Can you rename your character?


Recommended Posts

In Skyrim there were several options for this, but in FO4 it seems impossible. Console commands doesn't work, and I haven't found a mod that works. So how? If it's an MCM feature, that would work.

 

Edit: After feeling stubborn and some more googling, I found a smooth solution that doesn't mess up your stats. Type player.showspecialmenu in the console and you will be able to type a new name. Now the R button may be greyed out if you've gained stats since starting out, but just press R anyway and you don't need to lower your stats. I'm leaving this here because it's not something obvious that everyone might have figured out.

You can do it by using the specialmenu. In game go into 3rd person, open the console and click on your character (or type in "prid 14" and enter). Type in "showspecialmenu" (without the quotes and enter). This brings up the specialmenu from the beginning. Close the console. Now you can change "your" name. I believe you will have to enter after you typed in the new name. Do nothing with the special points. To close the specialmenu open the console again and type in "hidemenu specialmenu". Again without the quotes. And you are done.
