This was mostly the problem of the last name, which changed for the MC, but not any of the rest of the family.
Additionally, the name changes persisted inside the dialog boxes, but the headers over the dialog boxes still shows the default names for the other characters.
I changed the default...
Ok, the changes seem to be persisting this time, although I'm not sure what I did differently.
Now, I'd just like to know how to get the dialog boxes to reflect the changes made to the character names.
I'll try it again, but no; the changes don't seem to persist, and I have no idea why.
Also, changing the names for certain characters seemed to make the game crash. Again, no idea why.
I've been reading the posts on this thread and playing around with it for over an hour, and I cannot seem to figure out which files/variables to tweak with URM to get renaming to stick.
Can someone make a list of what exactly to do?
