Replace the Rand Girl Names list?
« on: July 22, 2010, 07:39:57 AM »
I've been using my "Slurry Pack" of names for some time now and have grown to quite like it. Anyway, I was wondering what the consensus would be on replacing the default name pack packaged with the game to use the Slurry Pack instead of the current list of Japanese names.
Here is the topic for my Slurry Pack, where you can download and view it.

There are some rather odd names in the Slurry Pack since they're taken from a wide variety of world cultures, but I think that's actually somewhat fitting with the nature of Crossgate connecting to different dimensions.

I vote we rename it to something more aesthetically pleasing than "The Slurry Pack," but as for using it, I'm fully behind that.

Wow, I'm the only one keeping the Japanese Names.  :D

<Goes and archives that before he loses it in the next update>

But in seriousness, this actually makes a lot of sense. To bad the vast majority of the unique girls come from Japan. (Option to give Uniques random names?)

As the default included with the game it won't have a name as such.

I thought it would be nice to have quasi-uniques when the town wards get done
like girls who can only be recruited from specific wards or through ward events

they'd have skills in certain ranges, depending on their "class", a random name, and they'd draw pics from a random folder in the "characters" dir, but once you got a temple/slums/docks girl from from folder x, you would not get another (ward) girl from the same folder

Update my one contribution to the game?
I would probably say yes, it's time to upgrade.
As I do have the original file so I can always go and reuse it if I want to.

All right, Slurry Pack it is. I'll include the Japanese random name pack as well in a separate file which can be renamed to use.

The line between lunacy and genious is very thin.

We don't really have support for mutiple name pools in the game. Might be able to fudge it in Lua once I finish adding the event hooks.
