I used to be able to fade players names exploiting the spam_maxlen command and using "/admin rename" to get around the max character limit for names, e.g. /admin rename player 1 0xffooffP0xbb22bbl0x994499a0x885588y0x558855e0x33bb33r0xooffoo1 but since our server started utilising sty+ct it doesn't work now.
is there a way to have STY+CT and still be able to fade names ?
STY+CT Fade Name Problems.
Re: STY+CT Fade Name Problems.
The issue isn't a difference in behavior between sty+ct and the vanilla game. The RENAME command not respecting the name length limit was a bug, and it was fixed over 3 years ago—the fix is present in both branches.
It seems you were simply using a super-old server version. You can patch your server to reintroduce the RENAME bug, but it's unlikely to be something offered officially. Bumping the max name length has been discussed, and I think the consensus was that it is not a needed change. Not counting color codes towards the limit was also rejected.

Thank you 
I think everyone at "The Prison Yard" will just have to get used to it
