Third Person Nameplate lets players see their own nameplate above their head in third-person. The Hytale client always hides the local player's own nameplate regardless of camera mode - this mod fixes that.

Features

Toggle command - Players can toggle their own nameplate on/off with a simple command
Smooth positioning - Nameplate follows the player smoothly with no tick-lag jitter
Crouch support - Nameplate adjusts its height when the player crouches
Mirror system - Automatically mirrors nameplate text changes from other plugins (e.g. display name plugins)
Clean lifecycle - Hologram entities are never saved to disk and are cleaned up on disconnect

Commands

/shownameplate - Toggle your own nameplate visibility (off by default)

How It Works

The server does send your own nameplate to you, but the client filters it out. To work around this, the mod spawns an invisible entity mounted above the player that displays their nameplate text instead. The player's native nameplate is cleared to prevent duplicates for other players. Because of this workaround, the feature is opt-in - it resets when you leave and needs to be toggled back on each session. When toggled off, the native nameplate is restored.

If another plugin changes a player's display name or nameplate text, the change is automatically mirrored to the hologram entity.

Compatibility

Compatible with display name plugins - nameplate text changes are automatically picked up and mirrored
