About this Mod

This server-side mod hides player nicknames above their heads. The mod is quite simple, so it has no settings. I do not plan to update the mod. I have not found any bugs yet. The load on the server is minimal.

Frequently Asked Questions

ExNameTags server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.5). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is ExNameTags compatible with fabric?

ExNameTags officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.5. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with ExNameTags – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ExNameTags consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
