Hi guys! I’ve been a fan of this series ever since it came out. But, playing the same 12 MySims games since 2007 can make you want a new experience. So, I’ve been working on modding MySims PC.

I have very little experience in coding so it’s been kind of difficult to figure out, especially since this game is sadly not popular enough to have programs or tutorials specifically for modding it.

Currently, I am working on replacing sims in the game with new sims. I have figured out how to change their clothes, hair, facial features, voice, interests, building blocks, and dialogue.

However, I can’t figure out how to change the name, backstory, and house name. I have tried: - adding *their name* to their characterdef file like in PlayerDef (which does nothing - editing the mspc_eng_us.xml file (which also does noting) - editing the mspc_eng_us.str file (which just crashes the game when i open it)

I don’t know if anybody checks this, but if you have anything that’d help, please lmk. i have a feeling it has something to do with the mspc_eng_us.str file but i just can’t figure out how to properly edit it
