I made a NOD WF for a map I'm working on and I needed to edit the string table, which is easy enough, but when I exported the package from the commando editor as a mix the strings.tbd file did not seem to get exported, however if I export as a pkg file it works fine.

Is there some way to fix this that does not involve putting my string file in the data folder?

I really could use some help on this one I don't want to have to use the airstrip EVA's on a NOD WF.

Thanks.

Custom strings.tdb files only work in .pkg mods as far as I am aware.

Im also aware that it works on .mix

As i remember a map having a nod WF saying like
Warning Nod Weapons factory distruction imminent


Decent people

That might have just placed a custom strings.tdb in the data folder though, which is a messy way of doing it as another map which also has its own strings.tdb would then overwrite your maps strings.tdb with its own and your strings are borked.

Well actually on mutationRedux, which I believe comes with renguard, the silo strings were edited to fix the sounds.

so there must be some way to do it.

If you locate the strings.tdb file in the .pkg, just import them into the compiled .mix file using XCC or RenEX?
