IdentityTheft hides all the overhead names, titles, guilds, and health bars for all units to streamline the screen shot taking process.
Macro Command
/script IdentityTheft.StealIdentities()
The IdentityTheft command above is a toggle switch. It will initially store all of your current overhead name, title, guild, health bar settings in to a temporary table, then turn everything off. Running the command again (ie, toggle) will restore all of your previous overhead name, title, guild health bar settings, and turn on those that were previously checked.
IdentityTheft was created to satisfy the many requests for a "name toggle" addon, posted on WHA. It assists those players that like to take screen shots, but find it tedious to turn off every overhead setting manually.
Warning!
There is currently a UI bug that will still show your target's title, regardless of whether it was turned off manually or turned off by IdentityTheft. I have posted a bug report to Mythic already.

Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
