Re: Pirates and Nobles won't download (in Dutch)

I've had the same problem as described above. For me the workaround described by Mai worked.

I already installed the game twice today, nearly 12GB download in total. So I didn't uninstall and started at step 3. I changed language, installed P&N again, and switched language back. And it worked.

And yes, I also use the Dutch version of the game.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for letting us know it worked, and very good point, @atreya33, if the game is already installed there's no need to install it again. I'll add that to the steps, XP for you! 🙂

Welcome to the community! :eahigh_file:

@EA_Mai and the rest i was constantly wondering why it wouldnt download :eahigh_file: Damn the dutch version to be fair. Thnx for asking and replying everyone or i might have pulled my hair out by frustration. 😞

Thanks for this solution. I was having the same problem with the Dutch version. And better yet, I get to play my game in English too - which I wanted anyway. Now I just need to transfer my old saves so I can continue with the more advanced kingdom aspirations 🙂

The language thing worked for me! Thank u.

This issue occurred with me as well. It's quite maddening. I even reinstalled Origin at some point which caused me to have to install all of my sims 4 content again (which is quite a lot) I'm currently trying this language trick, hoping that will fix it.

Also, worth mentioning, my origin client is in Dutch settings but I always prefer to play my games in English, so when asked in what language I wanted to install the base game I selected English. Yet, when I started the game after installation to see if it had worked, I noticed it had installed in Dutch anyway somehow. Is this a fault of this particular game, or am I better served to change my origin client to English as well to prevent this mishap in the future?

Thank you so much, changing the language helped. I used to play Pirates and Nobles on my old laptop on DVD, but now I have a gaming laptop and I can't put any DVD's in it. It wouldn't download on origins and it's been like a year, so thank you so much. I actually play all my games in English except for the Sims because I started playing that when I was just a kid. So it's good to finally switch to English. Tyyyy

(Translation) 

Hey, I'm having the same problem. My English is not very good so I don't understand how to solve it. Would you like to help me? I only see English among the languages ​​that I can choose.

Are you trying to download the game on Origin or the EA App? Just wondering so we give you the right information. 

I am dowwloading from the ea app.( i have windows 10)

@raverin9483 , currently there are problems switching languages in the EA App. If you check the EA App forums, they should have instructions on how to switch languages. 

I am oke with the app being in English, but playing sims middielval in english is very hard. I hope they add dutch very soon. Thank you!

Unforturnately the sims medieval doesn't seem to be available on the EA App.

I tried installing from the EA app and also only have the option to install in English.

I know how to install games in Dutch because I did so for sims 3 and 4.

My work around was to install origin again and then use origin to change my game to Dutch

I really hope the Dutch version becomes available to download without the need of the work around mention in this thread

@raverin9483Jammer genoeg heb ik hetzelfde probleem. In de EA app kan je alleen engels kiezen als taal voor de sims middeleeuwen.

Ik heb speciaal voor sims middeleeuwen origin opnieuw geinstalleerd. Op dit moment is dat nog mogelijk maar ik weet niet meer voor hoe lang.

In origin is het nog mogelijk om de taal te wijzigen.
