Does this work alongside "Empty Names"?

Okay, I'll try then, thank you ! ^^

It was made for the original game, but should work fine with WOTC.

For which version of the game this mod was made for ?

Cool :) Thanks!

That's a good idea.

sure, go ahead. just make sure you put in the description that running your mod at the same time as this mod might potentially cause issues

@krj12

I was wondering if I could add your mod to mine? (I will have two. One is a pool and the other is a somewhat extensive Class mod). It will be easier for in this case just to incorporate yours into mine so I can make all the modifications at the same time as I go back and forth in my files. I would, of course, give you credit.

Does this work for weapon names? It would be nicer to have longer weapon name text boxes lol

Great mod. Thank you. I hated needing to use short nicknames.

@Sailor Pothead it works just fine with WOTC. [imgur.com] If you're modding XCOM 2 you should be using the Alternative Mod Launcher anyway.

As of the new launcher this no longer activates for WOTC

Typo, this is the first mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=775863632

I had the same want... It looks like that after I installed these two mods - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=7758 and https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=888447725 (the second is a requirement for the first one), I am now able to enter longer weapon names.

Is there any mod that extends the length of weapon names?

I'd like to call, let say, a Plasma Lance with superior weapon upgrades as "Superior Plasma Lance", or a Storm Gun with advanced weapon upgrades as "Advanced Storm Gun", so I can instantly recognize every upgraded weapon by names, but the maximum length for weapon names is only twelve characters.

no, it doesnt.

Pretty sure the answer is no, but let me ask, does this mod enable longer weapon names? Thanks.

Not sure. Probably not, as long as they don't attempt to edit the characters, but cant be 100% sure unless it's attempted.

so i got a question: i created a CP mod and edited names/nicknames to be more longer, do my CP mod subscribers need also your mod or not at all to also see the longer names/nicknames???

It is safe to use for wotc. No, it's not just an INI, unfortunately.

so i assume this is safe to use for wotc??

is this mod just some kind of ini editing??

Eh.... well, just tried it now and. Now it actually is working.

(Last time I tried it, it didn't....)

Welp, apologies for being a bit of a bother on that one, heheh...

I've had no problems with it in WOTC.

Hey, question. Has there been any updates done to this mod? (In terms of getting it to w ork with WotC). If not, is fine just. Thought I'd ask out of curiosity. (Been a right pain in the arse to name things in XCOM 2 lately.)

Thanks !
No bug with other mod, perfect.

Read about four posts before yours. Never used that mod, but it cant hurt to try it.

Is there an equivalent of this for weapon names?

Thankfully still works fine under WotC

Thank you!

I will be going through my mods over the next few days, hopefully will get everything fixed soon.

Will you be updateing this for WoTC?

@BladeofSharpness: Well, the following mod lets you do that, amongst other things. Dunno if the "mod everything"-part is deactivateable in a .ini through, since I choose to just ignore the ability to mod those other things... https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=622863565

Is there a way to add longer names to weapon names too? They are restricted to 11 letters and that's too short.

This works! Thanks bro!

@Brother Eye that problem with LW2 has been attributed to when you are using another mod that affects injury/bleeding out mechanics. Highly doubt it's this mod.

@Brother Eye: You're 100% sure it's this mod? I mean, I highly doubt this mod changes anything that could lead to that... o.o"

Mod causes a fault in Long War 2, after the first mission the first squad will still be marked "On Mission" and all soldiers who get deployed ever get stuck infiltrating permemantly

Still not working for me, shrugs. Thanks, though!

Could Ser Lancelot maybe have some incompatability? Dunno if there's a mod that results in that...anyway, I remember the old version of Longer Names not working for me, and suddenly working at some later point(without me unsubscribing from any mod, only subscribing to more ^^")...

Very odd, try putting it back at 30. There may be some internal limit in the code that you're hitting.

I have it at 50 and I still am clipped at way less than 20...maybe at the vanilla limit. I have unsubbed and subbed several times...

This isn't working...?

@_b1ack0out: Mod Everything can do that for you(amongst other things).

is it possible to get this mod to work for weapon names as well?

Thank you!

@Lanius Can you try Alt + 0160? It suppose to give you an empty text and it doesn't count as spacebar.

Looking at the code, they've made it almost impossible to do so, short of a class override, which the Empty Names mod does and is causing instability. The concept of MVC programming appears foreign to this development group.

can you also allow for empty names?

Thanks for doing this, krj12 :-D

@Antipodes: If it still works, this mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=622863565&searchtext=mod+everything has that feature. If, like me, you don't want to use the capabilites of modding secondary weapons etc., just don't do it.

Would it be possible for this mod to allow longer names for weapons too?
