mydogbass 1 Posted June 25, 2013 what if when you have a squad url that on some servers will put a logo on the side of your car you also the got a armband (that may be any color with a logo on the outside) around your arm for a squad id...the only reason I say this is many people asked rocket at e3 what might be used for identification of players and I just gave it a thought...any thoughts?

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) You mean exactly like the Squad xml. currently used in Arma and that some people use in the mod already?It's easily doable, just a case of if it fits with rockets plans I guess. He talked about clans etc and discussed things like tatoos and so on so it's not out of the question. Edited June 25, 2013 by Fraggle 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TacticalN29 89 Posted June 26, 2013 As Fraggle said they were discussing tattoos. If I'm correct they were also discussing patches for your uniform and/or clothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maldorlevr 37 Posted June 26, 2013 I currently manage the squad.xml for TMW. Here is the link that I used for setting it up: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/squad.xmlIf you're a visual learner you can always search 'squad.xml' in YouTube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've used it on several servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enforcer1975 1111 Posted June 26, 2013 I'm pretty sure they will allow squad xmls however i don't know what such a thing has lost in a non military game...I doubt survivors will build camps and raise their "clanflag" to show off...? It made sense in clanwars so you knew who you were dealing with ( like spotting a tag on a vehicle an ID a player of you squad if you forgot who was in there or if it was actually still in your possession ) Maybe we could add bedsheets and towels with the clan logo? Gang signs would be interesting but it's not like every group is a typical "gang". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mydogbass 1 Posted June 26, 2013 but im talking more so for a small squad of people the might be making a village in origins or just typical dayz and being able to tell if its someone you know. It might also be cool to have to find a sewing kit a sew the patch onto your clothing or finding spray paint for your car so other players can see it. For the flag thing that would also be cool just to have a bed sheet with a logo but I think buildings would have to get a little more complex than that to have a proper use .

SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747 Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) Just get everyone in your group to wear orange beanies and carry Glocks. Don't forget you can change clothes now... so player appearance is going to be much more customizable. Edited June 26, 2013 by SalamanderAnder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
