View Full Version : Questions about editing names
1-Is it possible to prevent a title from being added to a name, when you give a title to someone?
For example:
John Smith becomes Lord Smith when he becomes a governor.But can the name remain as John Smith?
2-There is another thing I have noticed.The commanders of noble units(knights etc.) have "Sir" before their forename.Is there a way to change it?

i'm not sure, i think the game is hard-coded to use the tags when appropiate; so i think you're stuck with "lord" since it replaces a first name, but maybe if you change {"sir"} to {""} it will show up as nothing?

/Forenames & Surnames for constructed names.
//
// titles
["Sir"] {" "}
["Don"] {"Don "}
["Lord"] {"Lord "}
["Amir"] {"Amir "}
["Captain"] {"Captain"}
["Prince"] {"Prince "}
["King"] {"King "}
["Princess"] {"Princess "}
["Emperor"] {"Emperor "}
["Sultan"] {"Sultan "}
Correct Iso,simply leaving the sir translation blank does work, we have done this very thing in NTW Mod as shown in the heading from names txt above, have not tried it for Lord as of yet...LOS
Yes, I've tried that.The problem is, when you do it with lord, the forename goes as well.The name becomes "Smith".
Sir however, has a different format (sir+forename+surname).So, my problem would be solved, if the same format was used for governor names.But I think this can not be modified.

So Komutan, what are you thinking of changing the "sir" title to?
/Forenames & Surnames for constructed names.
//
// titles
["Sir"] {"your choice "}
["Don"] {"Don "}
["Lord"] {"Lord "}
["Amir"] {"Amir "}
["Captain"] {"Captain"}
["Prince"] {"Prince "}
["King"] {"King "}
["Princess"] {"Princess "}
["Emperor"] {"Emperor "}
["Sultan"] {"Sultan "}
just be sure not to change the original label in the squared brackets only the translation, ...LOS
