You can still do it with inkey. Just use a Font without the ( _ ) Char and it wont display while using inkey. I dont know If there is another way to hide the Cursor.

Simply use a Bitmap Font in your Text def instead a truetype Font.
Code
TEXT* name_txt = 
{
       pos_x = 320;
       pos_y = 70;
       layer = 11;
       font = "Calibri#52";   // use bitmap font here, instead of true type
       string(name_str);
       flags = SHOW;
}


edit:
Example of a bitmap font, i already removed the ( _ ) char:
[Linked Image]
Code
FONT* example_tga = "font.tga"; // the example file above
TEXT* name_txt = 
{
       pos_x = 320;
       pos_y = 70;
       layer = 11;
       font = example_tga;
       string(name_str);
       flags = SHOW;
}

This way (i guess at least) the ( _ ) char wont be displayed when using inkey.
