end

Just didnt understood a thing...

  
return type(name)=="string" and string.gsub(name, "#%x%x%x%x%x%x", "") or name -- what is this? is like "if" structure? how this works in lua scripting? 
  
... 
  
local _getPlayerName = getPlayerName -- this is a hook of getPlayerName? how this works? its to dosent call the costum function  below? 
function getPlayerName(player) -- we can make a function with a native MTA one? 
  

Thanks in advance

RaceXtreme, what Qwert did is replace the original getPlayerName with his own, so, yeah, it's possible.
