I put an extensive amount of work into customizing the english.xml file for OOTP 17. When I attempted an import my game from 17 to 18, the changes I made to the english.xml file did not take. I'm not sure if the storylines.xml imported successfully or not. I think I saw an in-game menu option to reload the story lines database but I haven't tried that yet. I imagine other customized files, like injuries or nicknames, are easily plugged into 18 because they're basic .txt files.

So, the real question I'm wondering is can I simply replace the 18 english.xml file with the one I doctored for 17? Will that mess a lot of things up in 18? For example, will it eliminate features like the trainer coming out to check on a player, or the improved text-to-action timing in 3D? Are the new pieces in the 18 english.xml added on at the end of the document, so I could theoretically copy/paste over the old stuff that was present in 17? Any other ideas or workarounds?

Thanks...
