📋 About This Mod

Show name tags above NPC's heads.

This is an improved version of the Nameplate mod I released as an optional file in Project E3 HUD Tweaks.

This mod displays a nameplate above the heads of non-player characters (NPCs) with the available information like level, name (after scanning), rank or job. The game decides what information to show.

As the number of Civilians is very large and seeing "NC Residents" everywhere is boring, I added some variations based on affiliation, gender and appearance.

I've added a CET window that lets you change some settings, like:

  • []Toggle Mod[/]

    []Show or Hide Nameplates for Enemies, Civilians, NCPD, Friends, Barghest, ...[/]

    []Set the font size of the Nameplates[/]

    []Set the display range for when the Nameplate shows[/]

    []Hide the frame or set it to full background[/]

    []Enemies and NPC Level toggle options[/]

    []Set font weight of the Nameplate text[/]

    []Choose colors for each NPC category[/]

Optional Lite version:

It's a "universal" version based on the vanilla strings from the game, so there's no need for translation. But there are also no variations for standard NPC titles like "NC Resident". Made in cooperation with MrFlashMode, all thanks to him.

Compatibility/Info:

  • []Works for Vanilla HUD (or similar) and for E3 HUDs[/]

    []For some reason, Nameplates do not work when the player is in a shop or such a building, did not find that trigger yet.[/]

    []If you have the optional file from Project E3 HUD Tweaks, please delete and use this mod. Do not use both.[/]

    []Works well with No More Duplicate NPCs. It reduces the chance to see twins on the street, which is especially annoying if you pay attention to the name plates.[/]

    []No Enemy Scaling is also a nice addition. It gives all the NPCs reasonable levels, especially stops enemies from automatically scaling with your level.   [/]

    Translation:

    This mod supports external translations now. Just copy the English.reds in the localization folder (r6\scripts\NPCNameplates\Localizations), rename it to your language.reds and follow the Instructions on top. PM me your translation. Current translations:
