The editor will create a backup when you load a .mo file and change the extension to .mo_BU
You can load the backups in MO Editor but it will save back over the original .mo
The .mo_BU will never be over written.
How this works:
The .mo files are used for translation of text to different languages.
MO Editor allows you to search and replace the text in these files as seen on screen.
You should be able to edit any text that's in the game using MO Editor.
The ones you will probably will what to edit are the nation_tankmen.mo files.
Not only can you change the name of the characters, you can also change any string in the file.
You could change "Commander" to "Big Cheese"
You will need to reload the WoT Client for any changes to be seen!
The Path to the .MO files is: World_of_Tanks\res\text\lc_messages
This is the String listing window.
You can look through here to find a string you want to replace.
Double clicking on a string will select it and copy its name in to the Old Name field.
This is the select for replacment window.
You can check which instances to replace.
You can experiment with this.. For replacing tank names.. Just checking the bottom 2 works.
Use at your own risk..
If you fail to protect your files by backing them up and something goes very wrong, you could fine yourself downloading the entire game again!
