Changing aspects of the hud usually involves finicky circumventions that don't work 100% as intended.

This mod hides the names that float over survivors/infected heads by drawing them under the world. No additional steps needed other than to subscribe and enable in your add-ons.

Only hides names. Does not affect glow or HUD/menu text.

[spoiler]Known bug: Some specific low areas of a map may show names deep under the world when standing on specific geometry and looking down. One area this is known to occur is in the No Mercy sewers when standing in the mud.[/spoiler]
