You can just set up a profile under your account for example I am LIMEY_CLR

Todd, you are a mind reader. I was just thinking about this today. We had to do this in BF2 and that thread got revived for BF Pirates. I will go look for it.

I set up BlackArrow for COD4, but don't want to go to far rank-wise without getting the CLR in my player name :2thumbs:

Im sure this works !!!

if you open up the console by pressing the button to the left of the number one key ` and type name {CLR} in your name

something like that will find out for deffo

This works:


Load game and log into your account -

Go to - Options
Go to - Multiplayer Options
Go to - Display name

Backspace it out and make your name with tags as you like it - spaces work fine here.

Your Profile will still be BlackArrow (in my case) but the player name in game is {CLR}BlackArrow.

Todd I also edited the title of your thread to make it obvious what the subject is - easier for everyone to find later.

Nice work BA! I made mine LIMEY_CLR regardless of it being a game at the Lair or not I always wear this tag with pride. Now I can add {CLR} to the front too! WOOT!

:twisted:

actually Limey can change it to {CLR}Limey for in game without losing his rank. Profile will still be Limey-CLR

Glad to hear that Todd. Too bad this thing doesn't have a friends list.

But with XFire we can keep track of each other and when we have a friendly neighborhood server :wink: we will know where to find each other.

I'm having similar problems. Who ever heard of having usernames this short? :shock: You guys will probably just see my username as {CLR} Tails, since it doesn't look like I'll get anything else to fit.

Just got done changing my settings (look at all the buttons you need!!) and probably going to try to get some practice in before giving out free meat. :D
