Changing game strings

[Daedra]

I couldn't find a tutorial on this, it would be cool to have one though; I want to know which files I need to extract from the assets pk3 files, and then what areas of text I must edit in those extracted files, if I wanted to change the name/description etc of a weapon in the game. Using the Bowcaster as an example would be fine and would be good enough for me to follow as a guide.

assets0.pk3 -> strings -> your desired .str file. 

You can edit the files with just notepad.

 

Weapons strings are in sp_ingame.str and mp_ingame.str
