    NOTE: I could not find an existing plug-in that does this. There was one called SpoutNinja, but I have no interest in downloading spout. However, if there is already a plug-in that does this, and it works with 1.1, please let me know and link me to it.

    Alright, I'm going to keep this short and sweet. Me and my friends play on a war server, and it is sort of stupid how all of our flanking is a waste because they can just see our names through the trees. Or having a secret underground bunker is useless because if you are too close to the surface they see you through the ground.

    So, if somebody could make this, it would be totally awesome!

    It is not possible to hide the nameplates without spout, period... :(

    not true, u could just check if a player is within viewing range then force the player to crouch :D u could play w/ some veocity stuff and make it so while crouched u walk "normaly" too. so it is 10000000% possiable :D

    Hmm. ok I was proven wrong. (My java expertise doesn't extend so far into that region, but you should be able to do it!)

    Couldn't you just set the players name to "" ? (null string)

    That would effectively hide the nameplate (or atleast make it very small).

    Haven't tried that, but it will most likely show the grey plate.

    The citizens plugin; adding a citizen with a blank namestring doesn't show their nameplate. Worth a try in this instance then?

    It is possible using reflection! ;)
