game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) P = Instance.new("TextLabel") P.Name = player.Name P.Text = player.Name P.BackgroundTransparency = 1 P.TextScaled = true P.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 127/255, 35/255) P.Size = UDim2.new(0.5, 0, 0.075, 0) P.Parent = script.Parent end) Nothing appears in output I have it located in the starterGui.

It needs. to be in a ScreenGui. NOT StarterGui. Insert a ScreenGui into StarterGui and put the script in the ScreenGui. I reccomend reading this twice.

Ok, Sorry, Ill write the script for you. Just put this script in WORKSPACE in a NORMAL script. game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p) p:WaitForChild("PlayerGui") local s = Instance.new("ScreenGui", p.PlayerGui) local d = Instance.new("TextLabel", s) d.Size = UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, 0) d.BackgroundTransparency = 1 d.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 1, 1) d.TextStrokeTransparency = 0 d.Position = UDim2.new(0.5, 0, 0.5, 0) d.Text = p.Name d.Font = "ArialBold" d.FontSize = "Size18" end)
