Title: How to change class names?
Post by: Willkilla on February 05, 2022, 04:25:58 PM
I've been busy importing some BFX characters into my modded map, however I can't locate where the ODF is to change the name of the class, so they are appearing with numbers. Any pointers where to update that file?

Here's the beta of the map if you would like to try it out

Your mod's core.lvl file will contain strings for you to use in your mod.
If you run the 'EditLocalize.bat' file you'll see a tree structure for the strings.
For units, you are interested in the 'entity' node.
For weapons, you will be interested in the 'weapons' node.

It's not entirely straight forward as to how to name the string correctly, but if you study the stock sides you'll be able to figure it out.
