You can alter it in the arma profile file. It should be located under cfgdayz\Users\cfgdayz\cfgdayz.ArmA2OAProfile

Just simply edit the flags under your set difficulty to your liking. The information on the tags are here:

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/server.armaprofile#Example_Configuration_File

Comment flags in there and everything, explaining each value.

EDIT: Your server has to be stopped for you to save the file.

I haven't done this from a server perspective, but if you go into the difficulty settings, there should be an edit option, to customize with features you want to allow on Regular or Veteran. You should probably edit Veteran or Expert difficulties, rather than Regular difficulties, because Regular allows alot of helping aids like player markers on the map ect.

Options/Game Options/Dificulty/Veteran/Scroll down to "3rd Person View", select Enabled/Disable.

No need for a screenshot, just navigate to your working arma directory and follow the path I provided for you. :)

Hey dudes!

Is there a way to make nametags work only within for example 20 meters or something like that?

(Its nice for finding team members but its bad since it allows long range spotting like some sort of radar.)

As far as I know. Nope. It's either on or off.
