I am just about to bust a nut after 3 hours trying to install from the retail cd and it don't work. I can login but everything is in Korean, I can go to the character creation screen but I want to play in english.
Well at first it was telling me I had the european version so I switched the language settings in the laucher to north america and since then everything is in Korean..
I am thinking of trying it in Korean at this point..
Game launching in Korean?
A couple of possible fixes.
- (1) Short & Easy fix:
1. Right-click on Aion in your Launcher game list
2. Select Properties
3. Change/update language
- (2) Long & Guaranteed fix:
You are running a North American client from Europe and may need to reinstall the European client. Odds are you've been playing Aion since way back in the beginning. When you re-install, the version that gets installed is determined by your OS locale settings and Launcher Options. It will take a while, but you will need to remove Aion completely from the Launcher and from your PC and start from square one with the installation. If you have a decent speed internet, this shouldn't take all too long unless you do it during prime time.
- (3) Remove English files fix:
1. Delete the language files in your installation folder AionL10N
2. Make sure your Launcher's regional settings are correct
3. Make sure that your Aion language settings in the Launcher are correct
4. Restart the Launcher completely and let it patch the correct language files (approx. 300~800 MB).
- (4) Re-install only in Launcher fix:
1. Remove Aion from your launcher by right-clicking and choosing "Uninstall". Do not remove your game files - only remove it from the Launcher.
2. Restart the Launcher.
3. Right-click on Aion (should now be displayed as "Not installed") and choose "Install".
4. Customize the installation so that all language settings are correct and point it to your Aion game folder from the previous installation.
5. The Launcher will now try to patch any missing language files and hopefully resolve your issue (approx. 300~800 MB).
AIOn on a CD? O.o I always thought its gonna be on a DVD lol
hmm i have the euro preorder version. But i had the US client installed (can play with US client on EU server) and after the launcher downloaded a patch and updated the version of the game, all in sudden my game was also in korean -.- Tried out a lot but couldnt change it into english or german ( downloaded the language packs). So i changed the AION main folder name to AionEU, and the game started to patch again, and then suddenly i was able to play in english,german and french lol

Wierd, I am assuming you didnt buy from a Korean outlet
Check the Tech support forums, maybe others have had similar issues and an answer is posted.
I also remember that there is a language preference when setting up your NCsoft account, perhaps make sure its also set correctly
Torrential: DAOC (Pendragon)
Awned: World of Warcraft (Lothar)
Torren: Warhammer Online (Praag)
