Oh well, i have continully tried to no avail. I am sorry but i don't understand what i am doing wrong. I must have missed something, what does the HyperTerminal File do? Do i need that in there as well? I am really trying for an answer here. If i am wasting my time trying to get a solution here can some one let me know so i can just start playing the damn game?

Thanks for the reply Slaughter, I have already checked the official site, and the Invision site, and the ufomods.com site but i got the same info. I have tried this no less than 22 times, restarting games, finishing the 1st mission and still finding out that it doesn't work. What am i doing wrong people?

No Takers? Fine, i will explain what i have got so far..... Followed all the details in the Modding guide by ShadoWarrior, i have got the localization unpacked and renamed a couple of troops to my liking. Put the appropriate folder, mod\Localization\system\Pack.txt in the AS directory and done the vfstool mk mod.vfs 4096 7000 64 1, and vfstool in mod.vfs mod, which worked. I now have a 309kb mod.vfs file in the AS directory, ran the program, finished the first mission and tried to hire my new troops but they didn't come up. The old names that i supposedly replaced still come up. Frustrating. Any help PLEASE...

Hello everyone, Noob here and I have a question. I have checked the other posts re: this topic and didn't find anything. Hence this thread. O.K. played AM with mixed feelings, managed to get my name in amongst the troops by modding the names, and this made it a little more fun. After hearing of AS, i immediately dropped AM and bought AS. Wicked, 100 times better than AM. But i was just in the middle of modding the troops to some of my own names, using the SN shocktroopers name change program and i am a bit confused as to how it ties in with the described name changing method in the modding guides. Can these two programs be used in conjunction with each other? Are they individual? Or do you have to juggle the 2 together to make it work. All i want to do is put my name in amongst the troops. (and yes, i have read the other threads but couldn't find any relevant info) Any light on the subject would be greatly appreciated. Cheers everyone
