you can't
we wont carry problems from other servers to this one
so renaming chars is not possible
I do not think name change is possible.
Its possible - but not here And like OP said - that wont change anytime for some good reasons
maybe i didnt word that right.
if you join a clan or want to add charecters to your name.
Like if i wanted to add .. Lord in front of Octavius..
how do i go about doing that?
create a new char with the name
im sorry if i made it seem like a problem with this Mod.
I didnt mean to imply that.
And i dont want to change anything..
did it sound that way??
i realy like this mod and the forums !!
Its a very refreshing Mod !
Keep up the good work everyone!!
will i loose any of the mapping ive done so far?
all of it
are ytou saying i f i ad a T fo rtrader in my name i loose all my mapping iv done up to that point?
Or if i join a clan and change name i loose all the mapping iv done,and have to go back and map it again??
so then im behind in the clan again??
im just being sure im hearing this right..
why is it done this way?? just asking politly..
That is correct Octavius.
"Standart procedure" would be to create a new character with your "updated" name,
and transfer your equipment and money from your previous character with the help
of another player.
Unfortunately there is no way to prevent to loss of the mapping (although you may
find many sources around providing CF maps to help you "redo" them).
As for the reason... it avoids server problems:
Quote from SWAT OP-R8Rwe wont carry problems from other servers to this one

Renaming is possible.
However the database or where the names are stored isn't changing the original name. In-game your name is changed but if a player tries to PM you or send you a squad invite to your new char name, it wont work. At least that's what I saw when I used to run a server.
thank you to al l who left messages!!
My forums name i wont change,but everyso often i like to ..either add to my name or change it completly just for fun.
Ill remeber a old name that i like ,and depending on the ship and the RP mood im in.ill change it..
But if i cant chnge it here.ill just have to iive with it beening plain..
again thank you to all!!
reasons for preventing name changes by players on the server
1. it prevents clan jumping
2. it prevents the already meantioned malfunction of the player messages
3. it prevents that people break serverrules and hide behind a new name afterwards
4. it prevents that people start cheating and try hiding from the server administration
5. it generally prevents confusion between the players
ok thank you, all those reasons iv experienced with other,s but have never done them myself, ,but thank you !
Hello,
Are these rules still the same in newer versions of the server ?
Just to know..
Thanks
IIRC any clan leader can change names of player chars.
Hi Zebu. there was a feature added that now allows clan leaders to rename characters for you if you join a clan. It was put in to make it easier to recruit new clan members. If you join a clan the clan leader will rename your characters for you and you will not lose any progress made on your characters
Ok, perfect
