does it need to be an armor stand or could it be an item display or text display entity?

(there are ways for armorstands as well, just wanna get the easier options out of the way first)

it can be anything

text displays seem to be bugged tho

I tried replicating exactly what this guy did but it doesn’t work

[icy fox]

how so?

I downloaded the rp in the video

and summoned a text display

doesn’t display anything

And the workaround I know for armor stands is to just have a (large) negative sized character at the front and end of the name (cause that shadow is based on text length).
Though afaik text displays would have the option of not having a shadow box in the first place.

the name in the chat does show the font correctly

I think I used to do that, it broke now tho

what version of MC are you using?

also, idk why they are giving a TEXT DISPLAY entity a name to begin with?

/summon text_display ~ ~ ~ {text:'{"text":"\\\\u0003","font":"customfontimages"}'} You can just do this, it doesn't need a name

I tried that too it didn’t work
