Changing names in savegames

Matrix · 20-07-2005, 16:53

I decompressed a savegame and changed my name "Matrix " into "Shagrath". (Space being character 00.) The savegame was loadable, but my name wasn't changed. The change in the savegame however is confirmed.

I also noticed in a DDPP savegame I was able to find "Matrix" and "Kemal", but not "Plux" or "Redwatch", while "Plux" (Stapel) is even still alive.

How come I can't find these names while they are actually there somewhere in the savegame.

The reason I try to figure this out is so that names can be changed whenever someone gets replaced. Now I sometimes can't remember who is who!
