Hi Ilion!

Great mod, is there a template for leisure, tourist, or eco commercial specialisation?

Thanks

Thank you; I'm glad you found this useful. As to your question, I couldn't tell you, as I don't have any of those DLC.

I managed to do it by specifying specific buildings (eg: <LocalizedString identifier="BUILDING_NAME" key="3x2_Bowling Alley">Bowl Til You Drop</LocalizedString>) but I was hoping there was a shortcut :P

Another question: when I add a new custom names list and reload a save game it takes the names from the new names list. That's what happened when I added custom names list for Cims names. As in, I reloaded the game and now my Cims have names like Muhammad Lim and Dmitri Kapur. But when I tried to do the same for Residences the names don't appear in the game. I added about 350 names so at least some of them should be appearing. Any idea why this might be?

If you use the "Export Complete Namelist" button on the settings page for the "Custom Namelists" mod, it will write a text file to your desktop containing all the LocalizedString values currently loaded in the game. Reading that file, you may find the patterns, etc used for the leisure, tourist, or eco commercial specialisation.

As for your custom residence names not appearing, I'm presuming you added them using the <LocalizedString identifier="RESIDENCE_NAME">xxx</LocalizedString> local-string.

Perhaps the RESIDENCE_LOW_PATTERN and RESIDENCE_HIGH_PATTERN local-strings are taking precedence <-- that's just a guess on my part. Try using the .Blacklist file to eliminate all the RESIDENCE_LOW_PATTERN and RESIDENCE_HIGH_PATTERN local-strings for all levels.

Yep, blacklisting works! Thanks

Ilion  [developer] 26 Apr, 2019 @ 5:55am 
Great! You're welcome.

Hello! I'm really liking this mod!
I have a suggestion. With the new update, would it be possible to customize job titles?
#7
Ilion  [developer] 22 May, 2019 @ 2:43am 
I'm glad you're finding it useful. But, I really can't make that change. One huge reason is that I don't have the recent update -- or, really, any revision starting with Green Cities (starting with GC, the game locks up if I try to play the newer versions).

When I use RESIDENCE_LOW_PATTERN and RESIDENCE_HIGH_PATTERN, LOW and HIGH are not distinguished.
RESIDENCE_HIGH_PATTERN is used for LOW.
#9
Ilion  [developer] 5 Apr, 2020 @ 7:47pm 
I don't have a solution for you, other than to double-check the spelling. The string-names listed in the OP are what is output by the "Export Complete Namelist" button on the settings page for the "Custom Namelists" mod.
#10
Erke 24 May, 2022 @ 4:27am 
Is there a string/way to apply the lastnames to both females and males?
#11
Ilion  [developer] 24 May, 2022 @ 11:09am 
Not that I know of.
#12
Erke 24 May, 2022 @ 1:24pm 
Is there any Pattern strings that could be applied to lastnames?

I tried using these but didn't seem to work...

<LocalizedString identifier="NAME_FEMALE_LAST_PATTERN">{0}xxx</LocalizedString>
<LocalizedString identifier="NAME_MALE_LAST_PATTERN">{0}xxx</LocalizedString>
#13
Ilion  [developer] 24 May, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
I don't believe so. When I "exported" the string-file, I saw no patterns for names.
