Player name other than profile name

Recommended Posts

I have done the first steps in the mission editing and despite a documentation which is sometimes chaotic (and which is so often true for open source) i solved many problems. Scripting is nice but without the knowledge of a programming language the learning curve is very steep, esp. when you have to deal with examples before Arma2 (like in Mr Murrays Editing Guide which is here outdated.)

But there is a little problem i have still found no solution. When the mission starts the game shows always my profile name but not the name i wanted for the player character. Any ideas ? Thanks.

It is a two step task.

1. Description.ext

Create an identiy here.

class Smith

{

name="Smith";

face="Face20";

glasses="None";

speaker="Dan";

pitch=1.1;

};

2. Editor

Init line of unit (player character)

player setIdentity "Smith";
