Change Player Name?

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to change my profile name without losing my original key bindings and user created missions?

Thanks Mr Burns, my original profile is under C:\Users\yourname\Documents\ArmA 2 with the profile name I don't want. If I Just change the profile in the "ArmA 2 Other Profiles" folder will this work and preserve my settings and missions?

Yup, your settings and missions are in said folder, so when you load up ArmA once more, you'll just have to select the new nickname and everything will be as before.

It wasn't that simple for me when I was doing it the other day and I had to rename the username.ArmA2Profile and username.ArmA2OAProfile files inside the folder, as it's getting the username from those and not the foldername.
