This has been fixed by check-in 0004935. There is a new CVAR tdm_lang, which is free of restrictions. The GUI changes this variable, and triggers a call into the SDK ("languageChanged"). This call in turn issues a setLanguage() on the new I18N object.

This will reload the system language dictionary with both the strings from the requested language, as well as FM specific strings (see bug 0002797). The GUI is then immidiately reloaded to reflect the change.

The same happens upon restart of TDM/D3.

In addition, when the language "polish" is choosen, "sys_lang" is set to English, which prevents D3 from trying to load non-existing fonts (the polish fonts would be just a needless copy of the general western font).
