String Id number help

I could really use some help in finding \adding\editing names info etc.. in the dlls but when i check in the ini files the string id apears nowhere in the namedresources.dll. can someone plz help me with this

Post Mon Mar 10, 2003 9:39 am

what programs are you using to open the dll's ?

I have tried reshack, restorator, resource tuner, pe studio

Post Mon Mar 10, 2003 9:48 am

ok im using resource tuner (imho: the best) and you want to change planet names/ system names /people's names? I dont see why you look at the Ini's when you want to change names in dll's.

well i want to add new ones to the list but if i dont know how the originals relate to ids in dlls it makes it very hard

Try adding them under another string that already has a name, that way you can easily find the id number for it and use the next number.

I would like to know any easier way to, if anyone knows.

i tried that and it nvr worked

Post Mon Mar 10, 2003 9:59 am

Well keep trying, doing it that way the numbers arent always in the same order as the way you view them in resource tuner, but its close.

Try the next few numbers before and after.

I've been wondering about it myself (I am not a binary wizzkid )
Almost all stuff in INIs has ids_strid and ids_info but they don't match stringtable's ids in nameresources.dll. Anyone?

i havent looked at that yet (thankyou btw ive found a name of something to open them )

but i would presume it would go by line number? will look as soon as i get the program
