Text Strings

Post by ihatecompviruses123 »

How can I change the text strings in the game?Example:You Killed ponebutt to You pwned ponebutt.I've looked at the text strings with a text editor,but I never find anything.Please help. Every time I use find,I search up "killed" with the text bubble bubbled in and it says no matches found.I was wanting to make it say,"You Diced ponebutt" when you kill someone and when you kill yourself I wanted to make it say "You bit the dust".Can someone help?I need the knowledge to further my modding skills and it would help me make my ninja mod.

Open the map in a hex editor and search for the strings and change them. But you cannot have more letters than the origional phrase.

Go get Hex Workshop. It's one of the best editors out there (IMO).
