Renaming in-game TV channels
Hey guys, I've been adding custom videos to my TV channels lately and was wanting to rename some of them to reflect this, especially when it comes to movies. Say for example, I wanted to rename "Children's: Family Fun" to "Children's: Mac and Me". How would I go about this? I've seen tutorials on how to create new TV channels, but none for changing pre-existing so I'm kind of lost. I know from some mods on here that it's possible to change the name of the music stations, so I'd imagine it would be possible to change the names of TV channels too?

Any pointers are much appreciated, my child sims are being subjected to that horrid cola-chugging puppet under false pretenses!

The label on the menu is inside a Text List resource called MakeActionString.

Open objects.package and extract this file: 0x7F89C879 : 12E

There you will find the string: "Watch Movie.../Children.../Family Fun" in multiple languages. Add this extracted file to an empty package, edit and save as a new mod.

The resources of all TV channels are the following:
