Replaces the generic Stalker names for mercs with the codename format used in Metal Gear Solid.
I never liked how the seemingly professional mercenaries used normal Stalker names like common bandits. This mod replaces the regular naming system with a two part codename where the first part is usually an adjective (Red, Angry, Brutal etc) and the second part is a creature (Snake, Wolf, Bear, Scorpion, Fly, Lizard.
There 100 variations of the first part and 150 of the second part, meaning that it's very unlikely that you will ever see two characters with the same name, if it's even possible.
Most of the credit goes to indyora for his European UNISG Names, which I based this on. I have made a version that is compatible with LTTZ: Director's Cut, which should also by extension make it compatible with European UNISG Names. Install this mod after those and only use one of the two versions.
This is English only for now as a translation to Russian would present problems that would require me to essentially remake the mod entirely because of the need for gender congruence between the two parts of the codename. For example the codename Strong Fly would need to be Сильная Муха, but just translating the words in the mod would generate Сильный Муха instead. I'm also not fully fluent in Russian, meaning that my translation would have a lot of errors. I might do a Russian version if someone else translates the words.
Anyone is free to do anything with this mod, you can translate and reupload it, include it in a pack or whatever, I don't care.

This is awesome
Thanks for uploading :D
it is not necessary to do a Russian translation. in Russian, many names will simply sound ridiculous, such as a Strong Fly
Haha, but that is also true for the English version. The nature of the random generation will make some combinations obviously comical, which is a part of the charm in my opinion.
Well in Call of Duty Modern Warfare Trilogy (the "original") you have a badass SAS called Soap, so yeah comical is still awesome.
Soap normal pacan
"Собачий Пулемёт"
Can't wait to see my old friends Assassin Chicken, and Scowling Inchworm in The Zone.
This makes it more immersive. Nice
***** Buffalo to base, going dark, over.
lul
Code names are cool.
Is there a DLX ready version too? Im too brainlet to use make one myself...
What do you mean?
DLTX/DLX would be really nice because it'd allow this mod to be compatible with other mods that alter system.ltx. Right now, it's one or the other.
Yeeees! I will use this right away! You rock!
I love this, sadly it borked my game. It is incompatible with several of my mods R.I.P.
Is this compatible with 1.5.2?
