Nametags not turning on?

[Lith 80]

So I'm tired of seeing choppers and teleporting god mode hackers on my server. I changed my skill level to regular and enabled friendlytags/enemytags and they're not showing. Am I missing something? I also changed the following to be veteran style:

skillFriendly = 0.75;

precisionFriendly = 0.75;

skillEnemy = 0.75;

precisionEnemy = 0.75;

Problem: Choppers, hackers, god moders.

Solution: Nametags ???????????

I think they should be set to 1 for on, 0 for off.

Not that this will fix your hacker problem I don't think, will just drive away players who want to play with rules that make sense. EG) not playing with nametags and auto distance checkers.

Do you have Crosshairs turned on? friendly tags only work with that.

It's a server side setting, not client side.

did you changed your profile skill level or the skill level of the server/mission?

the skill levels are now set aren't they?

eg:

I don't think you can change to veteran and have crosshairs/nametags on anymore.

You can have cross hairs on and be on Veteran just not nametags. But the OP said they changed to Regular.

Solution is to find the names of the hackers and ban them while playing. People leave more when cities are being blown up and people are warping around. I'm sure my players would rather be playing with legit people then hackers. The logs are next to useless because their scripts are bypassing them or forcing other players to execute them. So the half-assed solution is to see who is in the chopper/warping/god mode and get their name and ban them outright.

Thanks for the tip on CrossHair.

Yup my US302 has Veteran with crosshairs on running 95054 so it's definitely possible.
