Hi Guys, very new to editing, How can I change a Teams name??

Do you know how to extract files from the data.gob file?

No idee, please advise, hopefully quick learner

Get Biggui from HERE

Use Biggui to extract the be2970b0ada8e42cf891ce60ffe69575.xml file from the data.gob file which is in your Rugby 08\data location.

Then the following will apply:

The be29.xml that Rugby 06 use don't have the "StringTableId" thing and those team names you can change simply by changing the "TeamName" bit.So I edited the Rugby 08 be29.xml file to look like the 06 one without the "StringTableId" part and found that it worked like a gem!

Here is a preview of a default 08 one:

<team Index="25" Active="yes" Type="international" CodeId="ID_WALES" FeGroup="international" StringTableId="1068" TeamName="Wales" Abbreviation="WAL" HomeColour="180,36,8,255" AwayColour="243,243,243,255" Logo="wal" />

Now all you have to do is to remove the StringTableId="1068" part from that to look like this:

<team Index="25" Active="yes" Type="international" CodeId="ID_WALES" FeGroup="international" TeamName="Wales" Abbreviation="WAL" HomeColour="180,36,8,255" AwayColour="243,243,243,255" Logo="wal" />

Now the TeamName="Wales" becomes the important part, this is now the text of the name of the team that you will see ingame.And the best part is if you edit the .english file so the text "Wales" don't appear in it anymore, the name "Wales" will still appear ingame.

Hope this helps you

When I applied the MUP this file be2970b0ada8e42cf891ce60ffe69575.xml is in my root directory of Rugby 08. Can I change it there? Do I need to import it somewhere? Or is it going to work when I change it there? Really thanks or your help.

Yeah if you already have a patch installed, just edit the be2.xml file that came with the patch.
