DefaultNameList

[RJDoute]

So today I decided to delve into the DefaultNameList.ini and add custom names. Needless to say my 8 year old and I couldn't come up with nearly as many names as the original file and certainly not all of the countries, so my list is significantly shorter. When I start a new game, I occasionally get the soldiers I named, but sprinkled in are still some of the default names. These names do NOT exist in the .ini file at all, I've deleted everything but the names I want. Why am I still getting random default names? Any suggestions? Here's what my file looks like:

(Don't make fun of these ridiculous names :P)

 

So with that being the entirety of my DefaultNameList.ini file, why am I still getting random russians?

What I see at the first sight is, you aren't using names correctly. Is it for a purpose of having the first and the last name connected together and see the full name in tactical combat?

 

I would stick to syntax m_arrAmFFirstNames="Brittany" ... m_arrAmLastNames="Freeman", separated the first and the last.

 

Also if you've edited DefaultNameList.ini, you will have to delete XComNameList.ini in your user documents (Users\YourName\Documents\My Games\XCOM - Enemy Unknown\XComGame\Config\) so it gets recreated from edited default.
