On the Chinese directory, can not load the language file.

I'll look into it but I can't really reproduce this. Whenever I copy/paste chines characters and make a path, it looks the same, but then ce also works fine on it. It only appears on real chinese systems

Could you post the full path so i can copy paste that? If possibly, as a raw byte array as well

If you wanted to waste 1000 years of your life setting it up im sure you could replicate it on VMWare.

in function GetCEdir:string;
CheatEngineDir:=ExtractFilePath(application.ExeName);
ExtractFilePath Can not handle Chinese characters.
I think CheatEngineDir should be the UnicodeString and should not be is AnsiString

The thing is that language.ini is found which also uses CheatEngineDir

The problem is still there, still can not load the Chinese language file, if the CE in the Chinese Directory.
Find the problem, the problem lies in the following piece of code, this is a track with OD code. [EBP-44] is the program's executable file path is the unicode character, [EBP-48] is an array subscript, this code is the unicode character Ascii character turn is the Chinese character error occurs . (A Chinese character is two bytes, when the switch will turn it into three bytes do not know what turned into a mess).

I have no idea where that breakpoint is and if it's one of the first tries where it tries to figure out a valid encoding.

But can you post a screenshot of that new version with filemon ? Does it still say name invalid for the queryopen of the .po files

This is the new version of screenshot.
The new version fixes only the second error.The first error is not repaired.

Can you give me the debuge symbols of new version?

This exe was build without debug symbols

But the sourcecode for this part is here:
http://code.google.com/p/cheat-engine/source/browse/trunk/Cheat%20Engine/cetranslator.pas

But let's see, you didn't include the result header part, but I guess that the first queryopen for cheatengine-x86_64.po was a success
That will cause GetLocaleFileName() to return the string to that file
That returns to the caller : FindLocaleFileName(), which takes the result, sees it's not '', and thus exits the function with that result.
Returning to the caller: doTranslation()

Which then passes that string to Translations.TranslateResourceStrings() in the lcl translations.pas file (not a ce sourcecode file)

TranslateResourceStrings does a FileExistsUTF8() which fails. (If it did FileExists it would succeed)

So, I need to convert the current string, to the UTF8 format that TranslateResourceStrings probably needs

I'll do some tests and upload a test version

redownload http://cheatengine.org/temp/cheatengine-i386.rar
with some luck it should popup a message saying which method of conversion was a success. (probably method 2, SysToUtf8)

With the above version, can not be resolved. Part of the UI into Chinese.

Corred method=2
