I installed Dino Crisis and Alice Madness Returns with a French setup, either on Steam Deck under SteamOS or PC under Windows (ISO FR). Once it's finished, I launch a game, I see that the game is in English, not in French. I tried adding LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 %command% to "arguments in Lutris but that doesn't change anything. the same for Alice

I know that the games support different languages ​​like French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish and there are ways to change a language with an .ini file for Steam or .info for Gog but I don't know how to change a language with files with these two games

I can confirm that the Alice game is indeed in French if I put "French" in the steam properties. At least now I can play on Alice. Thanks for your help

Apparently, Dino Crisis ( GOG version ) has different setups for each language instead of having a single setup for all languages. That's why it doesn't work with the configurations (maybe?)
