Hey does anyone know how to make Win7 able to read korean while in a game? Ive searched the forums but the threads are either too old or have no relevance.

I always read a bunch of "*&*&$%" instead of 한글 while in the game but not during a bnet channel or the join game list.

you need to have your entire computer in the korean regions&settings. which means all the text in your computer will be in korean too. its bullshit.

If you're using English Windows, the only thing changed is the time format, which you can easily fix it through 'additional settings'.

I did make a mistake early on though using the Korean language pack, oh boy that was a disaster.

not quite true.. Mine is all in english, but in-game able to recognise korean wordings..

Go under <Regional and Language> in control panel, <Adminstrative> tab, language for non-unicode programme.. May need to restart computer..

Next time, PLEASE use the search function

No. This only fixes it in channels, and allows you to type it in game. You still can't read it in game.

I have the same problem.

Yeah, my regional setting is in Canada-English and I have the East Asian language thing enabled so I can read and type Korean for everything but it doesn't work on b.net. I never really cared because I don't talk much on b.net or iccup though.

I have the same problem.

You have to set the default language for non-Unicode programs to be 'Korean' in the Advanced tab of the same control panel area.... that'll get it to show up in-game, as well.

No, it won't. That gets it to show up in channel. I said that already, did you read what I quoted?

To be honest, no. But that's because I had the same exact problem as you and I doing what I said fixed it.

So maybe you you didn't do it right / fail at life / aren't the chosen one.

I haven't tried but NTLEA (NT Locale Emulator Advance) might work though

You can download it here: [url blocked]

Just unpack it, change settings to Korean, and check the box to add it to your shortcut menu. Then right click > execute starcraft with NTLEA
