menu setup_funname in the console.  Next time search before you ask a question, especially a question like this.

Or if you cant remember what Garrett said (took me a while to) go into the main menu, click play, then Multiplayer setup and then you see your name.  Click Advanced and it will take you to that as well.  If you have some U and S error read this and Zorch explains it.

Umm. Do you use name "newbie" IN game? Cause usually when two "newbie" named players are in server one of the "newbies" name changes to noname then noname(1) and noname(2) depends how many "newbies" are playing in the server. I'm not quite sure.

no, I went to console typed name put in teh code for teh text pressed enter, i went to setup in my name spot was the name in fancy lettering, so i went to a game to play and then in game my name shows up as noname(1).  Why doesn't my fancy name show up in game?  Hit me back.

Did you hit apply when you are in there?  If it doesn't work that way try this.  It wont give u colours and funky names but it will change it. In the console type: "name Eric-Karr" or something like that.

When you went to your config.cfg did you add there "name" "yournamehere" like "name" "Eric-Karr"? Cause i think there is already a "name" "yournamehere" in the config. So if you did add another "name" there i think u should delete it and look for the other "name". Im not quite sure about this explanation :P
