Uhh wouldn't that be a disadvantage in team games? Because you couldn't tell who was a teammate or not. Well I suppose you could see whos on your team with radar.....

It's also nice to see who's got the moves so you can be ready to stomp 'em when they've got the scrum.
I never said it was finished, did I? ;)
This is good in bot only games (quickplay) so you won't be interrupted by names.

Ahh ok sounds good enough..i saw the nathan has turned off name toggler in yer urban battleground game
Better for screengrabs too. Nice work Nathan. It has a few uses - even if they take a while to figure out ;)
-Z-
Never thought of that. I was just doing it for, like I said, an improved parental control. Thanks for pointing that out! ;)
Ooooh cool script nate I ialready downloaded it XD tee he he new screengrabs comin this way!!!
EDIT: also if you could make some kind of log for certain names (i.e. Rude ones) the script could auto block(?) certain names instead of all of them. This could be used as a filter for rude/obcene player names

Feel free to change CTRL N to something else, if it is interfering with something else, or you just don't like that :)
I made it ctrl b for block. I dunno why I fealt like messing around with nates script and adding my name to a little credit thing XD
Some say im insane some say im normal
I say im an Insanly Sticky Hen Blower Upper... Uberscale
Hmm maybe I should join an anti acronym group.....

Go ahead. Put your name on the comment line. Just don't distribute it that way :)
Hey, -z-, if you like, you can add this to the utilities section. Don't know if I functions enough though. If you do, please email me, and I will give you a better readme, and text for the page.
Indeed, it might as well go there as to some it might be a useful utility. Email me the text etc and I'll add it in.

@zIMP its a screenGRAB its like a screen shot and no you dont need it
A screen grab is a screenshot.
@-z-
Sure! I will be glad to email it all in to you. Have to switch to IE cause mozilla doesn't support ActiveX for richtext in email :)
Cool stuff Nathan..
Then you have probably either:
A) Not pasted the the entire code that Nathan gave
B) Have messed up some other portion of the file in the process
C) Have not pasted it at the very end, but inside some other part of the file - thus messing up other functions
-Z-
Hmmm. Layout seems to be messing up in your email -z-. {'s and }'s are out of place, for lack of better terms. Hopefully you can fix it, or it worked fine on your end. Not sure.
Anyway, I checked the layout on the one posted here, and it works great.
Well, the layout here is fine.
Yes, it can be opened in notepad. Just copy and paste after everything in the file. If you have modwizard, right after that. Don't leave a line. Just put it in.
If not, do the same right after the last line in the file. Pretty simple.
I cant c the pics.....*sigh*.....
Uploadit is flaking out. Their bandwidth is through the roof.
You can imagine what it looks like without names though.

Nice little utility Nathan. Think I could request an update? I'd like it to hide the scores too. It would be even better if it could turn off the automatic messages (Master TMO has been eliminated by X) and the score notes or "you are dead" alerts. I'm using this to take screenshots - lots of screen shots.
Oooooh, I'm in utilities now. Ok, hopefully I can get the screenies back up soon, so this thread can show a preview. Gimme a little while to take some screengrabs, and I will post them back up.
Hiding chat is 100% possible, and I probably will integrate this into the script. Hopefully I can find time.
EDIT: Added screenshots.

How do u guys come up with tis stuff... Did u make thinktanks?
No, they just script.
Oh who made thinktanks then??? I think -Z- did did he?
No, Bravetree did.
Oh that company... I got it off shockwave
Do u play any other games from it.. I use 2 play orbz...
Ok ok ok.... Let's use this thread for discussion of NAMETOGGLER only.
I would, but I couldnt get it to work. :P
Do what it says in the utilities page. Paste the text into main.cs in your thinktanks install folder.
I did, still didnt work.
You must of done something wrong then, double check the instructions, and try again. Remember, it's the main.cs file in the MAIN tt folder (from program files), not the "game" folder.
Yes I know, and I put it at the very bottom, under modwiz, wingamns ect.
How do I download it?
Go 2 utilities and there it will say download,...
Uhh wouldn't that be a disadvantage in team games? Because you couldn't tell who was a teammate or not
You could put in place of the "rude names" Blue Team (if their on Blue Team) and put Green Team (if their on Green Team). You could also put Red Team if its just normal battle (or something els). Or on normal battle you could put stars (*) for each letter.
... Yeah also y would u want that it does not annoy any1 during play or at least no1 complained I don't c the need 4 it though it works really kool... Hmmmmmmm can u make my homework dissapeer??????? ;)
Ok. I need to find out how to make screengrabs, They will come in handy for my Theme Park Mods. Also, if you view my modding competition mod, and post some screenshots there, I won't have to enter your mod and look at it, I could end up not being able to enter, you see. Then I will install Nathan's script.

Hi Nethan I just found this out today. I know this thread is very old but I think it's an antique.
I came here today to say if you could fix those two red x's on your first post. :( I would be happy if you did fix it! :) Then I would see how this is great and all! ;)

What is NameToggler?
Yay. I have just completed a quick little script that is kinda neat.
You see, the goal of this script was to disable names, but still be able to chat and interact. Almost like an improved child filter. Well, I have hit some obstacles, and would like to release what I have done so far.
This is a client side only scipt, so people in your server will not see the changes.
What Does NameToggler do?
(This paragraph has been edited)
Name Toggler can be used to greatly improve screengrabs by removing the small floating name on tanks that will quite often smudge if you aren't sure how to keep image files high quality, or simply don't want to. I hope you can also find other uses for this script!
BEFORE:
AFTER:
Neat eh?
How do I Install NameToggler?
This file is ready for download in the Utilites section of this site, and so is installation instructions. The link is in the left sidebar.
How do I use NameToggler?
Easy. Press CTRL + N, any time, anywhere. This works in your servers and other's servers as well.
Are you willing to help further development of NameToggler?
If you feel you can complete what I started, please contact me to let me know! I would be glad to have other's to work on this.
Improving screengrabs since 2004.
