Renaming Weapons

[Ronglar]

Hello Everybody. I was wondering if there are any mods or Console Commands that let you personally rename weapons in New Vegas. Thank you in advance for any help!

If you have NVSE installed, you can use the SetName command to change the name of items.

I have the script extender installed. So how exactly would I use the console command "ref.SetName name:string item:ref"? Type in "ref.SetName name:(new name) item:(original name)?

It's simple, you can select the object you wish to rename from the console with your mouse once open, and then type:

 

SetName "newname"

Remember the quotes. Instead, you could also provide the objects base id as the second parameter:

 

SetName "newname" baseid

Remember that this command changes the name of the base form, so every instance of the item will have it's name changed. :)

That's fine! Thanks a lot buddy!

Any way to make the change permanent?

You'd need a mod to use the function everytime the game loads.

 

Attaching something like this to a start enabled quest script should work.

ScriptName SetNameScript

Begin GameMode
    If GetGameLoaded
        SetName "new name" SomeBaseObject
    EndIf
End

How am I able to do this, please? Thanks in advance if you can help!
