Only by asking some really nice person to zip up the entire english directory and mailing it to you...

Of coarse that is possible if someone could send you the the content of the ...\ctp2_gamedata\english\gamedata\ directory. Afterwards you got it there are two possibilities how you can install them. On the one hand you could coppy the English versions of the files over the German ones in your ...\ctp2_gamedata\german\gamedata\ directory. The disadvantage is that you will loose the German ones. Therefore I would create a ...\ctp2_gamedata\english\gamedata\ directory and put the english versions of that files into that directory. Than I would copy the graphics\, sounds\ and uidata\ directories with all subderectories from the german\ directory to the english\ directory. At final I would open the civpath.txt in your ...\ctp2_program\ctp\ folder and replace the entry "german" there by "english". That should be all unfortunatly, I have only english files from the mods, not the original ones.

Part one - text files

Sorry about the messy files, I was chopping them around to get two zips of less than 200kb to attach here.

These are english/gamedata files. I would suggest making a backup folder called German inside german/gamedata, put the german files in it then unzip these into the gamedata directory, which then becomes english

Part 2 - Great Library. I had to cut out some of the historical stuff to make it fit, but only about 5 entries, and none of the good ones
