Item Name Change
Mega-Bear:
If you change only the uiName, won't datablocks like projectiles and sounds be overwritten if you have both the original and renamed gun?

Okay. So you're saying replace anything that says "Classic A. Rifle" with my own name? Wowz.
Anyway, I can't seem to modify it. I'm using WordPad to view/modify it. When I go to save it, it says I can't save the changes because the file is "Read-Only."
Help?

*Bump*
How do you get past the "Read-Only" problem?
Chrono:
1. Don't use WordPad.
2. You have to edit files outside of a zip.

Sorry to bump this topic but, I did it.

Chrono, you can still use WordPad to change the coding in a script. I achieved this by:
1. Changing the uiName
2. Saving the WordPad document SOMERWHERE ELSE (not trying to overwrite the original)
3. Then inserting it into the Skins_RiflesT2 with the same name, thus overwriting the original script WITHOUT encountering the "Read-Only" problem.
You are correct though on step your step 2, Chrono.
