I'm having trouble modding FlavorText.xml in Dark Avatar. In Dread Lords it was easy - just find the speaker ID with the race number you are looking for and change the text. However, the FlavorText.xml file for DA is different. It adds a Name attribute to the Speaker and Listener tags.

I have replaced all the standard game races with ones of my own design. If I am modifying the text, what should I put in for this name attribute? Do I use the ShortEmpireName from RaceConfig.xml, or is it something from English.str? I've tried some different things with no success. Either it crashes DA, or it uses the generic text instead of the race-specific text.

Speaking of generic text, in the DA version of FlavorText.xml the ID for the generic Speaker or Listener is 10. Since race 10 in DA is the Korath Clan, shouldn't the generic ID be 12?

Thanks,

Matt
