LAND OWNER NAME CHANGES

Post by iceman4757 »

i love the griffin indiana map! my question is this: is there a way to change the names of the different land owners? And if so whats the easiest way to go about it? Would like to change the names to some of the people I work with at work as the more I talk about it the more interested they are becoming in wanting to get the game as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The Griffin map uses its own xml file for this:
Look into the maps zip file and check the maps folder. You will find a file called mapMod_npcs.xml
There you will find all the names of the NPCs and you can adjust them the way you like it.

Notepad ++ is the best application to edit xml. Can't remember where I downloaded it from
