Title: Changing Nickname for SWBF
Post by: Shazam on December 09, 2012, 07:53:04 AM
I was asked by a couple people yesterday if it was possible to change your nickname on SWBF without making a new profile (or at least keeping your profile stats the same)

My question: will a nick changer work for Tunngle and GR? I have Scarecrows Dual Nickchanger, and it doesn't change my nick. What about Battlebelks Nickchanger?

Or is there any other way to do this?

BB's works on tunngle.  I have not verified GR.

Battlebelk's nick changer works for both GR and Tunngle. I tested it. :)

Edit: Hmm, it broke the file...
Maybe I hex edited it last time, cause it worked then
And then you can save the file as the same date it was! Battlefront will never tell the difference
-Sorry for the confusion...

If you don't want to download anything, just edit the profile in
GameData/SaveGames/(yourprofilename).profile
with notepad, select all of the (yourprofilename) line, and start typing a new name, it can be pretty long (last time I checked, there was a 20 digit limit)
But if you are a newby, "Don't Try This At Home..."

Edit: This is what mine looks like
蝖 r c c o m m a n d o t a c                    C   D¸ 9   .  ,  E  F   R ;   <   =   >   !  K   L"       -            ?   @   A   B   C   D   W   X   2        --yadayadayada--
My name is "rccommandotac" so thats where I would edit.
Will that actually work without breaking the file? I think it would be safer to hex-edit the change to .profile rather than edit with notepad.

@ Phobos,
I have tested every method (including hexediting) to edit these file, but it was always broken.

@Marty,
Glad to hear that =)

So weird, I got it to work once... I really wish I could figure out how I did.
It's probably more work than just download NickChanger anyways.
Does anyone know how BattleBelk and those other people, make the Trainners and Lua editing EXEs?

Its still a "top"-secret for me. I have no idea...

Yeah, it gets even weirder with SWBF2, I REALLY wish I could remember what I did now...
Hex editing breaks it on SWBF1 and 2...
