				 Changing System Names 
 Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere. 
I've read the FAQ, manual and searched the boards, but can someone tell me how to  rename my system names   ingame?
 
I'm playing Space Empires IV Gold 1.9.1 
Is it possible or do I need to edit the gamefiles or something?     
Any help appreciated!!

				 Re: Changing System Names 
 Can't do it. You can rename planets, though. Just hit N or the 'Name' icon with the planet (or ship) selected...
 having said that, you can edit the systemnames.txt  (or something like that) file to give your games the 'feel' you're looking for. There are lots of modd'ed system names files floating around out there, ranging from the actual stars we know to the fantastical...
 
 I'm sure the links thread has some leads on where to find them...
 
 Thanks,
 
 Alarik

 There's an anti-Narf campaign? News to me, but then most things are.

				 Re: Changing System Names 
 ...I hope nobody takes my feuding with Fyron seriously. I certainly don't and last time I checked, neither did Fyron.

				 Re: Changing System Names 
 No, I'm not taking it seriously. I was just joking. I didn't intend to sound seriuos in my post. 
 Sorry if I upset anyone.
