Right, here's another of my stupid questions so sorry in advance as I'm sure this comes up all the time, but I want to put my name (Bobfred) in different colours on Q3 like everyone else seems to. Can anyone help? I'd also like it to flash if possible? I'm new to internet gaming so you'll have to assume I know nothing and please don't use loads of technical speak coz I won't have a clue.... Cheers! Big grin

It has to be pasted in the config.cfg file in the excessiveplus folder.

Be sure to place your name in the " "

seta name "flashy blinky name"

your new name will only show up when playing excessiveplus.
