    you know the way the computer generates surnames? how does it determine what the surnames will be? i remember in cm01 editor surnames were linked to a country and there was a frequency rating.

    i notice in the germany many regens have turkish and polish surnames and i just want to know how it works :)

    There is a massive Turkish and Polish population in Germany. The largest number of Turks based outside Turkey is in Germany. There is around 4 million of them.

    The name thing is random. It just takes a random first name and a random second name and puts them together.

    The first and second names are usually names associated with that country.

    I once had a Nigerian lad in my team called Friday Sunday. Best regen name ever.
