Has anyone been able to -change- starting "background" skills for Generals in a save game file?

[Jern]

I have tried using the EditSF program on game save files and and drilled down to the CAMPAIGN_SKILLS under a specific CHARACTER_ARRAY. Clicking on CAMPAIGN_SKILLS shows the value string for the background skill. Also farther down under CAMPAIGN_SKILLS_BLOCK - 0 the value is listed along with a possible ID number.


I have tried changing both strings and the ID to match other strings and IDs that found from other Characters. When i load a modified save game the modified General simply has his background skill removed. No icon in the character details and no apparent effects from the background skill (assuming that maybe just the ICON was not working).


Anyone have any thoughts on this or luck changing the Background skills on in saved games?
