[GUIDE] Character Name Changing
« on: January 30, 2011, 10:25:18 pm »

ATTENTION:
This guide is for old version of cRPG, don't use it any more (with 0.220 and up)

-Vargas

For those who have been asking on how to do it, and of course the beloved new players.

Steps:

1) Create another character in-game and name it w/e you want to change your name to.
*NOTE: Don't delete your the character with the old name just in case you still want to be playing during the time the name change is PENDING.
2) Join a cRPG server with character that has the new name.
3) Navigate to your character creation page (c-rpg.net).
4) Scroll down until you notice "Change your name to:" w/ a drop-down box next to it.
*NOTE: For those with the cool-looking character creation page (EYE-CANDY), navigate to the "Settings" tab at the top.
5) Click the drop-down box and click on the name of the character you created for the name change and click the "Change your name to:" box.

The drop-down box changes to something along the lines of "name change pending". Once your name has been changed, you can no longer login with the old name and have to login with that new name from then on, or until you decide to change the name again.

**NOTE: Namechanges are only allowed for either fixing typos or adding / changing clantags. It should usually happen in 5-24 hours.
               Whining about it not being fast enough extends it to a week. It also costs 1000 gold to apply for a name change.

I thought I applied for name change and it wasn't true, watch for this message:

Warning: name change pending

I think the problem was that in the eye-candy mod there's a "save" button, I chose the name and press save instead of the "Change your name to". Be sure to press this button, if you see the message in red, it will get done.

Hmm, if we retire a character can we also change the name then, even though it is not a typo nor clan tag?
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

chadz had promised free name changes (typo, clan tag) for retirees for awhile now but I haven't seen anything of the sort yet.

There's not much on it atm. I'll wait until the basic guides of cRPG are put on there first. And thanks for the support.

Haha, alright. Due to popular demand, I've gone ahead and added this guide to Wiki under "Optional Reading".
