or you can just use level edit,

you might want to look at this for awhile too, make sure to create your own.\

WTF does THAT have to do with LE -_-'

Edit: I can't find the building names like Hand of Nod or vehicle names when I use Strings > Edit Table.

It seems to me you can only change the texts who display when the building is attacked.. you can't rename the building itself.. atleast it seems so. But I wntn to change the building name in the game to something else..

Edit: Sorry for double post.. I accidently hitted quote instead of edit -_-

Eh..?
I don't get what you mean..
I mean like.. when you are playing in Field and you aim at the Hand of Nod you see another name like The Hand of
I don't want it for a whole different map but for the excisting ones..

Go to Buildings > (building) and put in that file in the building folder and put it into the map. Just putting in the building model in gmax is half of it. the building controller is needed in the map. just put teh controller near the building and in the properties there you can edit the name.

First of all.. my export funstion isn't working because it says I haven't got Excel installed. Second, I cab't find anything that's named Hand of Nod anywhere when I use LE, and the strings editor table. Third, when I use Notepad I can only find things like "Warning - Hand of Nod is under attack"
Or "Infiltrator in the Hand of Nod" but those are text messages. I can't find the name of the Hand of Nod itself. There's nothing like (exmaple) ID_NAMEHANDOFNOD: Hand of Nod. Or something like that -_-

Use kazza, get excel, which you shouldnt have to have to ecprt it.

if you cant handle this i suggest going back to other simpler things, like monopoly board games, your mods will be at your level there

No, you guys aren't really helping me that's my problem. I ask a simple question, and I give the errors I encounter when I try to follow the advice you guys give. Yet you aren't helping me with the errors nor the thing I'm asking for.

1. Edit the stuff you want in the LevelEdit strings editor.
2.When you're done editing, hit Ok.
3. Go to your mod folder and Always>TranslationDB
4. Copy the strings.tdb file to Renegade's Data folder.
Done!

Ok, I'll try that. Is there btw some kind of 'search' function in LE so you can search through the strings, instead of searching all the sentences for something?

did you figure it out yet -

i rename all my stuff all the time - from my loadin screen to the names of vehicles an characters

hand of nod = gothic release
gdi barracks = house of pain
gdi & nod harvesters = money cow

i havent found an easy way to do it - you have to search thru the level edit thingy - that was mentioned in this thread

most things are in the enc section

what you are actully askin for is a strings. edit - that is what mine is -

use renegade edit tool - start it up - it will ask for a mod to edit - i put "mine" - then open that up - and go to strings section - then find the section you want to change - the loadin screen is in the "load" section

then change it to what ever you want it to say - click save then go find it-

it will be in like for instance mine is -

C:\Program Files\RenegadePublicTools\LevelEdit\mine\ALWAYS\TranslationDB

thats where you will find a strings.tb file - copy that to the renegade data folder and wola

if you make a mistake and want to go back to orginal in the game go to

C:\Program Files\RenegadePublicTools\LevelEdit\ALWAYS\TranslationDB

there is an orginal one to keep

have fun -

the editing of the words in the game is endless

i named the hottie HTGunny , mlrs - pointwhore machine - hand of nod - gothic release - harvester - money cow

just a few ideas there

good luck and have fun


good luck
