No Clue what happen but it made the server shut down with this one....

Putting ShowNameTags(false); under the OnGameModeInit callback would disable the Name Tag above the player's heads... but will not remove their name from the tabs list.

Putting SetPlayerName(playerid, TheRoleplayName); somewhere in your script will change the name tag and the tabbed name... but will not disable them.

There is no way for disabling the names in the tabbed list.

Edit: Hmmm... It shouldn't, where did you put it?

SetPlayerName(playerid, "Firstname");

Wouldnt let me login with ShowNameTags(false);

And your code wont Compile gives errors

But I want it to get the players roleplay name from the user.ini that they typed in to call them selfs..

... Okay after your registration/login system put SetPlayerName(playerid, PlayerInfo[playerid][pFirstname]);

And under OnGameModeInit put ShowNameTags(false);

If this doesn't work PM me with a way to contact you and I'll put them in myself.
