Default Re: National start and end dates

Changing the names in game means editting a couple of files (one easy, one a little more complicated):

1. The Mobhack .ini file

Found in folder:
...\Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\WinSPMBT\MOBHack

File = mhMBT.ini

Edit with notepad or a similar text editor (NOT a Word Processor)

This allows you to change the names of Countries (in some places in the game) and (if necessary) the names of unit classes.

2. The MBT .exe itself (MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE CHANGING!!!)

Found in the main folder - winSPMBT.exe

Edit this with a hexeditor (eg HxD).

Replace all occurences of old name with new one - PLEASE NOTE: The new name MUST be the same length as the old! ie "Denmark" must be replaced by a 7 letter name.

Good luck!
