Can you change the effects/strings of hero stats?

Is it possible? I want to create and RPG with 1 hero, but the 3 stats dont cut it, I was planning on making a seperate leaderboard system to show the extra stats, but is it possible to change what the stats do / say? If so where is this file, and is it able to be loaded into the map.

Thanks

No the effects are hardcoded, and the strings I think are preloaded its one in Commandstrings I think.

My map is doing something like what you're describing:

I've created a series of extra "external" stats, and store them in a leaderboard as separate variables. Feel free to poke around my code (download the most recent demo) to get a sense of what I'm doing. Hope you like work, though - this is time consuming, laborious, and heavily scripted. Let me know if you have any questions.

If, on the other hand, you want to change the *behavior* of the three basic stats, that's stored in one of the text files (one of the two miscdata.txt files perhaps?). You can alter that, but it won't be playable in multiplayer. Not even 100% sure that will be playable in single player without having the user mpq edit.

What about just the strings alone? Is it for sure in a miscdata? I only see the change of what each stat adds....
