How do I turn those @#&% enemy names off?[message #361163]

Seriously, I don't care to see the names of those I kill. I'm simply not interested, not to mention it's totally unrealistic to somehow know the name of the guy you're sniping at a distance.

So which setting is responsible for this new age trip?
Here is what I have right now:

SHOW_ENEMY_EXTENDED_INFO is set to false, and yet I see a lot of information over enemies. I dare not imagine if it were true.
INDIVIDUAL_HIDDEN_PERSON_NAMES is left to true, mostly because "hidden".
INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_NAMES is set to false, and yet all enemies come yelling their name.

I must have missed a setting somewhere. Please help!

Also, I'm going to have a stroke if I start training militia, and they all come with a name and a wallet full of pictures of their wives and children!...
If this is a real risk, please tell me quickly how to disable those names too, before I reach Drassen...

You should have read the description for INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_NAMES that points you to another parameter - SOLDIER_PROFILES_ENEMY.

Thanks. It's not that obvious - The description says "Controls whether enemy soldiers/militiamen can use predefined profiles from TableData/Profiles", no mention of displaying names or not. I don't mind them having names, as long as they don't broadcast them over their heads like as many billboards. Most people I meet in the streets in RL don't shout their names around...

So setting "SOLDIER_PROFILES_ENEMY = FALSE" will stop that malarkey?
I'll try it as soon as I have some free time, thanks.
