Hi, I am new to the HoMM3 modding community. I am making a mod that simply changes the names of vanilla (and hopefully HotA) dwelling names, to for example change “Upg. Griffin Tower” to something like “Griffin Palace”. I am having trouble figuring out the format of the .json file, and while I have looked in HotA’s and “VCMI extras”'s translation files, “building.core.castle.castle.dwellingUpLvl1.description” or “building.core.castle.castle.dwellingUpLvl1.name” don’t really work. Why is this?
You don’t want to translate names, you want to change names. That’s the difference. You have to use “core:” command for this.
Check for example HotA’ balance submods as reference.

Thank you, I snooped around some other mods and got it working!
