This is an exploit that has existed in Battlefield 2 since it was first released and was just recently made more public. Basically by making some changes to a config file for BF2, once an enemy player appears on your screen, their name tag becomes visable even if they go out of your site. This lasts till they die. It's not detected and works in version 1.4 still.

Example screenshot (http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/9951/screen064ln9.png).

Instructions:

Add following lines in your Battlefield 2 or 2142\Profiles\0001\profile.con.

NameTags.MaxEnemyDistance 9999
NameTags.EnemyTagFadeInTime 0.00000001
NameTags.EnemyTagFadeOutTime 9999
NameTags.EnemyTagDelayTime 0.0000001
NameTags.EnemyDotLimit 0.0000001

Save and make the profile.con read-only, so these changes stick.

WARING: PB streams, meaning it can search you, and your files without telling you it updated. I wouldn't be surprised if this is allready detected, and coule potentially get you hardware banned.

Nope. It's not a bannable offense and yes I've done it.

Return the file in the original state? How hard can it be, because you have made a backup offcourse prior to editing your file.

So now you all know it, pb has listed this already in the software. No need to try it anymore.

lol I did, but it corrupted a whole bunch of other files... so I just reinstalled BF2 and that seemed to work :)
