v11 question... changing character's name

Trustworthy

Sailor Apprentice
I decided to give v11 a whirl, but am having a problem changing my character's name in the .ini file.

The starting char skin, stats, money, etc., all seem to be alterable in the .ini file like they always have been, but the modded game doesn't seem to recognize when I change the charater's first and last names (which is the one thing, along with skin, that I actually ~want~ to change). The character menu still displays as Nathaniel Hawk, and my char introduces himself as such to NPCs.

Is there a quick fix to this? Some other file that I should tweak?

Thanks!
 
Yeah, don't mind this `land-lubbing` fool. I just found my answer in the buildsettings.h file, about two seconds after I finally decided to post the question...

Hi Trustworthy, <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

In the builds (10+, IIRC, before, it was NK.c), this functionality has been moved to the BuildSettings.h file in the PROGRAMS directory. You can alter all that stuff there.

HTH! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Here, this link should work - if it asks you for a password, enter <span style='color:red'>piratesahoy</span>

<a href="ftp://files%40piratesahoy%2Enet@ftp.piratesahoy.net/`Upload-Download`%20Folder/`build11-standard`.exe" target="_blank">ftp://files%40piratesahoy%2Enet@ftp.pirat...andard`.exe</a>

NOTE: This is an online installer - you will need to be connected to the internet to install this for your game.

If you are in a non US/UK area of the world and need to install localised files, please be sure to select "Localised" in the download menu. Also be sure to select EUROPEAN version or your game will crash

The extra textures files are not strictly necessary - so if you are having any trouble with the download, don't worry about getting them.

Catalina, I think Boat Sweeper was trying to download Build 11 via <a href="http://build.piratesahoy.net/" target="_blank">http://build.piratesahoy.net/</a> and he didn't succeed because the subdomain has been deleted. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Thanks to Fred_Bob this link for Build 11 is working:

<a href="http://www.myhostingplan.net/piratesahoy/build/packages/`build11-standard`.exe" target="_blank">http://www.myhostingplan.net/piratesahoy/b...andard`.exe</a>
 
Yes, and the above link also works. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

Keith is trying to clean out the FTP so we can accomodate new mods and the Build 12 full download for those who need to download on a different machine than their game machine. He's also making changes to the site, so some of the links may not work anymore. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
