Custom Entity Names

Hello All!

I was looking at this page (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Chunk_format#Entity_Format) on Minecraft Wiki the other day and stumbled upon the "CustomName" NBT tag. I wanted to try add a feature relating to this in my plugin. Is this even implemented in 1.4.7 though? Or is it an upcoming feature in 1.5? I have code that works for applying NBT tags to entities I know already (or at least, I think it does ;P).

Thanks!

I think it means the name of it when you put a villager spawn egg in an anvil and rename it (1.5) it will show the item display name on the villager trading interface when you spawn it. Check out SethBling's snapshot video.

 

Oh, ok. Thanks! I also saw "CustomNameVisible" as a tag. I guess that would be a 1.5 feature too then.

 

Yes, this causes showing name above head of mob.
