No names

[bobblehat]

I'm requesting a link (if there is one) to an add-on that can show no names over players. I didn't know what to search so I'm asking for someone to give me it or someone to make it, thanks.

It for minigame?

[YourBuddyBill]

Sry man I dont have a clue. The client sided one included with the game is f5 i think but it also disables crosshairs and doesnt do it to everyone.

Maybe it should be released in an advanced minigame prefs pack or something...

[TheArmyGuy]

Impossible.
It's not possible to hide names completely from clients, just disappear when you get farther away.
It's in the base code.

[Demian]

TDM does this.

[Altered]

TDM does this.

No it doesn't, it only hides names until they're close.

[YourBuddyBill]

Then could a modified version of TDM possibly hide the names until they are at distance 0 from the player, thus making them disappear all together?

[blockhead55]

Wasn't there a thing which put a invisible wall in front of the name with ray casting?

I think Badspot removed this feature.

[YourBuddyBill]

but why?

but why?

Lemme go look it up.

Doesn't work. Names are visible at a close range.
"Raycasting zones" don't exist. If they did, they would also stop projectiles.
You don't need permission to takes bits of code out of other add-ons, nor the whole thing either. Me, being a scripter myself, allow others to use my code as much as they please.


As to hiding the players' names, you would have to delete the player when it spawns, create a new one and don't set a name on it, and apply everything to it that should normally happen. Which can and will cause conflicts with many add-ons. This would have to be a private thing for use in your own server.

There is a workaround, and I just quickly made a player::hidename function using it, but there are a few unfixed glitches, and probably a lot more glitches that I haven't found.

So it's most likely to be very glitchy.

[bobblehat]

so can tdm hide the names at long range?

[The Corporation]

so can tdm hide the names at long range?

Yes.
Get too close to someone, and the names become visible.

[bobblehat]

Yes.
Get too close to someone, and the names become visible.

Thank you, I will lock now.
