CHANGING NAMES

HI , I HAVE ONE QUESTION
HOW CAN I CHANGE THE NAMES OF FAMILY MEMBERS ?

You seem to have 2 questions.

Q1. Where can I disable Caps Lock?
A1. Press Caps Lock again.

Q2. Can I change names of FM's?
A2. Characters born during the game, no. Only those of starting characters.

CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL


But even with cruise control, you still have to steer.

You can probably do it by modifying save game files with a hex editor... :thinking:

WHY YOU PEOPLE HAVE ISSUES WITH CAPS LOCK? ALLCAPS ROCKS DUDES, LET THE MAN EXPRESS HIMSELF.

Please stop shouting :quiet:

Let's use our indoor voices everyone :yes:

Anywho, I don't think you can change family names in-game, you may be able to do this in the data files though. I really have no idea how you can change names if you can even, and may I ask why? Are you trying to make an AAR to fit your personal taste?

do you mean how do you change names say like a roman general?
as in from a triumphus.

ex.) you have a marcus orestes scipio or something of the sort.
and he kills macedonians like a mad man and is named marcus macedonicus?

other then that im not sure what you could mean.

Yeah, you can change 'em in-game. Just play around with the names files. However, changing a Julius to a Scipio will affect all Julius's, living and dead.

The only way to actually edit a single character is through the use of a hex editor.

for example i want to change antiochos syriakos to antiochos soter , theodoros syriakos to antiochos theos , kallinikos syriakos to seleukos kallinikos

how???

which file should i change??

Not worth your trouble mate. Those titles weren't names anyway, so you can just roleplay he was given the title.

To change names like that of the Roman triumphs, you need to write new traits. Writing traits is not easy if you've never done it before and adding new traits is not save-game compatible.

Damn. Was hoping something like this would be easier to do - was going to ask if it'd be possible to give epithets or titles to Hellenic generals provided certain conditions were met
