Renamer

Here at Valhalla, we create many customized NPCs. Due to these NPCs being unsupported by retail's standards, their names will only show as “NPC.”
Renamer is an addon that is able to alter the names of these NPCs on your client.
With it, you can make notes of what an NPC is by changing it's name, or perhaps you would like to see their names as intended by the developers here.

How to use Renamer (Ashita)

HOW TO USE THIS ADDON:
  
  1. First place the ashita version of renamer in your \Scripts\Addons\ directory.
  2. Now place a list file (Valhalla.lua above) into \Scripts\Addons\renamer\lists\ 
  3. Load the addon in the game:
  
    /addon load renamer
  This will load the addon, but in an inactive state.

    /renamer load valhalla
  This loads the list of objects to rename from the specified file and activates the addon.
  To change to a different list simply input the command again using another file name.

TO AUTO LOAD:
  Place the above commands (both of them) in your default script for your ashita profile.
  Open \Scripts\Default.txt with a text editor.
  Add the two commands into the file and save. Now it will automatically load every time you log in!

OTHER COMMANDS:
    /renamer status
  Will display the currently loaded name list file, if any.

    /renamer stop
    /renamer unload
  Either of these will tell the addon to cease renaming objects.
