That's my guess too. Sid's games all, or most, at least, have text files with that stuff. I remember hacking the heck out of my Civ2 game to make all the other Civs' names and conversations demeaning. I'd do it in Civ3, but the Firaxis team managed that well enough. (See 'your troops are bumbling about stealing chickens and annoying our women...')

File called "Text" may be in the file called PAK0
If not search through the rest of the paks.

You can always pull it out of the Parrot mod.

See if you can get the Opedia file to display the live graphic of the Dutch Artillery.
Opedia is inside the lang0 file
The live graphic has a suffix of .KFM

Hint: see how the Parrot Mod displays the Firaxis animation of the Parrot.

The mod I'm waiting for is for someone to figure out how to extract the Captain's Log into .txt format

Thought that was WaxonWaxov's pet project.

clue: it has to be encoded within the game save.

Yea, I've looked at the sav file with a text viewer, but it's all jibberish

I am working on it though
