Hmm, ok so its broken hehe. I don't think its far off but it seems to have the names lists confused.
Don't worry about looking at this if you haven't got time, I am sure you have better things to do.
Thanks. I was able to find bug from core NPC Maker extension which prevented custom names to be generated and it only ouput build-in fantasy male names. You should get the newest version first: NPC Maker (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?20807-SW-NPC-Maker-extension).
Secondly I have attached sample extension which includes your german names and more. The one important difference is that when you extend names you can do it as addon extension for NPC Maker, and thus you don't need to copy the original code. This helps you to keep up with new NPC Maker version without needing to update your extension all the time. You need to enable both of these extension: "SW NPC Maker" and "SW NPC Maker addon - German names" and you will have your german names provided
In this addon approach you need to include only one file: extension.xml and do all your changes there. I attached minimized version of the file below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root version="3.0">
<properties>
<name>SW NPC Maker - German names</name>
<version>0.1</version>
<author>Ikael</author>
<description>Name addon</description>
</properties>
<base>
<script name="NameListAddition">
aGermanSurnames = {
"Müller",
"Schmidt",
"Schneider",
}
aGermanMale = {
"Achim",
"Adolf",
"Albrecht",
}
aGermanFemale = {
"Achima",
"Ada",
"Adala",
}
function onInit()
NameMaker.registerNameList("German male", aGermanMale, aGermanSurnames)
NameMaker.registerNameList("German female", aGermanFemale, aGermanSurnames)
end
</script>
</base>
</root>
Here we have declared <script name="NameListAddition"> which contains all the addon code. Name of the script (NameListAddition) MUST be unique between ALL extensions used. Never use too simple names or you might cause script conflicts. Within script we define 3 list of names: 1) german surnames, 2) german male names, 3) german female names and in onInit function we register them using:
NameMaker.registerNameList("German male", aGermanMale, aGermanSurnames)
The first argument is the name of the name set which will be displayed in the name maker dropdown. Second and third arguments are name lists which we defined. Here we register two lists which will general full german names containing first and surname, such as "Ada Schmidt". If you want to have only first names you can remove the aGermanSurnames part from the registration.
