Class names and freecam changes?

Post by ukrai »

apologies for two questions in one post, just seemed a little less spammy.

anyway, firstly can anyone please help with giving my custom side classes a new name, i copied in and changed a few classes but in game they have default names like 'jet trooper' etc, how can i change the display name in-game?

on another topic, is it possible to modify the move speed, specifically panning, for the freecam?

you can change trooper names by opening 'editlocalize.bat' in data_ABC. Look here enity>sides>rep (or other side)>your units odf file name.

As fo the free cam thing, I don't think it's possible, but hey, you never know. :wink:

Freecam speed can be adjusted with "+" and "-" on your keyboard.

Now did you open it with Notepad or just double-click (as you're supposed to)?

not sure what you mean? and it doesnt seem to be working, i modified the name of a few but they didnt change in game, note that im using custom sides but using the same odf names/files from various asset sides. My specific side names are not appearing in the list that it gives me in entity though, should it be?
