I am currently making a map where I want to change the CIS team's name to "Sith Empire". I tried adding level/nh1(level name)/cis and level/nh1/rep where "cis" is "SITH EMPRIE" and "rep" is "GALACTIC REPUBLIC". There is a local team which I've named "FA'ATHRA'S GANG" under "locals" in the localization tool. In the mission .lua I changed the CIS team name to "Sith Empire" and the Republic name to "Galactic Republic", but when I start a game all teams are named "FA'ATHRA'S GANG" and they're all the local team color yellow.
Can anyone tell me what I'm not doing right and how I can name the two major teams what I want them to be called?
So, for the teams, you need to do it via the Localization tool. Open it up and create a scope called 'common'. Under that one, create a scope called 'sides', and under that, create two scopes called 'cis' and 'rep'. Under each of those, create a Key called 'name'.
In those keys, you should be able to define a new name for your sides.
Thanks. The side's names work now.
