  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Upload/ Update your mod, try your best to put Chinese name on it. What I usually do is to rename it on the webpage instead of the in-game mod manager
  2. Try to download it from in-game mod manager
  3. Nothing will be downloaded

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?

Users and modders expect a multi-lingual friendly environment, especially those languages explicitly supported from the store page.

:point_down: ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.

:arrow_forward: GAME FILES (SAVE / RECORDING)

:point_down: Attach a SAVE GAME (.aoe2spgame) or GAME RECORDING (.aoe2record) of the match where you encountered the issue. Link it below if using an external file service.

Oh and if I changed the name, you still won’t be able to download it, you have to delete the previous mod folder. This is a catastrophe
