Hide Names Fabric Mod (Minecraft 1.21)

Hide Names is a simple and fun Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21 that removes player name tags. Now you can play hide-and-seek with your friends on servers or LAN without any visible name tags!

Please note: Only player name tags are removed. Compasses, maps, and other tracking items remain fully functional.

Fabric API is required. Tested with: fabric-api-0.102.0+1.21.

Download

• Modrinth: Also available for download here.

Planned Features

1. Player Tag Visibility Toggle:

   • Admins can enable or disable the visibility of player tags in multiplayer mode.

2. Default Visibility Settings:

   • By default, player names are visible.
   • Names will be hidden if there is an obstruction (e.g., a block) between the player and the observer (note: this does not apply to transparent objects).

3. Armor Enchantment:

   • An enchantment can be applied to armour (helmets) that hides the player's name regardless of any obstructions.

4. Go fully server-side.

Features that MAY be added (depends on the vote results)

1. Skin obfuscation:

   • A special type of armour that completely conceals the player's skin, including the face—think of ninja suits.

2. A name change:

   • A non-craftable, single-use item (similar to the nametag) that can temporarily change username to a random/selected name (work in progress).

These features are not planned yet. These are the recommendations, whether you like them or not, let me know!
