Hello.

I have installed the game on a new machine and the client defaulted to German language, I guess because the OS and all is German. However, when I tried to set the client to English, it did everything as it was supposed to and everything is now in English, except for the categories in the Market Window.

Here is a screenshot:

I can't seem to change that. I tried reinstalling, tried clearing cache etc... It isn't game breaking, just a little annoying.

Hope someone can help me with this.

Thanks.

How exactly did you go about with clearing the cache?

The category names are cached in the client cache and as such, so clearing the cache should have solved that (and that worked fine in a quick test I just did).

What I did:
1. Set the language, do the client restart when it asks for it.
2. Clear the cache using the according button in the "Reset Settings" tab of the game options, and again follow through with the client restart it asks for. Make sure that no other client instance using the same cache folder is open, else the cache clearing will fail due to the directory being in use.
3. log in again and the market groups should now be in the language the client is set to.

Ah it is working now.

If it is any help, the game sort of froze before when I tried to clear the cache. I clicked the 'Yes' button after getting the message about the game needing a restart and then it froze until I killed the process.

I just rebooted the PC and everything is working fine now. Game also restarts normally when clearing the cache.

Thank you for taking the time anyway.
