because it is a hidden cvar in left 4 dead, we can't use it directly

As the th3y did, we have to

PHP Code:

CreateConVar("sv_glowenable", "1").... 


in sourcemod code

I tested, and it said "hud_targetid_name_height" not found,
are you sure this convar can be used on server side?

PHP Code:

hud_targetid_name_height                 : 12       : , "cl", "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions

Hope harrypoter can support realistic mode

I have found a temporary solution for Realism

Configuring cfg

PHP Code:

l4d_survivor_glowenable "0"
l4d_survivor_hidehud "1024"
sv_glowenable "1" 


Reload next 3 lines

PHP Code:

sm_cvar sv_disable_glow_survivors "1"
sm_cvar sv_disable_glow_survivors "0"
sm_cvar l4d_survivor_glowenable "0"

you are right. It is not working anymore (just like sv_glowenable). I think they stopped working on sourcemod 1.10 (or maybe 1.9).
I used to set those convars on the past, but they are not working anymore, i think it is because newer versions of sourcemod).

Edit: I could notice survivor names are not shown during cinematics. Maybe there is another way to hide them.

[tested on L4D2, listen server]

Using in chat !cvar hud_targetid_name_height, I was able to change the value. (maybe doesn't exist for L4D1).
Btw, I think it is client-sided according to the cvar parameters (that's why on listen sv worked, maybe work using SendConVarValue here too, I don't know if this command works for non-replicated cvars).

PHP Code:

hud_showtargetid                : 1    : "cl" | "launcher"
hud_targetid_health             : 0    : "cl" | "launcher"
hud_targetid_name_height        : 12   : "cl" | "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions
hud_targetid_name_height_boomer : 12   : "cl" | "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions
hud_targetid_name_height_hunter : 10   : "cl" | "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions
hud_targetid_name_height_smoker : 25   : "cl" | "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions
hud_targetid_name_height_tank   : 12   : "cl" | "launcher" : Player names are this many inches over player eye positions
hud_targetid_player_view_cone   : 0.92 : "cl" | "launcher" : View cone for survivors seeing names of other survivors
hud_targetid_pz_ss_view_cone    : 0.98 : "cl" | "launcher" : View cone for seeing player names as a PZ in splitscreen
hud_targetid_rangefinder        :      : "cl" | "cheat"    : shows range for different masks
hud_targetid_skill              : 0    : "cl" | "launcher"
hud_targetid_upgrades           : 0    : "cl" | "launcher" 


And setting cl_glow_brightness to 0 I was able to make even some items in L4D2 don't glow (scavenge)

PHP Code:

cl_glow_brightness : 1 : "cheat" | "cl" : Brightness of player halos

The specific parameters are not known, but I can provide some ideas to see if it is implemented

1. The color of the player name is transparent

2. Player name display location (set to the sky, or underground)

3. Player name font size (too small to be noticeable)

4 Player name distance display (unless two players overlap and are not displayed due to distance)
