+For German version:
+
+call the batch file GERMAN.BAT.  This will copy the appropriate conquer.h and
+credits.txt files where they need to be, and set the proper network aliases
+for drives S: and T:.  It also deletes all the object modules, and ends by
+briefing up DEFINES.H.  You should comment out //#define ENGLISH and //#define
+FRENCH, and un-comment #define GERMAN.  Also, change the release flag to make
+sure that #define RELEASE_VERSION is the only version being made, and make
+sure that //#define DONGLE is commented out.
+
+Make sure that the german maps and such are all up to date, by copying the
+maps to the directory GERMAPS, and then building the maps by calling
+MAKEGER.BAT EXPAND2.MIX and MAKEGER GENERAL.MIX.  If GENERAL changes, then
+you also have to rebuild v:\projects\c&c0\cstrike2\cdger\cd4\main.mix.  If
+EXPAND2.MIX changes, you have to copy s:t\m\expand2.mix to the patch
+directory, f:\projects\c&c0\setup\aftermth\patch\german\ra200.
+
+After building RA95.EXE and GAME.DAT, also copy them up to the patch
+directory.
+
+The .MIX files that changed are MOVIES1, EXPAND2, SOUNDS, and GENERAL.  There
+may have been others, but that's probably about it.
+
+Note, German version has several different art files, primarily removing
+blood from the infantry/civilians and removing some movies.  Also different
+is PIPS.ANM, with words for HOLD, READY, and PRIMARY.
+
+
+
+For French version:
+
+Follow all the above steps, but substitute FRENCH.BAT and MAKEFRE.BAT.  The
+final destination directory is CDFRE instead of CDGER, of course, and the
+patch directory is FRENCH instead of GERMAN, again of course.
+
+If MAKEFRE locks up processing sound files, use MAKER instead
+of MAKE.
+
+Note, French version uses most of the same art files.  Different
+is PIPS.ANM, with words for HOLD, READY, and PRIMARY.  Also different are all
+the hi-res version's sidebar icons.  German has its own icons as well.
