Fixing gamefonts_pc errors for localized MW2
============================================

In certain cases the Modern Warfare 2 executable might
crash with one of the following two errors on launch:

----------------------------------
Couldn't load image 'gamefonts_pc'
----------------------------------
(if no 'english' files exist)

OR

----------------------------------------------
Couldn't load image 'specialty_new_nonenglish'
----------------------------------------------
(if actual 'english' version exists)

This can be fixed by going to the main/ directory in MW2,
and renaming all 'localized_russian_iw01.iwd' files (or
'french', or whatever language you use) to 'english'.

For instance, my main/ folder (%steam%\steamapps\common\
call of duty modern warfare 2\main) contained the following
files originally:

--------------------------
localized_russian_iw00.iwd
localized_russian_iw01.iwd
...
localized_russian_iw08.iwd
--------------------------

Renaming them to be named like this fixed the error:

--------------------------
localized_english_iw00.iwd
localized_english_iw01.iwd
...
localized_english_iw08.iwd
--------------------------

Hope this helps!
