[Feature Request] custom mod names in mod chooser #228

Open mooreye opened 1 year ago

mooreye commented 1 year ago

The "pretty" mod names (for example Dimension of the Past) seem to be hardcoded into the engine only for the official expansions and for the officially downloadable mods. It would be nice if you could for example place a custom name.txt file in a mod's subdirectory with a pretty name to show in the mod chooser for a given mod.

To use your own mod name, put a text file in the mod directory called descript.ion. The first non-empty line is used as the mod name. https://github.com/andrei-drexler/ironwail/blob/5fab9da81d403c3735d2cdfc9ee0aa95b498814e/Quake/host_cmd.c#L1084
