ZNorQ 0 Posted December 15, 2011 Is it possible to change the Group ID (1-1-A) in the multiplayer lobby (where you select the different roles)? ZNorQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strikor 10 Posted December 15, 2011 It sounds like setgroupid is what you're after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
demonized 20 Posted December 15, 2011 i think that is the description in the unit window line. or try opening up mission.sqm and manually edit, at least you can edit order there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZNorQ 0 Posted December 15, 2011 @Strikor; No, and yes; I am using setGroupID - and that works as a charm. However, no matter where I use it, it seems that it will never change the group names/id in the MP lobby; it always says 1-1-A, 1-1-B, etc... @Demonized; Again, no - and yes; I can enter the team name there, but the "heading" for each team still displays "1-1-A", etc., and that is cause for some confusion. I would like it to display something like this; Dragon team <-- this is what I want instead of 1-1-A> Dragon 1 (Team lead) <--- These are ok, used in the units description field.> Dragon 2 (Radio) Lion team <-- Again.. instead of 1-1-B> Lion 1 (team lead) Lion 2 (M203) ... Now, the Dragon 1, Dragon 2, Lion 1, Lion 2, etc, is no problem - that is what is entered in the description (here I use a reference to a stringtable)...

ZNorQ 0 Posted December 15, 2011 Hundred times discussed... I bet there are many things discussed a hundred times. I always do a lot of research (wikis, forums, etc.) before making use of the forums - so if I didn't do a good enough job, I'm really sorry to fill up the forums with duplicates. Not everybody spend their whole life on a forum knowing everything... Thanks for the feedback anyway, good to know. ZNorQ PS! As for the search function @ BIS forums; not always good to find what your looking for. Often people use poor titles (as do I), and not always easy to find the correct wording... Further, spending a lot of time reading through threads after threads looking for an answer can be painful, and I therefore tend to post the question for a hopefully quick answer...

Double Doppler 10 Posted December 15, 2011 Hundred times discussed... with end of story that you can`t change it.:cool: I don't think that is the case, some time ago I could recall some Domination servers having custom group ID names or something... I had a go at using setgroupid and all I managed to change was the group name on sidechat, I don't know why the role menu reports stuff like "1-1-C" when the actual group name is different..

ZNorQ 0 Posted December 16, 2011 I don't think that is the case, some time ago I could recall some Domination servers having custom group ID names or something... Interesting, but I'm not sure if that could be a default property of Domination since it's only a few servers..? ZNorQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
