Change the language from germany to english on Dragon Age: Origins
I downloaded the game Dragon Age Origins and the game is in german language but i want to change to english language, how do I do this?
Forum Discussion
This does not work at all for the downloaded version.
The Origin download lacks all of the language files but german.
I believe the only way to get this fixed is to contact EA Support to get the language changed?
Even with codes from the UK retail DVD I can only choose German as only language.
Tried to install the en-us language file from DVD but ended up with a corrupted installation after Origin tried to "repair" the game.
The Origin client is set to english as all my other Origin games are.
DA: O seems to be the only game with this strange issue.
Actually I'm awaiting an answer from EA support.

I managed to fix this issue. Go to where you installed Dragon Age (Program Files (x86)\Dragon Age) and click on the bin_ship folder. You SHOULD see a file called DAOriginsConfig. Run it, then click on the Video tab. The last two dropdown options are Language settings.
Just select 'Englisch' for both, click on the 'Dragon Age: Origins' tab on the top and select the first option (Einstellungen speichern) to save your settings. Then exit. It should be English once you reload.
This looks good on the first sight, but the only two options to chosse from are de-de and Deutsch which is the same in the end.
Problem is I lack the language files usually installed under \Origin Games\Dragon Age Origins\packages\core\audio\vo.
I have the files on the DVDs and patchfiles, but how to get them installed so the Origin install will accept them?
Spoke to EA-Germany support in between: The support guy told me he has no option for the language selection on his sid, even after consulting an "expert". He suggested a complete uninstall followed by a ccleaner run and a fresh install.
Will try this later because my bandwith is limited and a fresh install will take allmost an overnight download.
Will post again if there is any change, but I doubt there will be any choice from German during the install...

Thanks SomeLameSilver. It helped me! In my case I had two languages 'en' and 'ru'. And I just selected 'en' .
This worked, thanks a bunch!
