I was trying this out with an alternative account and i got kicked from 3 of 4 servers in 1 hour.
Reasons:
Are you cheating?
Impersonating an Admin
and
WTF?

Well, I've still yet to see it in game, though I don't play a lot, I'm still yet to be convinced it even works.

I tried again today and nobody noticed... i asked and they said they couldn't see it.
is there a chance that only some can see it?
Also though, the day I got kicked 3 times, i was making really stupid comments, so maybe I got banned for that.......
suddenly, i don't know if I believe this either.

ok its the end of the round on bf2 all noobs are going omg catch a flag, the person alive doesnt here it, this happend to me coz i often play at a LAN center and i couldt see their typing, this may only happen on some serverand is up to the admin to decide coz i know it is in some games. also have you ever been alive when receiving text from somone who is *dead*? coz i dont think i have this is why i always wait till i respawn till i press enter if typing stuff.

OK, guys. I can't get this to work. I'm not a novice with PC's; I've coded a new BF2 utility that I will be releasing soon, so this seems like a very simple concept.

I'm editing "HUD_CHAT_DEADPREFIX" in English.utxt located in "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Localization\English", yet both in Single and Multiplayer, the prefix still shows *DEAD*. Now, this is interesting since if I was indeed editing the correct line yet screwed it up, it wouldn't show *DEAD* as it has been replaced with *WTFBBQ*.

Any ideas?

yeah, get your stupid backup files(assuming you backed up) out of your /English/ folder as the game uses all the files in there regardless of the file names.

Hmm... I have large blue text for mine no *DEAD* or anything like that.. So it would appear that I'm alive when I'm dead, just with large text.. You think I should change it back to normal, I don't want people thinking that I'm name hacking or anything..
