Modding Unit Names

[Baiae]

Sorry if this seems like a basic question but I've tried searching through the forums and I can't find an answer.

Basically I just want to change unit names. Specifically I want to rename Dismounted Feudal Knights to Feudal Foot Knights (and so on).

I've made these changes to export_descr_unit:

class heavy
voice_type Heavy
banner faction main_infantry
banner holy crusade

The unit is still showing up under it's old name. What else do I have to do to get it to work?

what you have changed is merely a reference for those reading the files. You need to change the name as found in data\taxt\export_units.txt . Look it up by searching for the dictionary name as found under the dictionary line in edu.
