changing name of currency

[Javolenus]

Hi There,

I got a simple question: is it possible to change the name of the currency used in the game? I'd like to change 'Denari' into something esle (maybe 'Crowns' or 'Sovereigns' or 'Shillings' or something) but do not know if this is possible. Which file would I need to edit to achieve this? Many thanks in advance for replies!

Open module_strings.py and find lines:

("1_denar", "1 denar"),
("reg1_denars", "{reg1} denars"),

Replace it with:

("1_denar", "1 crowns"),
("reg1_denars", "{reg1} crowns"),

FYI - Kolba's change will do most of it, but there are a lot of places in dialogs or game menu's it still has denars unfortunately.  I had to search through all these and replace them and I think I also had to make a us.csv english language file to rename one or two things in the user interface.

Hi There and thanks for the info. I've been into the Menu, Strings and Dialogue files and made the necessary changes. Now I'll start up the game and see if everythnig has worked out OK. Hope so! But, yes, you're right - 'denars' crops up a million times in direct speech.

I have a nice way to search those unchanged names. Just press ALT+F3 and put in box "denar". You'll see list of places, just click on one of them .
