DaBooch Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Hey all, not really sure if this goes here or if there is a solution (I have looked) but here goes. I'm using the Underground Hideout mod and I want to change the name of some generic vanilla items in the game. For example, in the bedroom, there is a "Weapons Locker" across from the bed. I would like to name this "Surplus Items for Sale". Is there a way using Console Commands to do this or do I have to use the GECK to edit the mod? Many thanks all...KCCO!

luthienanarion Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Target it in the console and enter: setname "Surplus Items for Sale" The change will not persist through saving and loading, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzisparis Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 You'd have to use the GECK for that. Load the cell where the locker is placed, double click it to open the 'Reference' window, click on 'Edit Base', then change the name. Problem is, every other instance (if any) of this base form will also be renamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luthienanarion Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Persistent name changes can only be done in-game for actors. If you want a single renamed container, duplicate it in the GECK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a single renamed container, duplicate it in the GECK.I'm not certain it would be that simple in this case. That particular container could be a link in an auto-sorter chain. Deleting it and replacing it with a duplicate may break that chain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
