There have been a number of patches to TF2, since this resource was last updated

Some of the captions will not work due to an unknown reason. There seems to be a lack of effort from Valve to maintain/update the closecaptions for TF2.

Welcome to TF2 Closed Caption project

The aim here is to bring the sweet goodness of closed captions to one of Valves' games. I am talking about Team Fortress 2, of course! Ever since I played the Left 4 Dead series I thought closed captions are an amazing future. Nevertheless, thanks to the Source Engine we can simple add them in.

Contribution

You are very welcome to help bring complete closed captions to Team Fortress 2. Just fork the project and pull your changes. Remember to have just the closecaption_[language].txt and closecaption_[language].dat in your master branch.

It is adviseable, to do all development on a seperate branch and then merge into master. This way your master branch can always be updated. While you are working on your files.

Important note: make sure txt files are encoded using utf-16le
