Set Name In Server & Server Announce Player Amount

Recommended Posts

Are these things  that anyone know how to accomplish?

I have a solution for setting the name in the server, but not the server announcing how many players there are.

Steps for setting a player name are:

1) Open up your steam library in steam.

2) Right click on DayZ and open up your properties.

3) Click on "Set Launch Options"

4) Type in -name=yourname and change "yourname" to what you want to call your player (no spaces)

5) Click Ok. You're set!

each player has to set their client launch option of -name=theirname and change "theirname" for their name. Works great for me. Anyone still showing as Survivor, has not set the launch parameter for their DayZ client
