Changing Attack Name

Hello, I have already looked under Gameplay Constants and Game Interface, but I can't find where I can change the attack name, like Chaos to Acid, where is it? Thanks in advanced.

At the object editor under abilities.

Umm actually no, you can change its name/description (i.e. "chaos") to anything else under "game interface" (.e. caption-text of almost any ingame button, default messages("not enough lumber"), and text bits like damage type "chaos" or armour types.

Also you will find there all paths of the files and icons that are used in the game interface. Its there where you can change i.e. the hero stats icons, too. You will find out as soon as you see the list.

I don't have the english WE so I cannot give the exact name of where you can find the game interface menue, but its in the same menu as gameplay constants and one item below those.

That's why I didn't say Game Interface when I read it earlier. ^_^

In fact, that IS in Game Interface. You must try harder, I am 100% certain that it is there, so try to find it.

Yes, Game Interface is huge and complex, and map makers should always change things on Gameplay Constants/Interface, people always appreciate maps that have this things changed (i cant understand why but ok :P). Also, people always get curious, and they make questions like this one. For example Wind and Cloud is a map that has almost everything in Gameplay Constants and Interface, and it shomehow makes the map "diferent".
I am not hoping that many people understand what I am trying to say, through I think that some might be enough intelligent to understand :lol:
