This may sound prettty stupid and im SURE there is an answer somewhere but.. i cant find out how you change the team names (GDI and Nod) as well as the yellow and red colours in the top right hand corner, i wanted to start a mod with different teams but if it still says GDI and Nod up there, it will look pretty bad Sad

oh, and i have replaced all the strings with 'GDI' and 'G D I' in them with the team name i want, and it didnt work, same goes for Nod.

You actually have to edit the strings and not just their names. At the moment your just renaming the strings making the game unable to find the one it's looking for because you have renamed them. I don't know much about editing the strings but i know you need to change their values in the strings.tdb file. There is a feature in LevelEdit to edit them if you have excell installed.

Team color changing in Level Edit doesn't seem to work.

Team Color Changing works, I've done it. It's under global settings. You just can't scroll otherwise the whole thing gets messed.

As for the ones in the join screen, that's probally because the mod hasn't been started yet.

The color of the dots on the radar can be changed in level edit, not sure about the EVA target box though.

OOOOOOOH! I was thinking join screen and in-game. Doh!

Not sure about those but there might be some strings that will say something like "GDI: %n" and "Nod: %n" (guess, I could be incorrect however). Those are what you'll need to edit.

I already got the join screen to change but as you said, it will appear different till the mod is loaded and you quit, but its the team names in the top right in game that im trying to change, the yellow and red colours used arnt under global settings.
