I would try
Code: 
cutText ["Welcome %1", "PLAIN DOWN"];
["dayz_playerName"]

In my debug monitor I'm using "dayz_playerName" to define player names. Just deductive reasoning. I could very well be wrong.

Could be an open string. I am no pro. Only trying to help. Sorry. :c

I am VERY noob. :c Only trying to help. On a side note; I'm impressed that I was as close as I was. x)
 
If I wanted to broadcast a global message when a player joins could I just change
Code: 
private [ "_welcomeMessage" ];
to
Code: 
global [ "_welcomeMessage" ];
?
 
That would be great if you could help this is my problem.... "something went wrong" this is after trying to implement the halo jump, previous to this i put in the intro music which worked fine.

If you can help that would be great but if not its ok, i dont want to cause anyone any headaches

Thank you

It's usually just a simple open code somewhere or another. Mind sending me a PM with a link to your PBO?
 
Use this code now, the
Code: 
waitUntil {!isNil ("dayz_Totalzedscheck")};
no longer exists in DayZ so use this instead
Code: 
waitUntil {!isNil ("dayz_animalCheck")};
