unable to change my name other than "Player"

ejdereldek · Feb 18, 2019

hi, my issue is updating my driver name in game settings as my real name ( Ejder ELDEK) . But in laps(as linked below) my name still seems as default Player. Anybody knows how to update it ? log file uploaded. Thanks.

Any idea?

In fact, I'm not sure why this happens .... but I think you should try this:
In the launcher, try to modify your profile that way:
- keep First Name and Last Name empty
- just mention Ejder ELDEK in "Nickname"

For me that's working when I'm driving on a pickup server without having a personal skin on this server. And that is how it will appear on the Stracker display.
NB: of course in a Laptime display on which you already have a best lap under "Player" ... you'll have to make a better laptime to make this "Player" become your real name.

İ will try. Thanks

You're welcome.
For a good test, it should be better to make a laptime on a server session ( with Stracker ) where you have no laptime yet.
Else, you'll need to check it in the "Sessions" tab of the Stracker display ... maybe there would it appear with your name even with no better laptime. ( but not fully sure .... as most leagues are using personal skins and the names displayed in this case are the name mentioned in the server entry_list. Reason why I'm not 100% sure ).
