at all. You want to steal copyrighted software and it's okay because there's nobody still working on it?

No, No you misunderstand me. I need an English version not Porteguese! I have the Legitimate copy of it and I complained to Contiuinumm and they simply replied with "Sorry, this game is no longer Supported due to its discontinued state." I am not ripping them off I just want to play a game I really like in English!
