    When a player or entity is invisible but on your same scoreboard team it will appear semi-transparent

    This is used by many anti-cheat plugins, those plugins will spawn ghost players behind the player FOV to monitor the behavior of the player
    The problem is that those players are recorded by the ReplayMod and show up in the replay

    Note that you can't disable the visibility of those players or entities in the Player Overview screen because the ghost players are duplicates of other normal players, meaning they have the same name (and possibly the same UUID?)
    Toggling off the ghost player will toggle off the regular player too




    This video demonstrates the issue

    You can disable the rendering of invisible entities in the ReplayMod settings.

    Not in 2.0.0 right?
    I remember this was a feature in the old version of the mod but i can't find that setting in 2.0.0 b5

    I blame @User10 for not re-adding it, then

    Turns out invisible entities aren't being rendered anymore by default, but that doesn't affect invisible players in your team, because rendering them is intended behaviour.

    So having those ghosts in the video is intended behavior?

    Yes it is, as they are entities of your team.

    Is it possible to implement the setting to make them fully invisible/not rendering them?

    I understand this is not a bug, but it'd be nice if you could toggle the rendering of those invisible entities as it can sometimes be a distraction in the video, i know that some servers might use this to make ghosts, but it's clearly not part of the regular gameplay in my video example
