New Patch February 7, 2021


Installation Instructions
Download  languagedata_jp.zip
Extract files to "GameOn\BlackDesert_live" folder (or whichever folder your game is installed to; e.g. it should be "GameOn\BlackDesert_live\prestringtable\font\pearl.ttf").
Each time before starting the game, follow these simple steps:
  1. You might want to backup your Loc file ("GameOn\BlackDesert_live\ads\languagedata_jp.loc"), before patching (this step is not required, but advised), if you haven't already.
  2. Start BDO JP launcher/patcher and login (including 2FA, if you've set it). Wait extra second or few after it, depending on your latency and PC (proceed to step 3 after your CPU usage spike ends).
  3. Move or copy "languagedata_jp.loc" from "_Adv" folder to "ads" folder, replacing the file. I'd advise to copy, to keep an extra copy of patch, just in case, unless you need those few MB of space.
  4. Start Black Desert JP.
  5. After closing the game / before the next start of BDO JP launcher/patcher (you can do it immediately after, or whenever prior to the next start, doesn't matter):
    1. If you have moved the file in step 3 - move "languagedata_jp.loc" from "ads" folder to "_Adv".
    2. If you have backed-up Loc file in step 1 - move or copy it to "ads" folder, replacing the file.
If you're unhappy with the included font - simply delete it (prestringtable\font\pearl.ttf) to use the default font.
