you would need to edit the map images in surfaces.pck. maybe the names are in gs.conf? but I dont really know.
configs/instanses.txt - list of maps with there ID's
element/maps - maps there own
litlmodels - buildings on map
you need just 2 change names in there
map folder: precinct.clt (text file) client side only.
in surfaces.pck\minimaps you have the minimaps for the map, you need to open that in photoshop and change it and then also to the world map and then maybe also to the precinct.clt
Actually you need only change the name in "precinct.clt" client-side, which you will find in x:\gamedir\element\maps\world for anywhere that is located within the main world map. Obviously if you wanted to change any dungeon names you would edit precinct.clt in their respective maps\axx (or maps\bxx)folder.
If I am not mistaken this may cause a 'map out of sync' type error message though, since the server side now doesn't match the client side. If this is the case simply convert the CLT to SEV using ronny1982's awesome map tool. Once you have the SEV converted from your CLT place it in it's respective directory on your server (/PWServer/gamed/config/world/)etc...
well no becuase it will then still say in big leters on the map "nameless isle"
which is shit.
That is true, however you don't edit that in mini-maps, that would be located in:Quote:

Also -- I almost forgot, for the maps zoom in function, you would have to change (or add if you wanted) to the corresponding .dds image in surfaces.pck ==> surfaces.pck.files/surfaces/maps/
I don't have a nice fancy list of these but these are all parts of the map for when you're zoomed in while viewing the map. EXample: look at surfaces.pck.files/surfaces/maps/011.dds and you would see where you could alter the name for "Land of Biting".
