Changing the names of bots.

Post by nobody3 »

I'd like to change the names of the AI bots (for example names like Lan Olesa/Kyp Astar/Doran Krotan and whatnot) but I have no idea how or where can I do that. Any suggestions?

Also, would it be possible to enable their names to be displayed ingame like on human players? either in blue text if theyre on my team or in red text if theyre on enemy team?

You can change the names within the localization.bat file. Need a map for them to appear.

I'm 99% sure you can't make names appear above units unless they are a player, but 1% of me says theres some wacky way that would take forever to do and look bad anyways.

I'm guessing that you may be able to use the multiplayer mechanic to have the names of the AI appear above them, but all of this is speculation.
