Hey Comrades,
I've written a small addon that puts the names of players (roughly) under their icon in the command bar. It's not quite as nice as what Arma 3 does, but it should work for most cases.
Features:
- Displays unit number and name of player or "AI"
- Displays team by colored background.
Limitations/bugs:
- Limited to up to 10 units.
- After team switch, the player name might be wrong. This is a bug in Arma and cannot be fixed.
This is still very early work, so it might cause trouble, although I have tested it a bit and didn't run into any issues. If you want to give it a try, I attached the pbo. You can load it as a normal addon, or copy it into your mk4HudInfo/Addons.
UPDATE: new version released, see the attached archive file.
Make sure to read the readme contained inside.
New features:
- userconfig file for easy customization (well, easy... sort of)
- new for non-leaders: Displays your group name, unit number, and team color (if any)
- More, check the PDF.
UPDATE: Yet another new version, see the attached archive file.
New feature:
- non-leader display can now optionally show a list of all members in a colored team to make it easier to decide whom to run after See the userconfig file to enable/tweak the feature.
UPDATE: Version 1.3 released. This is mostly bugfixing:
- Removed RPT Spam (thanks Horus)
- Fixed an issue where the command bar would stick around when the leader changed
- Minor cosmetic fixes
If this is mostly bug-free, I am going to release it.

I don't need luck, I have ammo.
