hmm i tried already once to add the names to that dll and also replaced existing names by mine.. doesn't seem to take it from there.. or maybe i'm doing something wrong..as i replaced non mp groups.. maybe if u'd rename the navy or something and try to get a bribe from them you'll see it changed.. but i got no time at the moment to try that out.. but surely worth a try..
I also have no clue how this file would be used by the game in a bribe, but I hope someone will find a solution. I realized that creating custom bribes that don't use the faction name variables doesn't avoid the problem entirely. Suppose that one of your custom factions magages to get in the top three enemy list of a pre-mod faction; then a pre-mod bribe would still render a blank. Which sucks.
(Btw, I use the word "pre-mod" for an item that belongs to the the game as it is unmodded. It' might be a silly word, but I don't know a better one; English ain't my native language. Any suggestions?)
