I would kill for some Icons to go with the names, alla Mass Effect N1-7 ranks Just a simple stylized set of letters and numbers say G1 A1 or something.
I've only had to edit the XComGame.int at Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XComGame\Localization\INT if that's what you mean. I didn't have to touch the one in MyGames so I assume the one in the game folder is the one that's trumped. I changed it by opening it up in Microsoft Word so I didn't need to download any other program in order to edit it.
Used this thankfully before. Now that I updated to Elite Soldier Pack + Slingshot Pack it isn't working for me anymore.. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! Great Mod! Take Care EDIT: GOT IT!
How did you solve that? I know there's a way to do it with the mod manager thanks to Dubious' post in the Soldier ranks mod (http://xcom.nexusmods.com/mods/31) But I was curious if there's simply another INT file you can edit directly without creating a mod?
Edit: Just in case anyone else is courious, I just had to mimic my changes in the XComGame.int located in Documents\My Games\XCOM - Enemy Unknown\XComGame\Localization\INT
Not sure if this one trumps the other and only have to change one, I just put in what I wanted in both just in case.

In order to edit your INT you need to open it with Notepad or Microsoft Word. It's located here XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XComGame\Localization\INT
It's XComGame.int
Open it up press Ctrl+F and search for m_aRankNames. That will get you to the section where you can edit the rank names. Alternatively, to make it easier for you, you can just replace that section with this
m_aRankNames[0]=Grade Zero m_aRankNames[1]=Grade One m_aRankNames[2]=Grade Two m_aRankNames[3]=Grade Three m_aRankNames[4]=Grade Four m_aRankNames[5]=Grade Five m_aRankNames[6]=Grade Six m_aRankNames[7]=Grade Seven m_aRankAbbr[0]=N0. m_aRankAbbr[1]=N1. m_aRankAbbr[2]=N2. m_aRankAbbr[3]=N3. m_aRankAbbr[4]=N4. m_aRankAbbr[5]=N5. m_aRankAbbr[6]=N6. m_aRankAbbr[7]=N7.
Darn, this mod would be perfect for my own tastes if G# was instead N#. Been looking for a way to get a touch more Mass Effect flavor in my XCOM game. My colonel rank sniper deserves her N7 designation x3 Great mod all the same.
Would anyone be able to shed any light on editing an INT file once downloaded, solely for that purpose?
