Oh man this is exactly the kind of mod I've always wanted for 4X games! I really hope something like this eventually gets made for some others (Civ games, the Warhammer Gladius game, etc). Do you think it would be difficult to transfer it over to other games? I'm trying to get into modding but I have no idea where to even start lol

Great mod! It really makes the game much more immersive. Thank you!

Matopicus
Thank you for looking into it
What games occupy your time these days?

I haven't even had this game installed in years. I'll have to install it and see whats updated and make the changes then.

Matopicus great mod. The issue i'm having is every time i reload a game, the units i've named have an auto-generated name replacing them. Is there a way to keep the "renamed" units constant through a saved reload?
Great Work

@sepruecom The removing all the action buttons bug can be fixed by doing the whole: loading all the mods, going back to main menu and then loading all the mods again.

No, currently thatwasn't a feature that was added.

Is there a way for me to name battalions and companies? I can't find a way to do so

guess I have to take my previous comment back. For some weird reason, every time I load a game I have to change the modding config in order to get all the GUI elements displayed. So it was "somewhat" random that removing your mod helped...

unfortunaltely it appears this mod removes all the action buttons of units. No starting excavations, satelites, etc...

I'd like it if we could have "1st Company, 1st Batallion... 2nd Company, 1st Battallion... 1st Company, 2nd Batallion"... In other words, companies are numbered only within their battalion.

wow, talk about mod i never realized how bad i wanted, hah. neat! will try this out next game fosho~

This is great but in the late game the company number suffixes are incorrect, for example "13st" instead of "13th"

rfmacros, that's just a problem with the game outright. While I doubt it was intentional, this game is not all that friendly when it comes to mods. It requires you to launch the mods (not the game session outright), exit and relaunch with the mods you want for the game session to properly work. It's irritating, but the fix is very simple.

Ok, update here. I seem to be having an issue with ALL mods, where I have to enable, disable and then enable them again before each game. This has NOTHING to do with your specific mod and I look forward to using it in the future :)

@AlphaBravo For whatever reason a few people (very few) have had issues with steam flipping the libraries to not be included in the config file. Read this and see if it helps resolve your problem.

Oh yeah and i tried using it with and without rising tide, didnt work(((. I'm suspecting that it might be that the whole game is in russian (coz i downloaded it from russian steam... obviously) and in order for the mod to work I need to switch it to English, i'l look into that

Thanks for your response. Tried unsubscribing and subscribing again, tried deleting and reinstaling the whole game - didnt work. Don't use any additional mods (cause this one, in my opinion, is the most needed improvement in the game). As you pointed out, the fix which i used (and which didnt work), was a fix a found browsing a different mod. It was to convert your Windows user name to UTF, because if it is written with non-English alphabet (i.e. Russian) the system fails to convert it to "the language it understands" (i assume its UTF) properly and therefore the wholle think doesnt work.

@rfmacros I have Rising Tide and it works fine for me. Your the first one since the game came out to say it wasn't working with it.

@AlphaBravo "because its not in English" Not sure where you got that from but its in english. You might be looking ata different mod. As to why it doesn't work for you on your computer, sometimes steam doesn't play nice. Try unsuibscribing restart steam and re-subscribe. You've already tried it on two computers and it worked on the second one but not yours. It could be a conflict with another mod or something with steam.

Also does not work with RT, just like Leonard Nemoy quotes. Maybe they conflict with one of my other mods?

doesnt work for me, idk why. tried everything - even changing my windows user name to UTF because its not in English. Still a good mod, tried playing it on a different pc

does this work with immersive armies?

Thankyou, I always thought these pioneering people would take pride in naming their unit or organizations. the Texas Rangers are a real life example of that early pionieering spirit.

"i will name my first xeno(phobe)titan donald, cuz u can't stump the trump." Oh gods no!

THANK YOU i always thought it was a bit stupid from fireaxis to remove that feature when they re-skinned civ 5, ehm, "made" BE, i will name my first xeno(phobe)titan donald, cuz u can't stump the trump.

Cool, glad you like it. I hope to get some additional time on it over this week that will hopefully give me enough time to add the specializations to it.

Just wanted to say thanks for making this mod. I've been using it for some time now. Without it, I really struggle to enjoy playing BE, I have a thing about being able to name my units. This mod adds so much to the roleplaying aspect, which this game sorely needs. Keep up the awesome work!

I use it with Immersive

Does anyone by chance know if this works with Immersive Armies?

Thanks man!!

Thanks m8!

Thanks for the RS update!!!!!

Seems to be a bug with the unit highlighting, I'll see if i can get a patch out for that tomorrow.

just finished a game and it worked for RT

I'm working on updating as we speak. I had to redo some things but i'll have a patch out hopefully this week.

Any info when you will release it for rising tide?

Update it for Rising tide please!

Cannot wait to see in Rising Tide, This is one of my 'have to have' mods.

I plan on making it work with the expansion.
regarding the specialization i planned on it but life had other things for me to do. When the exansion comes out i'll revisit and see how much time i have then to add new features.

Will this also work with Rising Tide ?

OMG!!!!!

love the mod, but noticed one of my unit's called "Zues" where I assume it was supposed to be "Zeus". Not sure what Zues is. just a heads up

if it doesn't work with the expansion i'll do what i can to make it work.

are you planning on making this compatable with the comming expansion or add a different version onto workshop?

sucks dude. also Arty is a Battery not a company other wise awesome

@evilknight23 I can't. I tried and the only way of doing it is a long painful process that is prone to inconsistent bugs. For whatever reason firaxis thought it was a good idea in Civ5 to get new unit ids when you upgrade your units. With ids changing and no hooks into the process you can't keep records of even names of units once there updated.

need this for civ 5

The option to Rename things your self would be cool I love this mod the way it is just a suggestion for later modding also i get kills with them and they dont show all my units say 0 kills no matter how many kills they get unless its only vs military units cause they killed aliens so idk if that is different but the mod is cool thank you
