Edit Names Mod: FILEKNOT - ANONZIP
Edit Names Mod Installation: Unzip edit_names.4.zip in <JOHN folder>/game folder.
Edit Names Mod Features:
You can access an "edit names" menu with a transparent button in the top right corner of the game (hover your mouse over there to see the button).
Changes are persistent so it will apply to all of your saves and replays (as long as the mod is installed).
It won't break your saves (no original files are modified). If you remove the mod (by deleting bibifoc folder) or play the next version without this mod, the game will just return to original names.
This mod will very probably be compatible with later versions of JOHN.
