Localization Arrays?
Hey there, I've been working through the process of editting namelists from this end and have been running into an issue with overwriting the localization arrays in XComGame.int -- how'd you manage it?

Whenever I try to change the arrays (m_arrAmMFirstNames[]... etc) it compiles fine, but has no effect in game. I feel like I'm just missing something simple at this point, but I have no idea what it could be.

Thanks!

Have you declared the object that the array belongs to first? In this case [XGCharacterGenerator]?

For example, the first lines of my ranger edits read:

[Ranger X2SoldierClassTemplate]
RandomNickNames[54]="Albatross"
RandomNickNames[55]="Alleycat"

As you can see I'm also manually declaring the array position.

I hope this helps some and good luck with your project!

I'm having a similar problem with a mod to increase possible mission names.

I wrote;


[XGMission]
m_aFirstOpName[113]=Holy
m_aFirstOpName[114]=Demonic
m_aFirstOpName[115]=Suspenseful
m_aFirstOpName[116]=Electrical


And so on, but the list just won't work.

I know I'm writing it the right way because when I manually insert them the XComGame.int using a text editor they show up in game just fine.

I have no idea, Havelock! This was the first thing I tried and it just kinda worked. :P

I am planning on doing stuff with the Opeartion names too in the future so if I come across anything at that time I'll update this thread and let you know. :)

Thanks. I talked to a few other modders, and they all ran into the same problem as I did.

apparently there is something when adding lists to operation names in specific

hello i wonder if there is an option for modding the nicknames also for other translations. I mean for example i play on russian the game give me only nicknames in russian language or i play in germen the game give me only german nicknames... Is this possible? I mean the existing nicknames just translated.
