Kevlar Axis Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Is there any way to do this? So far all I've been able to find is this: <property name="DescriptionKey" value="rocketLauncherPartsGroupDesc"/> This is just an example, but any item that I've found that has a description in game has this line, with a value reference which I'm unsure of where it comes from. Is this a hard-coded thing? I'd like to be able to add descriptions to things to be able to inform players of exactly what the item does or teaches, things that just seeing the stats doesn't do (E.g. Coffee doesn't tell you how much insulation it provides until after you drink it, which isn't a big deal but I'd like to be able to add that kind of information in).

Kevlar Axis Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Does no one know the answer to this, or is my question not clear enough? Perhaps this is a non-issue for most; common knowledge that I may be ignorant of? I haven't done any modding in A13, only in A12 and even then I'm not that experienced.

Cork55 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 That info is not accessible at the moment. It would be nice if they opened up the description file one day. Having custom items with no description is not very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kage Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Last I read there wasn't a way to edit the description but then again, I read where somebody has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodabba Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Here's what I wrote in another thread. From my understanding, item descriptions can only be changed/added using a 3rd party program like sd2dx. Can someone verify if this is correct?

Doombringer101 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Matite confirmed that altered descriptions are working with SDX. I do not think we have any other way to modify or add new ones currently but some enterprising modder may have come up with a way to do it outside SDX.

Kevlar Axis Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 What a seemingly simple thing, too bad it's hard coded. I don't think I want to get into using 3rd party programs, seems like there would be plenty of potential for error on my end. Thank you all for your help.

Killermoench Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 with the Unity Assets Bundle Extractor can extract the localization file, then you can edit it and insert it with the tool again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graebeard Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Any further help on this question? I have the Unity Assets Bundle Extractor, but what file should I be looking for ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 What are you trying to do? Thread is old and likely outdated. There is a localization.txt file in data/config for descriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
