RenameNPCs

A MelonLoader mod for Schedule 1 (v0.4.3) that lets you rename any NPC in the game. Custom names persist across sessions and appear everywhere: name tags, dialogue, phone contacts, and map markers.

Features

• Rename any NPC - Press N while looking at an NPC to open the rename dialog
• Persistent names - Custom names are saved and restored between sessions
• Full integration - Names update on name tags, dialogue, phone contacts, and map POIs
• Visual prompt - Shows "N To rename" when looking at an NPC
• Toggle on/off - Enable or disable the mod

Installation

1. Install MelonLoader for Schedule 1
2. Copy RenameNPCs.dll to your Mods folder

Usage

1. Look at any NPC within range
2. A "N To rename" prompt will appear
3. Press N to open the rename dialog
4. Enter a new name (supports "First" or "First Last" format)
5. The name will be applied everywhere immediately

Configuration

After first run, a config section is created in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg:

Options

Multiplayer

Custom names are stored locally and only apply client-side. In multiplayer, all players need the same [RenameNPCs_Names] entries in their config files to see matching names. Share your config or coordinate entries to stay in sync.

Bulk Renaming via Config

Instead of renaming NPCs one-by-one in-game, you can edit UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg directly. Add entries under the [RenameNPCs_Names] section using the format npc_id = "First|Last". Changes apply on next scene load.
