Hello everone, thanks for stopping by:

soo the thing is i want to rename my Fort as it didn't save the name i gave it on embark (probably left without saving it)
Is there an easy way to Edit the saves? If yes, plz give me an instruction-for-idiots (cause i'll need that lvl when it comes to editing saves) or do i have to live with the epic name "Minedaub"

Thanks in advance

You could probably use DFHack's gui/gm-editor.

Aye, without DFHack there's no way in the base game to do so. I have no idea how to do it with DFHack, though. Someone in that thread may be able to help you, though.

This should work:

Find site_id in the list shown by entering command "gui/gm-editor ui" and press 'i' to jump to your site info. Then press enter on "name" (the first entry.) Then you can edit "words" and "parts of speech" by pressing enter on those. (Press Esc to go back to previous pages.)

You'll need to know the numbers that represent the words you want. I wrote a small script that prints all of those to gamelog.txt (since there are too many to fit in the console):

Code: (Enter this command in the dfhack console) [Select]

:lua for k,v in ipairs(df.global.world.raws.language.words) do dfhack.gui.writeToGamelog(k.." = "..v.word) end
Result will look like this near the bottom of gamelog.txt in your DF folder:

Code: [Select]

0 = ABBEY
1 = ACE
2 = ACT
3 = AFTER
...
Parts of speech will let you change what form the word is in (e.g., walk or walked.)
