New Namesets

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 10:27 AM

Anyone have any additional namesets? I got one guy's Israeli one. I didn't know if anyone had any other nationalities that we don't originally have

joefromchicago · 03-20-2018, 10:55 AM

Well, these aren't new, but...

Lithuanian names

Serbian names

Finnish names

Hawaiian names

Filipino names

Israeli names

Cuban names

I'm getting close to complete a huge German name file

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 12:47 PM

Wait...isn't #22 already serbian?

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 12:51 PM

Nevermind, I get it.

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 12:52 PM

Well if anyone comes up with any additional ones, you can post them here!

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 01:10 PM

Is there a way to specify that people that are hawaiian have names from a hawaiian name set?

Phantom Player · 03-20-2018, 07:57 PM

I made Mongolian, Persian, Swahili, and Thai name sets a while back that I’ll post in the mods section when I find them.

Edit: A link to the post in the mods section.

How do you add these?

edit the world_default.xml for it to update.

The first part is ethnicities. Copy one of them and paste it right afterward, but change the name and the facial frequencies then Find the country in the file and replace lid="##" with lid="41" or "42", etc.

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 10:05 PM

This an example of the ethnicity code that I added for Israel:

<ETHNICITY id="40" name="Israeli" african="0" asian="0" east_indian="100" caucasian="60" hispanic="0" />

Rosco Peabody · 03-20-2018, 10:07 PM

You also have to copy all of the names into your "names" and "first names" database folder, making sure they all have the correct number ending corresponding to what you wanted (for instance, I made Israel 40, but you could use any number)

An easy way to replace them is when you open up the downloaded Israeli names with TextEdit of something like that, "Find and Replace" the 39 that is there with 40 or whatever number you want

In the past, the values for an ethnicity had to equal 1000. I'm not sure if that's still true now that ethnicities have moved to the world_default file. In fact, I'm not even sure why there's still an ethnicities.txt file in the database - what does that do?

Oh that might be true. That might have been an oversight on my part. Thanks Joe

I don't think it does anything now, I think we just never removed it.

Oh, so I don't have to add a new ethnicity to the world_dat file? I just have to change a particular country's ID to the new number? Am I understanding correctly?

No. You have to add a new ethnicity to the world file. All I was saying is that the ethnicities.txt file is redundant now afaik, but I think we just never deleted it.

Rosco Peabody · 03-21-2018, 11:24 AM

Got it. Thanks

r0nster · 03-21-2018, 12:01 PM

I do have an additional question. If I moved my game forward of which I did ... do the new namesets that came with the game as per the thread I will link be active right away and with the ethnicity will then take place but leave in place the current players in minors and majors ??? When new players created is when it will be "correct" from that point forward ?? I just wanted to be 100% sure if that's how it works so I know with certainty as I play it out

Rosco Peabody · 03-21-2018, 01:35 PM

I think the names will only apply to newly created players from then forward
