Rename Companies!
Rename your company and your subsidiaries.

This mod enables you to rename your companies at any time in-game.
To rename a company, open the company detail window (from "Stocks", or by double clicking a company in "All Companies").
If you own the company, an edit button will appear next to the company name in the title bar.
Simply click the button and enter the new company name!

  • Find your Software Inc folder:
    If you own Software Inc on Steam, you can usually find it here:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Software Inc
  • Create/open the DLLMods folder:
    If a folder by this name already exists, open it. If not, create a folder with the exact name "DLLMods" (including capitalization).

FAQs:
  • Will this mod be uploaded to Steam Workshop?
    No. This is due to the Company.Name field in the game's source code being set to read-only, so the mod uses some libraries that are restricted in Workshop mods in order to write over the Company.Name field.
  • Why does the mod request access when I load it?
    This is for two reasons: (1) to be able to load image textures from disk, and (2) to access System.Reflections through Harmony so read-only fields may be modified.
  • Why is the source code included?
    Some users may have security concerns, in which case they can take the source code and build the mod themselves. Feel free to use the source code in any way you want!
  • Will this mod be updated in the future?
    Beyond regular bug fixes, any updates that could break the compatibility of this mod are likely to render it obsolete.
    As such, updates may be limited, but the mod should continue to function regardless.
  • Why is the maximum length of a company name 64 characters?
    This is due to the largest Unicode characters, such as Hangul, being large enough that 64 characters fills the title bar.
    If the company name was longer, the edit button could be pushed out of view.

  • Why can I set the name of my company to nothing?
    Why not?
