found this by accident

these offsets are for AoC v1.0c - v1.4 only

you can test this via memory editing: [[007912A0]+9BC] 00 -> 01

to enable the string id edit boxes, hex edit age2_x1.exe:

# enable hidden buttons:
001EB276 00 -> 01
# fix button positions:
0x000ED089 81 01 00 00 -> 38 02 00 00
0x000ED09F 81 01 00 00 -> 38 02 00 00
# fix buttons length:
000EA602 14 -> 0A
000EB05D 14 -> 0A
# fix buttons width:
000ED099 78 -> 5A
# disable Sound Resource ID (unused)
0x000E331F 75 -> EB
0x000E3388 75 -> EB

this will enable the string ID edit boxes for triggers info, send chat, play sound, display instructions and change object name. might affect other things as well

note that play sound id doesnt seem to work (maybe because Sound is set to -1 instead of 0 )

thanks to danielpr for the button coordinates fix

"accident"

I'm starting to believe you're actually a former ES employee in disguise. Hmmm

I thought Sound-ID did work. It played the sound when we tested it. Maybe you are refering to the effect "Play Sound ID" (which I have never heard of).

What does this actually do?

ES (and the AoF team) made a string txt file or embedded the strings in the language file to be able to make the localization and implementation of text easier. Each line of text is assigned a numerical string ID, which can be typed into the string boxes in different parts of the editor. JustTesting has been able to reveal these boxes in the AoC UserPatch scenario editor. If you own the HD edition, these are revealed by default.

Hey!
I have been messing around this, and I have found a better position that doesn't conflict with any field:
http://goput.it/71a3.png

For the ones who are interested:
0x000ED089 81 01 00 00 -> 38 02 00 00
0x000ED09F 81 01 00 00 -> 38 02 00 00

Oh, and also, there is a little error in one of your adresses:

000ED098

This should be actually 000ED099
