[Tutorial] Change the names of the weapons

I don't know if you know this.
Okay, first, I'm french. If you don't understand me, ... tell me.

With this tutorial, you can change the name of the weapons, but you can change ALL the texts in Worms 4 Mayhem. I explain it later.

This is a bit difficult.

Open WeapTwk.xml .

You have...

Code:

<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<xomArchive>
  <xomObjects>
    <XDataBank id='id-0'>
      <Section>0</Section>
      <IntResources href='AI.WeaponsDontEndTurn'/>
      <IntResources href='Flood.FloodDuration'/>
...


Now, go to :

Code:

      <ColorResources href='Payload.FuseTimerInitialColor'/>
      <ColorResources href='Payload.FuseTimerUrgentColor'/>
    </XDataBank>

In this tutorial, we will change the name of the Bazooka, for exemple. The "name" of the Bazooka is "Text.kWeaponBazooka".

Now, add a new line, like that :

Code:

      <ColorResources href='Payload.FuseTimerUrgentColor'/>
      <StringResources href='Text.kWeaponBazooka'/>
    </XDataBank>

Be sure you have written "<StringResources ", and not "<ContainerResources".

Now, go to the end of WeapTwk.xml .

You have...

Code:

<XColorResourceDetails id='Payload.FuseTimerUrgentColor'>
      <Value r='255' g='255' b='255' a='255' />
      <Name>Payload.FuseTimerUrgentColor</Name>
      <Flags>64</Flags>
    </XColorResourceDetails>
  </xomObjects>
</xomArchive>

And now, add this:

Code:

    <XStringResourceDetails id='Text.kWeaponBazooka'>
      <Value>The new name of the Bazooka</Value>
      <Name>Text.kWeaponBazooka</Name>
      <Flags>64</Flags>
    </XStringResourceDetails>
  </xomObjects>
</xomArchive>

And change "The new name of the Bazooka" with a name, whatever you want.

Now, save, and launch the game !

The names of the weapons are in "<DisplayName></DisplayName>" in WeapTwk.xml.


Okay.

You can change ALL the texts in Worms 4: Mayhem.
Just change "Text.kWeaponBazooka" with the "name" of the text to change.

I have the list of all the texts to change (without the texts in the missions) in http://up.sur-la-toile.com/ikn7 with the equivalent... in french. Sorry for you.

Name_of_the_text_to_change = Equivalent_in_french .


With this tutorial, you can change the name of the weapons, of the wormpot, of the comments when a crate appears for exemple...


Oh, and if you want to write accents :

Code:

é : Ã
è : è
ê : ê
à : à   (with an espace)
â : Â
ç : ç
ô : ô
É : É
 : Â

Awesome :!:
