Want to rename a character
As a joke on a friend I want to rename one of the people, but I can't for the life of me figure out how. I tried changing the actorname in physical_materials and that didn't work so I changed it back then I tried changing the PhysName in GoatGame.int and no matter what the ingame text always uses the old name.

Can anyone point to what I need to change to rename the humans so for example it says "Kicked CustomNameHere" in the game?

Just the default goat. Are the human names somehow tied to which goat you select?

Well I don't know if it's possible to change that name directly from the level editor, anyway if you use some script there is a variable called mNPCName in the class GGNPCMMO that contain the actual name of the NPC ^^

3 days and no satisfaction, all I wanted to do was rename a female like "Line" to "Kristy" you'd think after making FarCry 3 Rebalanced I'd be able to handle something simple like this! lol. Ah well thanks for the help anyway.

Ok, after more work I noticed this is just for the MMO expansion and mNPCName only gets the name from a list that is located ??? Either way it's moot as I need the location for names in the base game to change not the MMO.

That's true, I thought you were trying to change the name of one of the NPC in the MMO when I read your message X)
If you want to change the name of any other random NPC, well it looks like you were really close with the plysical material thing, actually the name displayed in the game is stored in the variable mActorInGameName of the GGPhysicalMaterialProperty class. Anyway I still have no idea how to access this through the level editor... All I can say is that it should be located here: Pawn.Mesh.Materials[0].PhysicalMaterialProperty.
