Modder's names in map

Since Ill be adding the vehicle sounds and localizing EP2GOS. for the final this weekend...I was wondering something.

It appears theres a good chance of this map ending up in the mappack...so Id like to make it a "gametoast " wrap-up..and honor the Gametoast modders with their screen names as soldiers on the battlefield in Geonosis(sort of an easter-egg).

With each modder's permission....Id like to replace the "gamma" and "delta" default names with the names of the modders from gametoast to immortalize them in the map(i.e. CaptainMazda killed Grievous, or TEANCUM killed UNIT 455). Each one who agrees will be present as either a REP or CIS unit..to be locked into an eternal struggle with acklay/droid/rep soldier/jedi...etc.

Permission list:
OGB

All the modders that have a map in the "released" section would be eligeable. The amount of pioneering spirit and forging ahead with the new tools to share the know-how is very appreciated.

Of course..this is by permission only. If you would like to be added..please say so(and what side you would like to be seen on).

If enough are interested..then Id like to do it. Thanks for all the great debate/discussion and knowledge sharing.


Permission List:
1. OGEB1103 Republic
2. Rends Republic
3. Lord Bandu CIS (magnaguard--if possible)
4. Majin Revan Republic
5. Emraz either(acklay...lol..J/k)
6. Schizo CIS
7. Captain Mazda Republic (clone commander if possible)
8. Female_Penguin (Republic)

Indeed a good idea! It's a nice way to award the modders for their effort since they offer their maps for free!

great idea. the only problem i can think of is if those users where actually playing in the battle with the same name. then it might get a bit confusing with two CaptainMazda's running around, but it's still a good idea.

If you decide to do this, how about posting the text section of the names you changed so others can add it to their maps too?

all you have to do is edit the localize thing and change the names of all the units

Techniquely I havent released a final map but i have released a 'lagtest' and a few other mods (plants,darth maul speeder and the Tie Defender when -_- finished the weapon odf's)

So, you have permission to use ' Lord Bandu ' . Id like to be the Magnaguard if possible (il send you the staff before you release the final map if you still want it? )

BTW- I'm Majin Revan, not MajinRevan. Game Toast Forums disallow spaces in names.
