Display Name Scaling

[Stephfen (Yoshi)]

Is it possible to change the Scalizing/TextSize/Size of the Display Name inside of a Humanoid?

I’m currently messing around with Names for players ingame, and I wanted it to be universal so even the player themselves can see their own names. Although the issue is that it’s a tad bit too big, and might tend to look annoying infront of other players screens.

Afaik nametags are not customizable, however you can create your own. You will first need to create a local script in StarterPlayerScripts that does the following:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

-- First we will create a function that creates the nametag and customizes it:
local function createNametag(player)
    local character = player.Character
    if not character then
        return
    end
    
-- This creates a new BillboardGUI which is essential, the size can be customized to whatever you want.
    local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")
    local billboardGui = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
    billboardGui.Adornee = head
    billboardGui.Size = UDim2.new(0, 100, 0, 30)
    billboardGui.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(0, 2, 0)
    billboardGui.Parent = head
    
-- The size should only be adjusted through the BillbaordGUI, however any properties
-- that you want to change can be changed here:
    local nameLabel = Instance.new("TextLabel")
    nameLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1
    nameLabel.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0)
    nameLabel.Text = player.Name
    nameLabel.Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansBold
    nameLabel.TextSize = 14
    nameLabel.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
    nameLabel.Parent = billboardGui
end -- End of function

-- Gives every current player the custom nametag:
for _, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
    createNametag(player)
end

-- Gives every new player that joins the nametag:
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    createNametag(player)
end)

Ah I see, I had a general idea of just making my own but kept having issues so I was going to stick with what I had. Thank you very much, i’ll be sure to learn off of this.
