EmptyNames [WOTC]

Description
Allows creating characters with a blank first or last name, and increases the character limit to 30. WOTC already allows deleting nicknames. Works for faction heroes but not for SPARKS.

Base game version

Compatibility:
Overwrites CustomizationManagerClass for all Soldier, ReaperSoldier, SkirmisherSoldier, and TemplarSoldier templates

This mod is safe to disable at any time and doing so will not invalidate the soldiers the mod was used to name.

How does this mod handle empty names? WotC Starting Soldiers isn't recognising any soldiers who have a blank first OR last name so I'm assuming this mod is adding a placeholder of some description into the blank name?

Same here, please could we get a fix?

I had the One Million Colours Mod as a conflict as well. After Disabling this mod fixed it for me, thank you for the fix.

Just finished a campaign with about 280 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up, this was super useful.

This mod conflicted with the mod, "One Million Colours." Disabling this mod fixed it. While both were enabled, I did not have access to the 'custom color' sliders in the soldier customization UI -- only the presets.

One thing that is odd is this worked perfect for me and 'Snake Eye's was just a nickname that showed up everywhere (because his real name is unknown - queue spooky music).... Then suddenly his name disappeared except in "soldier lists" or whatever. So I added a '.' for a surname and then his nickname showed up again in missions, but then it disappeared again. I've been testing so many mods though so... who knows.

I tried using an empty name but wasn't able to. No idea why.

It still works fine for me. What issues are you having, exactly?

Not working for me after TLP. Perhaps an update is needed?
