Prefix cut short
I went to add Irr to my prefix in Global.con and when I get into game it cuts off showing only |TG-Ir Just wondering if there is a different way to get the prefix characters lengthened

Re: Prefix cut short
Nice, I'm glad I found this thread since I'm still having troubles. I'm trying to get the Irr prefix in, just like the OP was trying to do, and followed the instructions in the post above mine; but it still is cutting the Irr off, just as in the OP's post. I'm confused as to the solution.

Some roguishly handsome devil in the thread Hablos linked has something to say on the matter:

Typing |TG-Irr| in the folder mentioned by Whiskey above will show as the full prefix but in-game will show as |TG-Ir. You may need to make a new game account to show the tags.

Re: Prefix cut short
You'll have to make a new account, setting your prefix as part of your player name.

Re: Prefix cut short
Ok, this is starting to get stupid. I'm trying to make a new account with the |TG-Irr| prefix as part of my name, but I can't because apparently you can't have | | or - in the name. So I have no idea how to do this.
Wow, I have never been so frustrated setting up a game before. >.<

Re: Prefix cut short
1.Open notepad
2. type in |TG-Irr|
3. select it and press Ctrl+C
4. create an account in PR
5. click on account name and press Ctrl+V
6. profit!
Also don't have a space between your prefix and your name.
