Have you tried a Hex editor? If not then let me know what text you are looking for and I'll see if it's in there.

Oh that would be nice from you.

I search the word "Stadt". It has to be there 2 times.

Coz Fireaxis messed it up and named the size of City and Town both the same word in german.

City = Stadt
Town = Stadt

But it has to be:

City = Stadt
Town = Kleinstadt

Another one is the word for Stock. Its about shares you Own at the beginning of a map.
Fireaxis looked into the dictionary and they choose the first word. "Vieh"
But in german its wrong. So it hast to be: Stock = Aktien

Thx in advance

Umm, I searched str_DEU.STR for Stadt and it is in there 161 times so you may have to do this on your own since I don't read German and can't figure out which one(s) need changing.
