Here ya go Ming...

Use this link to get to the RoF forums: http://www.riseofflight.com/forum/index.php

In the top-right corner will be this box:


... supply your registered email and password. I usually put a tick-mark in the "remember me" box, but I think NeoQB has something wrong with the forum's cookie settings since it doesn't "remember me" at all (I have to log in each visit). Click the large-text button on the bottom right to log in.

This will return you to the main website, but your username should appear in the log in box. Click the Forum link to return to the forum itself:


Now follow the images to get the correct links to change the forum controls (buttons, etc.) to English...

Getting to the User Control Panel:


Select the "Board Preferences" link:


Select "British English" from the drop-down box:


Click "Submit" to apply the change:


Now all the forum controls are in English:

You're very kind, thanks Sandman

Running Internet Explorer 7 and 8, Win7RC right now, was the same on Vista's IE yesterday

I get as far as hitting the forum link and I see this- three main links (which take me round the houses and of course I've hit every single link everywhere 41 times solidly eliminating suspects)



Instead of your four links

Actually that's incorrect, they simply have the forum set to not allow persistent log-ins. Once logged in however, all the correct icons for new posts (and previosly read posts) are there.

Hmmm... It looks like you're not showing up as logged-in to the RoF forums, that's why you're missing some links. I'll go back through it with IE7 and see what happens.

That must be it ... You're not logged in to the RoF forum and thus haven't got the UCP link (and all those other ones).

I got precisely the same screens under IE7 as I did under Firefox.

*Be sure to click the large-text link in the log-in box, lower-right corner under the mouse cursor!

Must be it hmmm... I thought I was logged on after filling in UserID and hitting the large-text link in the login box Sandman... wait let me check

Very good call mate, your tick there made me think, then I noticed on your shot that it's my email address login's after, not my forum handle

You are good sir. He'll have to be watched Smile2

Thanks again you've been a great and never-say-die help Sandman, much appreciated!

Excuse me guys, but this is funny. It's like a star trek movie description "a bunch of non-Russian speaking people boldly go where no man has gone before...on a quest to register on a forum that is meant for owners of a game title that hasn't yet been released outside Russia" screwy banghead dizzy hahaha

I'm sure the website frontpage will have a RU/EN toggle in the next few days to make it easier to register, i can wait it out. Either way i don't expect to learn much about ROF from the forums at this point in time, since i don't speak Russian and the only people who have the game are in Russia.

There will be reviews and demos and what not before there's a tangible amount of English speaking people that can provide substantial information about ROF on the neoqb forums. No need to rush cool

That is correct, this coming Thursday is the magic day for some English language content on the RoF site, as has been noted on the RoF forums and linked to in one of the posts upstream from here.

Regardless ... It is somewhat entertaining (in the 'smash your thumb with a hammer' sort of way) to BabelFish one's way through all the Russian language posts.
