Is it possible to remove the "M2" label in metaserver lobbies?

When you sign into a Myth 2 metaserver lobby, there's a "M2" label that conflicts with the rank icon, if there is one. Since the only active metaservers are for M2 these days anyway, is it possible to remove the M2 label?

I think the metaserver might have control over it. Here's the relevant code:

Code: Select all

if (player_data->player.version && (player_data->flags & _player_show_version_flag))
So if the server doesn't send the _player_show_version_flag on the player data it sends, or sets the version to 0, it won't be shown.

Thanks, Myrd, much appreciated. I didn't see where _player_show_version_flag should be sent as it's not mentioned in the GoS codebase, and I couldn't figure it out from the C codebase either, but setting the game version to 0 in the player data packet worked great.
