Title: Having trouble with Character Name Editing..
Post by: Nagafen on July 26, 2008, 06:16:18 am
Hey. I just wondered.. do I have to edit Character names in every file, i.e. not just ATTACK.OUT, but also EVENT.OUT, for an example? Because, I managed to change Ramza's name to "Oscar" but I can't seem to get the other characters names to change in the Prologue. Does this mean Ihave to eit their guest versions AND their playable/Enemy (I'm looking at you Gaff..) forms?

Thanks. More questions, most likely coming soon...

You have to edit all versions of the unit if you want the effect to take place during all the game. We don't know ifeven all files are used, or when they are used.

But for the sake of making sure, you should edit them all.

yeah the patcher lets you do that, and you can name them too... but most of the item slots are full... get rid of something crappy...

ya you can, you could edit the attack animations of the weapons too but that would mean youd change any other weapon with the same gfx. still you can assign specific gfx to each weapon.
