Pes 6 Language Pack
A language pack for Pro Evolution Soccer 6 (PES 6) consists of specific data files that contain in-game text and commentary audio. Because the game was released with region-specific discs (e.g., European versions having English, French, and German, while South American versions had Spanish and Portuguese), users often need to manually add or swap these files to change their language experience. 1. Understanding Language Files
PES 6 uses .afs container files located in the dat folder of your installation directory. The primary files to look for are: e_text.afs: English text (menus, team names). e_sound.afs: English commentary and audio.
Prefixes: The first letter indicates the language (e.g., s for Spanish, f for French, g for German, i for Italian). 2. Basic Language Switching (Built-in)
If your version of the game already includes multiple languages, you can switch them via the in-game menus: Go to the Title Menu. Access OPTIONS → Display Settings → Language Settings. Select your preferred language from the list. 3. Installing External Language Packs
If your desired language is not available in the menu, you must download a language pack (often found on community forums like Evo-Web) and install it manually: pes 6 language pack
Backup: Always copy your existing dat folder before making changes.
Placement: Copy the new .afs files (e.g., s_text.afs and s_sound.afs) into the dat folder.
Renaming (The "Swap" Method): If the game only recognizes English, you can trick it by renaming your new Spanish files to e_text.afs and e_sound.afs and overwriting the originals.
Kitserver: If you use the Kitserver tool, you can place custom language files in the dat folder within the kitserver directory to avoid modifying core game files. 4. Commentary Packs A language pack for Pro Evolution Soccer 6
Commentary is separate from menu text. Popular community packs often include: Peter Brackley & Trevor Brooking: Default English. Jon Champion & Mark Lawrenson: Common in community patches.
Regional Legends: Various Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese commentators are available as standalone .sound files. 5. Essential Tools for Modders
If you want to create or edit a language pack yourself, you will need:
DKZ Studio: The standard tool for opening and editing .afs files. What this guide covers
GGS (Game Graphic Studio): Used to edit the graphical text elements (like "Press Start" buttons) that are stored as images within the text files.

Where to find them?
Since the game is abandonware, these files are usually hosted on community forums like PES Gaming, Evo-Web, or via the PES 6 Firebird Patch repositories.
How to Install:
- Download the commentary pack (usually a
.raror.zipfile). - Extract the files using WinRAR or 7-Zip.
- You will likely see a folder named
dt_e_sound.afs(this is usually the English commentary file). - Copy and Paste this file into your main PES 6 directory where the other
.afsfiles are located (likedt_00.afs). - The game should automatically detect the sound file.
Troubleshooting Common Errors
Step 2: Back Up Your Current Files
Inside the dat folder, you will see files named e_sound.afs, i_sound.afs, etc. Rename your current file (e.g., change e_sound.afs to e_sound.OLD). This is crucial if you break the game.
