Darkfirewolf5	How do you have you name show under your character?

Cadence	To have a player's name displayed on-screen under the character or wherever, you will probably want to use some sort of "hud". This isn't exactly for beginners but there are a few demos and if you have some questions I'm sure the fine people here would be willing to help.

Cadence	oh I wasn't implying that you were a beginner, I was just making a generalized warning because this is a public forum and I'm sure there are others who've wanted to know the same thing.

HUD is for objects that stay in place on the screen as you move; it's not suited for names under characters.
