Suggestion: Hide own name.

[Esk]

Personally Id love the option to remove my name, Icons, LS symbols.
I've got my HP bar at the bottom anyway so I've never used the other options around my character but i would think for those who do they would like to keep those and just remove the name.

Going with this idea:
- I also think the option to toggle other character and mob name/info off separately could be a good one, but to show all the info of a mob/person I have selected.
- Also the option to just show party/LS members name could be useful rather then everyone(with all the options available currently in the settings).
- And Finally A toggle to hiding other peoples Icons would be nice, I don't have the skills to fix anything and if i wanted to shop id be shopping.
I don't need to know people are selling things unless i want to buy something.
(though most probably wont like this option lol)

The more on-off options the better.
If you [/actionbar on/off] you are going to need 10x more macros.
Also dont make just the commands, make it part of the UI under the macros tab.
I also need recast times in the log and a toggle for that too.

you also should be able to move everything on the screen to make it look like ffxi if you wish.

UI scale is a big one I run this game at 1650x1050 and everything is so huge!
I should be able to see everything in my inv without scrolling.

I know there is an option to toggle names on/off but this hides all player names including your own. I would like to only hide my own name like you could in FF XI.

Maybe it's because i'm playing on a low resoultion but the names just seem really big and it's always there floating around in the middle of the screen. It's a little distracting and i don't need to be reminded of my own name, i'm not likely to forget.

If you can already do this i appologise, but i don't see a way to do it.

Your thoughts?

Sasly n high rrsolutions the names are HUGE!!! let us a bunch of option to remove names whit diferent configurations.

I.e: remove only my char name. This the first one and most important. But remove only mobs names (whit some kind of mark to know if it is engaged) etc etc

Can we have the option to turn "Targeting name = targeting the player/creature" off? The more zoomed out you get, the larger the name seems to become requiring you to adjust your camera in a way to make it so no names cover the creature so you can target it.

I play with keyboard only, and having /targetmode b on sometimes mixes up changing action bars with targeting, and it's just a HUGE mess. And with all these targeting modes I just don't see a point to it? Or has this been addressed and I've missed it?

Come on Square hiding weapons is useless, why cant you add hide name!?

I really hope they add the option to toggle your name. I don't think I need to be reminded who my character is, not quite that slow. Being able to toggle the HP bar would be nice as well. I don't see why we can't just have a toggle option for pretty much everything. I like to keep my screen as uncluttered as possible. I don't need to be barraged by information all of the time. Not to mention, I have to keep my screen resolution low, so my screen space is precious to me.

Plus your own name is kinda obtrusive as well :S ... This option was never added into FF 11 even last time I checked and it's something that I wanted for a loooooong time. Both name AND hp bars should be toggable on and off for yourself only and everything/everyone else on a separate option. Shouldn't take long or be hard to implement I imagine, as we have options for "all" atm anyways. Having my own name float above my head makes me a saaaaad panda

I agree with what most people have said on this Topic.
A toggle to hide our own name + Hp bar is needed to enjoy the game as zoomed in/out as we want without our names getting in the way.
Also we are 10 pages in and a reply about everyones intrest would be nice

Are there any news about this theme? I still didnt see an option to hide the own character name in the new patchnotes.

That is a horrible idea! What if you forget who you are O.O
