Default an update...

Alright,

Just so people know, the class/deity names are not hardcoded, but are instead located within the eqstr_us.txt file in your titanium install directory. (not eqstr_en.txt, that file seems to no longer be used.) Editing this file is relatively easy, however you cannot do it in notepad as that program seems to change the format of the file so it can't be read by EQ. Instead use a string editor, or even the edit command in a windows DOS prompt works.

My discovery of this fact has raised a new question for me however. I am now having an issue with changing zone names. For instance, the Lavastorm Mountains are going to become The Blasted Lands. in eqstr_us.txt I change all instances of lavastorm mountains to "The Blasted Lands". Then, in Mysql Command Center, I go into the zone table and change the lavastorm longname to "The Blasted Lands". After restarting eqemu and going into the game, when i zone into lavastorm, i still get "Entering Lavastorm Mountains..." when i zone. The only visible chang ei actually see is after zoning it saying "You have entered the Blasted Lands." in the chat box. I know it is possible to change this, I have seen it in Shards of Dalaya ('Lair of Terris Thule' became 'The Dream') and in Scars of Nalgora. I have even chatted with Swish from Nalgora and he has helped me a tad, but this final step seems to escape me...
anyone have any ideas?
