  • Videogame localization using language packs
    Patent number: 7930167
    Abstract: A code library, or “language interface pack” library, is provided that can be integrated into a video game to detect new localizations of the video game dynamically, and to locate and load the most appropriate localized resources depending on user preferences and available localized game content. If no localized content is available in the preferred language, a fallback system ensures that the game always receives the location of existing game content in another language.
