For those getting the "You need an authorized language pack" error

Open up this file in your documents folder with notepad
e.g
User\My Documents\Starcraft II\Variables.txt

Change the two locale variables to the appropriate client language e.g zhTW or enSG or enUS depending on which client you are using, Taiwan, SEA or NA.

Code:
localeidassets=zhTW
localeiddata=zhTW
Alternatively instead of putting "zhTW" put "????" and it will automatically detect which client u are using and use the appropriate language pack, really useful if u are using 2 clients so you don't have to keep switching.

omg. TY FOR the ???? cause its really irritating to change server

I got the same 15-60 minute popup, except when I clicked the left option and then clicked on the next popup, the window closes and the patching stops.

I have plenty of disk space, what could be the problem?

EDIT: Fixed the problem by reinstalling.

This is not common but for those of you who see this particular error message.

Click the image to open in full size.

The official custom support has been unable to help so far but here is a work around method.

Work around method
(This assumes your current SC2 NA/SEA/EU client works perfectly.)

Step 1: Copy your whole working SC2 directory somewhere else, so you always have the original as a back up that works perfectly.

Step 2:
With the new directory you created, try using the relocaliser here and applying the relocaiser to it

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/view...opic_id=357860

A few people with this problem have solved it this way as the "work around" method for now so its confirmed and tested.

Thanks nirvAnA and sc2sea store for this great service, great customer support and easy to follow guide 10/10

Also, to fix the language pack issue on your mac without the use of bootcamp, simply bring up a new finder window and go to:

(your username)>Library>Application Support>Blizzard>Starcraft II>Variables.txt

From there you can change these to:

localeidassets=zhTW
localeiddata=zhTW

or

localeidassets=????
localeiddata=????

(i did the question marks)
Make sure you save the file.

Hopefully this will help some people, as it worked for my mac. If you have trouble feel free to pm me.

thanks again!

Problem:
"Every time I play a game on SEA/NA now the game just drops as soon as I finish loading and says tie. I can play games on KR perfectly but yeah not SEA/NA, do you have any ideas for solutions?"

I can also make a custom game with just me in it and play it on SEA/NA but nobody else otherwise it just drops.

Solution:
Turns out it was a problem with the r1ch relocaliser. for reference if anyone asks here's the solution

Important:

For some reason Blizzard decided to redirect you to the KR client download after activating the key. You should not download the KR client but the TW client instead.

Windows direct link:
http://dist.blizzard.com.edgesuite.n...Setup-zhTW.exe

Mac direct link:
http://dist.blizzard.com.edgesuite.n...Setup-zhTW.zip

OP has been updated with new UI screenshots as well. Thanks to byrnsy for some!
