Editing or adding new quotes is a fairly easy process.

You'll need to edit 3 files :

- descr_quotes_lookup.txt
- descr_transition_screen.txt

(both may be found in the 'Data' folder)

- quotes.txt (found in the text folder)

First, let's have a look at the 'descr_transition_screen.txt' file :

Simply put, the tag Quote_x refers to the quote that may be read on loading screen, and the tag Author_x refers to the author of the Quote_x (whose name may also be read on the loading screen )

descr_quotes_lookup.txt :

In this file, you'll find tags for each quote/author. They must correspond to the transition_screen tags.

The last file, quote.txt, countains all the quotes, listed after their corresponding tags.

If you want to add a new quote, you first have to add new tags in descr_transition_screen.txt and in descr_quotes_lookup.txt. In our exemple, it would look like that :

Once that's done, go to quotes.txt (in the text folder), and simply add the quote at the bottom of the list.


If you simply want to edit existing quotes, you just have to edit the text in the quotes file.

If you want to delete existing quotes, I think you have to delete them for the 3 files, although I'm not 100% sure about that.

Someone might have already written a tuto for this, but I couldn't find it, so here's mine.
