Are there any ways to change weapon's name ?

[Noguchi47]

I know it's because of copyright but I'm really sick of seeing fake names of real weapons and want to edit the game's file myself but I have no idea what file to look for to change the name of the weapon and attachments. I would be grateful if someone could help me and explain to me how to change the name.

As far as i know there arent but like why does it matter? You can maybe try to change their names in the files on ur pc

i have been searching for the files but there aren't anything related to the gun's name and I am not a big fan of fake name. I tried to ask on unity discord server and they don't want to help with 3rd party mod sadly

Yes, it's possible to mod it, and it's very easy to do so (though not as easy as most games that provide translations as text files).

Basically, the names/descriptions/translations are hard coded in the game. You'll need a modding tool like dnSpyEx, disassemble "NightRaider_Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp.dll", then edit the class/method "TextManager.GetDataByEN()" (for English) and recompile. Maybe this sounds complicated but it's no more difficult than opening a text editor, writing things, and saving it. (Google/YouTube tutorials)

The actual translations look like this:

{
    "KL-7", "M1M9", "GLK17", "U5P", "BLTM9", "Snake Revolver", "Desert Vulture", "Cropped Shotgun", "PR2000", "MPS", ...
}

And you would just edit them to whatever and save.

Find a *modding* Unity Discord server instead next time.

You're welcome I just happened to already know of these things because of my old item guide and personal mods. I'm not sure if anyone else mods this game yet, and I just started playing again myself.

Thanks a lot for your help! I am planning to change name for all gun and attachments then release it as a mod.
