Alternative Nametag Render v1

• Customize your nametags however you want with an easy-to-understand configuration
• Specify the settings for the permission groups you need
• Add an icon to the nametag to better convey the mood (supports animation)
• Change the format of text with MiniMessage by adding a gradient to the text and more

Features

• All nametags are centered so you won’t notice any shifting when viewed from above (works since version 1.21.2)
• Is attached and aligned on all sides
• Supports only MiniMessage format
• Support ViaVersion (everything after 1.19.4, visual bugs may occasionally occur)
• Scales to the player’s size (scale attribute)
• All options are inherited from the default group, so you don’t have to duplicate them
• Instant reload of all nametags via command
• Partial NPC support (tested with Citizens) (doesn’t work with packet implementation)
  
• Vanish plugins are supported automatically, as displaying the nametag depends on the client having information about the player
• Supports TAB placeholders and PlaceholderAPI (only if optional dependency with extension is installed)
• Resource pack is not needed
• Asynchronous

Commands

/anr:reload

Permission: ANR.reload

nametag-refresh-interval
delay in ticks (1/20 seconds) for updating nametags (placeholders / gradient tags / icon animations)

color-transition-step
a smaller value makes the transition smoother, with a large delay in “nametag-refresh-interval”, slowing down the color flow animation ( ).
Specify the phase parameter for these tags to disable the animation

format
nametag format in placeholders (MiniPlaceholders & TAB).
It is highly recommended to close strings with single quotes.
Supports ONLY MiniMessage formatting

background-color
specify the nametag color in word or in ARGB format (for fully transparent: 0,0,0,0).
Leave default if you want a semi-transparent background

text-opacity
How transparent should the text be, from 0 to 5?

text-shadowed
should shadow shader be applied to letters?

see-through
view nametags through blocks (turns off when sneaking)

alignment
text alignment when wrapping to new lines (available: center, left, right)

billboard
which axes the nametag can rotate to look at you (available: center, vertical)

view-distance
maximum distance in blocks from which the nametag will be visible

pin
pin the nametag to the selected edge (width-height).
Width: left, right, center.
Height: top, middle, bottom.
Also useful if you want the nametag to be displayed on the side

disabled
switch to “true” if you don’t want to apply custom nametags

icon

1. value
   you can specify any item or symbol that will be located on the side of the nametag.
   The custom model data of the item is 152371, so you can specify the texture
2. glow-color
   supports RGB and color in word.
   Works only if there is an item in icon.value and the “see-through” option is enabled
3. alignment
   specify the alignment of the icon if enabled (available: left, right)
4. animation
   optionally specify one of the available animations: shake / pulse

To customize the following settings, try a site with visualization

scale
is specified in three-dimensional coordinates or using a multiplier (example: 1,1,1). The third coordinate sets the depth of the item icon

translation
specified in three-dimensional coordinates (starting from: 0,0,0)
