how to use (attached) urm mod to rename Characters or replace text in any RenPy game:
(Note: this mod is non-invasive and will NOT alter ANY of your game files, if you don't want or need it, just remove the file again)

This Mod is universal and works with 99% of all RenPy games !
(for "how to use cheating/changing values" search this forum for "URM mod" and get a detailed documentation over there)

1.) extract urm file
2.) place file in "game" folder as usual
3.) start game
4.) when prompted to update mod, do either choice (doesn't matter if update fails either)
5.) once ingame (started new game or loaded savegame), hit ALT + M (at once)
6.)

i recommend also to select "case insentive" and "Replace parts", so that "dylan's" would be "yourname's".
This will replace every word of your choice in shown text, but sadly this will not affect your "Sayers" (name above textbox)

Normally, you would also change the Sayer like this:

But as you see:

This is where the dev REALLY messed up. He REALLY created over TWO THOUSAND characters in this game - mostly for Dylan only. Good luck and have fun to rename them all.
Not mentionning that we are "only" in early state of the game, knowing a handful NPC, and already have 2000+ variables for character names in the code.
RESPECT !!!!!!!!!

That's why i wrote in my review, that i doubt this game will be able to be finished based on that complete mess of code and the way it's been coded.

Apologies if this has been answered before; I played 2.5 and now 2.6.6, and both end in the exactly same point... what's new on this update? What did I miss?

BTW, the motel scene is just awesome.

i agree - but it's nearly impossible to put a rename function into the game the way it's coded. Guess the modder just had refactored "Dylan" with "BigDick" (bad move).
You might use URM-Mod and replace "BigDick" with any name of your choice, so that at least the textlines refer to the name you want, but still the Sayer (name displayed above the text) will not be affected by that at all - you would need to replace all dozen hundreds (yes, you read right) of different "dylan-sayers" manually, which isn't worth the effort at all. That's why i played without ipatch as that's the lesser evil XD.
Now, your talking computer tech stuff, way above my pay grade.

You don't have to use URM-Mod to do that...
You have not read my post and used my V2 ipatch !
You just have to edit MY file and replace BigDick by whatever you want.
This is what I have write in my post
The ipatch made by SonsOLiberty is excellent but is a rewrite of all the script and can break the game, not mine. Because I have used the pattern matching to replace strings by another. You can use with the new 0.2.6.6 without risk. The only things it can happen is a non display of the correct strings.

Wow this is what I get for making a game and posting it for free...
smh

I would just report them and continue to make the game how you want it. After all, you will never please everyone so no need to try to. You are the one who came up with the idea and put the work in to make it so far.

So tell your story the way you want it to be and forget/ignore the trolls.

Sorry, just using those words, gave me a headache.
yeah - i know - i also recognized AFTERWARDS that URM - Mod is doubled down (universal Renpy Mod - Mod sounds crazy), but i guess people know what i meant XD

not 100% sure, but i believe to remember his nick. I might had an encounter with him in other thread(s). Just report him and let the mods to their job. There is no reason to bother about such trolls who are out for trouble whenever they see a possible target.

On top of that, this guy can't do other than trying to incite. Here are his posts (he did only 10):

As you see, there are barely normal posts without rant - typical toxic pleb

Oh come on, If he had said that to a random person in a pub, he would being helped to find the exit without bothering to open the door.
I'm shure Interblade reported him, that was beyond everything, he didn't publish it in a public thread he send it per DM that is what blew me off. anyway ! good thing is that I have now the perfect excuse to drink a couple of whisky to calm my nerves
cheers ;):D:D
