Create textfile (fx open notepad)
type:
seta xp_name "YOUR NAME"

save file as YOURFILENAME.cfg

In Q3 e+ mod:
type in console ->
/exec YOURFILENAME

Voila!

//Peace

forget? hehe ...
Then why xp_name not removed from new version?

errors happens not always.
Only if you use incorrect encoded glyphs and/or glyphs which is cfg operators (spaces, partially punctuation, reserved words).

HOWEVER, names encoded with font map table do not return any errors.
But resonable question: cg_name have support of fancy font map?

rgrds,

lol, check my sig, I made a whole tool based on xp_name that supports older version conversion (name) and u say forget about Tongue

xp_name was readonly during a beta version of 1.04 then became active again, that's why I suppose this guy had mixed versions or older beta one.
