hi,
I worked out how to change regional names using RegionsUtil.exe. Now I'm looking to do the same for city names but this isn't going as smoothly. I get the impression city names are held at a scenario level and therefore you have to change them using the scenario-specific files.
I looked at the Excel -> CSV -> CSVSplitter route but couldn't make sense of it. I mean I could find varioius scenario-related spreadsheets, and they each have a Cities worksheet in them which I could modify and then save as a CSV file, but as to how you then process them in the Splitter, this seems totally opaque. I don't know what tab to use, what extension to use, where they should be output to etc etc.
So, I thought I would go the direct route. The most relevant references seemed to be in a bunch of scenario/campaign related .inc files. So, taking the Wien -> Vienna example, I looked for the string "SetName = Wien" and wherever I found it changed it to "SetName = Vienna". However in the game, the city in question still appeared as Wien.
There's obviously something missing in what I'm doing or a guide to all this that I've missed. If I wanted, for example, to change the name of the city "Wien" to "Vienna", throughout the game, how would I go about it?
cheers
