Can someone make their own turn off names addon. The add on will disable names above the head would be perfect for ctf tdm and dm's.

F5? Or did you want all players to see no name?

All players, just like the old togglenames addon in v8.

And f5 is client side, this mod turns off every players names so no one can see any names. It's useful for mini games to make them harder.

I never liked this very much. Then I couldn't aim for the noobs.

How could you not aim at noobs? The toggle names add on turns names off on not the crosshair it's not f5 because f5 is client side and togglenames is serverside.

I know, I meant I don't know who to shoot at. Besides by appearance.

Doesn't that make the mini games harder and more challenging?

Yeah, darkness and camouflage are completely shattered by having a big bright sign saying "IM HERE".

But then you can't tell which ones are your buddys, and which ones are the ones who try to take you out with a rocket launcher from across the map.

Thats what I was trying to say.

Ive never had that problem because I can remember what their avatar looks like. And I wouldnt shoot across a room unless I zoomed in so it's easier to see who it is.

What if Team Uniforms are on? If someone were to re-make the hidden names script for V9, it should be modified so that you can only see the names of people on your team.

Speaking of which, someone needs to port TDM.

DrMobius · August 12, 2008, 10:23:32 AM

we could just ask someone to make a new tdm. We need one that is easier to get working.
