I will forward the request/suggestion to add a disable option for names in the game. Thank you for the feedback!
Hey thanks, I also would love to know why they decided to change it to some kind of serialized data dump compared to the original text format. Until I started poking at it with a hex editor I was convinced that it was just the game loading my name improperly.
There also appears to be some problems with the "face in the game" backers, they appear to all have the right custom mugshot path, but the custom face sprite loaded by the game is incorrect, example:
Adrian AwYoung is n° 119715, uses mugshot 125987, his face is on collumn 2, row 32 of the special entities sprite sheet, but he gets the face of Lewis McGann collumn 2, row 14.
Chris Delay is n° 32979, uses mugshot 2, his face is on collumn 1, row 1, but he gets the face of Loki Cruden collumn 3, row 9.
As for me, I'm 114808, and should be: body 4, scale 1, head 20, skin color 0xfed89aff, but I'm also not supposed to have a nickname, and I somehow was given the nickname of Ben Rea (245334) "Reggae"
