Get version 2.0 it supports other string reference numbers in the name. To change the name you need to know the Dialog.tlk string reference number...If you dont have a clue what i am talking about get infintity explorer here: [url="http://infexp.sourceforge.net/"]http://infexp.sourceforge.net/[/url] and use that to look at the dialog files. Besides each one you will see a number. Thats the string reference number.

Also if you want, I have a zipped file I can send you that has every string reference number under 50 characters its about 900kbs.

If you have any questions just post.

Also you can hex edit the name at location 0x008 (long creature name)and 0x00c (short creature name).Once you know the string reference number you want. Input your new string reference number in the unsigned long byte.
