zzarac Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Is there any way of showing full nicknames with clan info in the players panel? I am defaulting mine to "medium #1", but even if I choose "full" they still are truncated and I can't see any of the longer nicknames, including the clan parenthesis. I tried editing nickMinWidth and nickMaxWidth in playersPanel_medium.xc, but it just makes the nickname cell wider - nicknames stay truncated. Any help appreciated, thanks. Quote Link to comment
Moderator Quaksen Posted October 15, 2016 Moderator Share Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) {{nick%.16s~..}} You need to change that part. {{nick}} should show the full name + clantag.. See; \res_mods\mods\shared_resources\xvm\doc\macros.txt for other options. Edited October 15, 2016 by Quaksen 1 Quote Link to comment
zzarac Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 Just changed that, and the names are still truncated... Maybe I've done smth wrong? Here's the excerpt of that part of the file: "nickFormatLeft": "<font color='{{c:r}}' alpha='{{alive?#FF|#80}}'>{{nick}}</font>", "nickFormatRight": "<font color='{{c:r}}' alpha='{{alive?#FF|#80}}'>{{nick}}</font>", Quote Link to comment

I haven't messed too much with it... Maybe try {{nick%.100s~..}} which shouldn't truncate until their names are 100 characters long.. The above one truncates at 16 1 Quote Link to comment
zzarac Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 Thanks, that worked, but i still needed to expand nickMinWidth and nickMaxWidth values. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, obviously though, otherwise it cannot display stuff It would dynamically change the field size if the min width is smaller than the max width, and the names will decide the cell size. 1 Quote Link to comment

Administrator Aslain Posted October 16, 2016 Administrator Share Posted October 16, 2016 I wanted to show full names there but the PP background has limited size and everything look ugly when I set it like this. Hence the sollution with truncated names. Quote Link to comment

Hence the sollution with truncated names. Aslain, I have absolutely no problems with players panel as it is, just needed the option to show full nicknames (and clan tags). Since there is a way of doing that (as Quacksen pointed out) there is no reason to change your default settings. Editing one text file really isn't a big hassle, and in your place I would ignore the whiners. Quote Link to comment
