Also, I doff my hat to Judge. I had the most epic headache last night trying to get 8 players onto the same (Pistonheads) server.

I honestly don't know if they were trying to wind me up, or really that thick.

I had a bit of a mess around with the emblem editor and did a PH logo - it's set as my emblem at the moment, feel free to use it as the platoon one or as individuals if you like.

It seems I'm better at logos than I am playing the game smile

The only potential issue is that it contains 38 objects so might only be something Premium players can use, I'll see if I can do a simplified version with 20 but they aren't quite generous enough with their shapes to make this easy.

Does anyone want a jpg smiley? I can send one over, surely that would be easier?

I don't think they have made it that easy unfortunately, you can't just pick any picture you like and use it, it creates the image using the coordinates of the objects you put in the emblem editor.

What I did was take the PH logo and then modify the code on the editor so that I had an opaque PH logo as the background instead of a blank square - then I used this to map individual shapes over the top until each component was present. Some messing with layers to make sure certain parts stood above others to get the desired effect but a relatively easy 20 minute job so a <20 object one should be possible, maybe just the smiley and crossed guns or something else around the theme.

Looks good - I'm afraid I have no idea how to make this the platoon emblem, simple copy and pasting doesn't appear to work but I am probably being stupid. I have promoted you within the platoon so if its doable you should be able to do it, if you fancy giving it a go! Snaf managed to produce something of a similar quality so whichever of you gets there first!

Not played in 2months (Been very busy off getting married besides other things).

Anyway got on for a quick game last night and thought Id do a cheeky search for the Pistonheads server (didnt come on here first) - I was well impressed to actually find the server up and running.

Did about 5 rounds of TDM, what fun that was. Don't think Ive ever played TDM on BF4 - really enjoyed it! What games are you looking to run on the server?
My only complaint is that its amateur mode - Ive only ever played HC on BF4! So I kept getting killed as I was firing a couple rounds into somebody and moving on - not realising you have to stand there and empty half a clip into somebody! Any chance of the odd HC night - much better on some of the bigger maps.

Anyway I think I chipped in some cash before, let me know if you need any more.....

I couldn't work out how to get it from mine to the platoon, it's set to share with friends but I can't see any way to import it. I've done another one under the platoon for now so there is something there but if Mr Snaf wants to replace it (or anyone else) I won't be offended, the last thing I want to do is tread on any toes (because you'll make my BF4 life even more miserable).

Thing is - I don't spam the DMR. I'm as accurate with it as i am a sniper.. I think half the issue is the net code relaying the information. As for the Deagle... You did shoot me around a corner and through a wall.. Again, i'm putting that down to net code.

He was me too, until I had enough and went got one myself. Best ever round with a shotgun 25-7 or something - was chuffed.
