Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.NameDisplayDistance = 0
end)

I’ve tried other methods such as using starterhumanoid, but all lead to the same thing. My display name can still be seen:

I’m doing this in roblox studio by the way if that changes anything. And this screenshot was taken by switching from client to server.

Why don’t you just set your players’ display names to nothing instead?

#3

Like this?

Player.DisplayName = “”

?

And I idea if you send it will definitely not work about the script

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.NameDisplayDistance = 0
end)

Just did that, no error but it just changes my displayname to my username.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
	Character.Humanoid.DisplayName = ""
	end)
end)

-- Place this script in a LocalScript or a Script, depending on where you want to execute it.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
        -- Ensure the character has loaded before proceeding
        wait(1)

        -- Find the Humanoid and Billboards
        local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        if humanoid then
            -- Find all existing name tags (BillboardGuis)
            for _, child in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do
                if child:IsA("BillboardGui") then
                    -- Remove or disable the name tag
                    child.Enabled = false
                end
            end
        end
    end)

Is this chat GPT code or from you

Not saying I’ve never had problems with this… but, NameDisplayDistance is on the Humanoid.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
    Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
        local humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
        humanoid.NameDisplayDistance = 0
    end)
end)
