Not trying to steal any thunder away from ShaddyModda but I have created a name change mod that doesn't require any modification to the developers original scripts. The current mod would always require the script to be modified whenever a new release of the game it out.

The script will add the name selection at the start of a new game as per the existing mod but doesn't require the original developer scripts to be modified in anyway. Also the script would replace any hardcoded references to the MC's name (James) with the one you pick. This should be the only patch you would need going forward.

I hope you lot enjoy this script that should work for any future updates of this game.

Installation instructions - just copy the patch to the games folder.

Not tested using any old saves - so cannot verify that - sorry!

I created this mod without playing the game currently but it has been tested using a new game - so the MC name can be changed and any hard coded references to James were changed successfully.

Why Pepper first? Just wondering. I'd prefer Miranda first. But, I think due Sarah's anger issue, she might kill the MC and that would end the game too soon. Ahahaha
Pepper doesn't have a very personal relationship with the MC, she's just a single work friend. Miranda has known the MC for years and is best friends with his mom, plus the obvious Sarah thing as well

There are walls that need to come down before the MC and Miranda can become a thing

Didn't work for my very old saves. Yeah, I still have those original saves. lol

Very much in agreement. We don't want the MC's funeral THAT fast. lol

I just hope we get the option to drop Katie, before she drops us. She's fun and I normally love the batshit crazy chicks, but, that girl is certifiable.

Thanks for letting everyone know but does it work with a recent save like from the end of the last update with my mod?
I didn't have a save from the last update. I skipped it.

Edit:
Figured out why it doesn't work with my original saves. I think. Those saves are dependent on my mod.

Since you say you usually love batshit girls, I'm curious what puts her over the edge lol

Thanks for responding to this, Wolf

Since, I am unable to confirm this - can someone that has a save from the last game update verify if it works with me mod please?
