Alright I've finally started making some progress. 
What I'm gonna do is since every general usually has two or more IDs I'm just gonna change the dialogue to their alternate IDs, that way I can remove generals from the shop and also not change the game too much. Don't edit Generals that you have already done. You will know this if you see the name again and it says "inshop" "0" |

After editing dialogues for Europe missions, they haven't crashed, so I'm gonna concentrate on completely doing Europe before I do Pacific. Today I'm gonna try to map edit and see how it goes. |

Map editing is quite difficult, but it can be done. Good luck modding! I am taking a break from moding and possibly the fourm for the next week. |

How to change the name and photo of a Apk. - I use Apk editor to replace game iconic images but you can use MT manger as well.
- Go to simple edit/common edit and replace the name
- After replacing the name; extract the icon images to your photo editor app
- Erase the file and import your new image and save as the icon
- Add your icon to the app and bulid
MT MANAGER- Go to resources arc and click string, you will find the app name and replace it. It is the files next to assets.
- Change the name of the string from World conquer 4 to whatever you wanr.
- For images find the "drawable files" and extrat a icon and replace it similar to the top.
- MAKE SURE YOUR REPLACED THE ICON IN ALL DRAWABLES FILES!
- When your are done click replace and sign.

How to change Unit Skins:- First you extract the old unit skins you want to change like tanks, infantry and etc.
- Get a Photoshop editor app and open the file
- Find cool skins and replace them for example like Morar Anderi's unit skins
- Remove the unit you want to change like assault infantry
- Add your updated infantry and save (make sure the game mechanics are the same as the one you are changing!)
I would like to thank Saltin for pinning this theard!

Darth Vader Idk if someone said it before but you don't need to speak chinese to find the units in the .json files. Each unit has a unique code in the stringtable.ini and it's very easy to find it using that instead of its Chinese name

Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, most of the units also have an english name in "EName", especially generals. For units, even if you don't understand Chinese you can just do "guesstimates" about where they're placed since their order is the exact same as in the game. However, if you don't want to switch back and forth between English stringtables and json files you could also just use google translate

It's better than going to google translate everytime, which I don't see how much more efficient it is than just looking at another tab/piece of paper

Some useful websites for modding : hexed.it (online hex editor. Using hex editors online is 10x easier than doing it on mobile. You can extract portions of code to files, use your own files, and adjust line lengths, etc.) Google drive (if you're modding on Android, obviously) (this helps to move files from place to place) jsoneditoronline.org(online JSON editor, again, 10x easier than on mobile, allows you to do find and replace much easier than APK editor apps, exporting and importing files, and best of all, CLOUD SAVING, meaning you will never lose your progress, unless you open another file) |

Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, I just use Gboard and Apple Translate to select a name, copy, and translate it. Your list looks very promising and I will check it out indeed!
