Icons in Colored Player Names?

I noted a few folks hanging out on servers that have player names with weapon icons in their names, i.e. like rockets or the rail.

I am wondering about this because it might interfer with stats tracking.

Thanx.

There is a Quake 4 name maker that allows for icons...I'll see if I can find a link...

Just Googeled it as well.

Thanx.

Looks evil the code that you can now "hack" into a name tag.

As far as it effecting Stats Tracking. I gues it depends on the parser. MaxStats for Q4Max filters them out perfectly.

You've crossed over and can never go back. Soon you will be posting in GD and the Void.

The icons are no more "weird" than color codes--if your stats tracker can deal with color codes then you shouldn't worry about icons.

I was thinking of AEstats++ :)

But the code seems to be pretty straight forward, one just needs to do some extra filtering.
