Proper Names

I know this can't be done with the GUI but maybe with some obscure branche of JASS it might be done.

How can I change the proper name of a hero through triggers?

Im 99.9% shure you cant I have look for things simular in common j and have found nothing but you can howver read the strings of the names used/and other map text via trigger.

Sorry, but can you make that a little clearer, I can't really understand it, though I did get the part about you being 99.9% sure of there being no way to do it...

Im pretty sure it can't be done, this isnt the first time someones asked and im sure the answer that time was, no

i have a little question about the proper names... so I will post it here.

Does each proper names is used once in a game ? If i am playing with 3 others players and we have taken all the same paladin heroe, does their proper names will be repeated ?! In my custom map, I want to make the proper names of the heroes (same for everyone) used once so each player will have a heroe with a different name.

if you have lets say two proper names, and 3 people choose the same hero then yes the proper name will be repeated between two people. And i am also 99.9999 percent sure it cant be done in triggers. (relating to eriond's question)

so if there's enough proper names for each players, it will be okay ?

Just make it so each hero can only be picked once, and make sure they all have different proper names.

yeah I know what you mean and it's an idea but I'll like if each time when player1/player2/player3/player4/etc plays the map, isn't always the same name! just for fun and to make the game a little different each time! :D possible if there's 12 different proper names ?

*bump!*

i need an answer plz
