Millitary symbols over groups heads

[anusmangler 1]

Hey guys, anyway to force those military symbols that are over the groups heads in "commander mode"? even on elite....but I dont want to be in commander mode. Just so you can flip over to your map and see how the current war is going. so you may fill a whole in where enemies may be slipping through. solutions? I know someone out there is a master at this.

Short answer: No, it is built into the High Command Stuff.

This mod may offer what you are looking for:

Otherwise you will need to resort to some scripting using map markers.

Or try the military symbols module if it's even available for a3 (I forget) there's a few scripts options you can put in the module init for different effects, I don't remember them either :) but just search 'military symbols arma 2' and check in the wiki,

You can turn on Mil symbols for everything by using a modules->misc->millitarySymbols and

setGroupIconsVisible [true,false];

First boolean being viewable on the map, second in game (HUD) floating above the groups.
