This mod for Alice: Madness Returns retains the original English voice acting while offering customizable subtitles in multiple languages.

Installation Instructions:

  • Download the Mod: Click the "Files" button on the NexusMods page to download all mod packages.
  • Locate the Game Directory:
    Process for Steam: Open Steam, Go to your Library, Right-click on Alice: Madness Returns, Select Manage, Right-click on Browse Local Files.
  • Extract the Files: 
    Use a file extraction tool like the embedded one with Windows, WinRar or 7-Zip to unpack the downloaded files.
    Extract In-Game Dialogue Patch Tool.zip into <game-directory-folder>\AliceGame
    Extract Movies.zip into <game-directory-folder>\AliceGame\Movies [MAKE SURE TO BACKUP MOVIES FOLDER]
  • Run the Batch File:
    • Double-click the batch (.bat) file to execute it.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions and enter the language corresponding to your preferred subtitles: European Spanish, German, French or  Italian.
  • Change Game Language:
    • You must change the language through Steam properties or Origin/EA Desktop, whichever you use.
Notes:
  • If you want to restore the original files (for in-game dialogues), run this script again or select Verify Integrity of Game Files in the game settings on your launcher.
  • Don't forget to change your language in the game settings.
  • Tested with the latest version available on Steam in the Spanish Language, I'm not sure about EA Desktop or other languages.
  • This mod does not affect map textures that contain translated text, depending on the chosen language.
  • Subtitles are available only in the following default languages that come with the game: European Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese. (Note: Japanese doesn't have dubbing so this mod is not needed in that version, it will be removed in future versions of the mod)

Don't forget to report if a cutscene/memory has wrong audio. I will fix it ASAP!
FAQ:

Q: How does it works?
A: The mod replaces all files containing voices in other languages so that the game cannot read/find them. This ensures that the game always uses the original English voices while displaying subtitles in the chosen language.
For cutscenes and memories, it's a little bit harder because Spicy Horse mixed all the audio tracks inside the Bink files so you have to copy the English track over the dub tracks. For this task, I've made a tool which from a defined map replaces automatically those tracks.

Q:Why replacing Localization folder doesn't work? That way I wouldn't need to replace Cutscenes and Memories, right?
A: Because subtitles are cooked within the audio files.
