[audisbroder]

Heya!

This time I will help you to change the NPC names or Monster names. Is pretty easy.
If you got any error/problem or what ever, Just leave a comment or PM me.


Change NPC names

Spoiler:

Open your character.txt.txt.

For example you want to change the Npc "IS" to "CS seller",
search for:
Is

And change the name to CS seller or (change it to the name you liked to).
example:
IDS_CHARACTER_INC_000065 CS seller

Save the character.txt.txt and close it.

Open DataSub1.res with your RES-editor. Replace the old character.txt.txt to your new one. That you just edited. Save it and close it.

Done ~

Change Monster names

Spoiler:

Open your propMover.txt.txt.

For example you want to change the Monster "aibatt" to "Best Batt",
search for:
Aibatt

And change the name to Best Batt or (change it to the name you liked to).
example:
IDS_PROPMOVER_TXT_000006 Best Batt

Save the propMover.txt.txt and close it.

Open Data.res with your RES-editor. Replace the old propMover.txt.txt to your new one. That you just edited. Save it and close it.

Done ~

Constructive critique is always great, just keep it at a friendly level so OP doesn't feel like he's getting attacked.

One thing bugs me, and that have to be that you choose to use a Res editor instead of the merge executable located in the resource files.

... and then the fact that this actually need a tutorial. I'd be more pleased to see that you posted this in the "About Resource Files" thread instead of making a new one for this subject? I know newcomers to the area needs to start somewhere, but this is getting a tad overhand...

Simple but sweet, maybe some new comers might take advantage of off this and learn something :)
Although like Improved said, why not use merge.exe?

If they use merge2.exe they will ask this for sure:
Plzz where I get merge2.exe link plzz
I got error plzz help
That's why, I made this way !

Merge.exe is usually inside the Resource folder in most resource packs.

Great guide thank you!

Does anyone happen to know how to change the dialogs? I have been editing WorldDialog.txt but I'm assuming there's another file to edit?
