[quote user="Verse"]Hey guys, I've just recently downloaded this kit and it's great!! What I'd like to try and do is make the main characters name selectable by the player in the beginning of the game, though I'm a little lost as to how I can do this. Eg. Game starts -> Player speaks to NPC -> "Hi, ...

This would be a significant change to how the quest lines are handled.  It's definitely possible, but you'll be changing a lot of Session.cs, the main logic for handling quest progressions, and several menu screens. It was implemented this way for simplicity - simplicity in code, simplicity in content, simplicity in serialization ...

[quote user="mtnhome3d"]thanks i accidently stumbled on that myself after posing and forgot to update the post, but now that i set it to a sprite font, it says "no glyphs could be found" for my font. i've set it back to the default font .bmp and it works fine. i even put black boxes around the letters. if you want i can ...

[quote user="pixelminerXNA"]Actually, save files being xml does bring up a legitimate concern.
