Well, you can't encrypt anything (compiling != encrypting) and for models there's just nothing you can do to protect anything... It sucks, but when using client-side scripts and data there's always an implied risk of it becoming "public domain" whether you like it or not. Anyways, a car mod needs a model and like 2 lines of code, so it's not really something you can keep to yourself.

A: Who didn't Q: Is 1.0.4/1.0 coming out this year?

Look at the code again. You're messing up the strings in outputChatBox. And use debugscript.

I have posted this on several websites and recieved these messages, this was my first creation in VB and it saves navigating to websites and opening command prompt to go on ipconfig. 1. i think most ppl have their browser running all the time 2. creating a batch file: @ipconfig /all @pause and running it from desktop like your app its easier 3. .NET is VERY UGLY thing (and VisualBasic too).. better don't stick with it.. 4. that's all i wanted to say Come on now, stop finding excuses. When someone actually releases something useful, whining about it isn't really what you want to do, because that decreases the chances of that someone actually bothering to release anything in the future. 1) I'd rather make a shortcut out of this and click that twice instead of 1-2 clicks or keystrokes to open a new tab, then entering the URL (14 keystrokes) + enter. 2) If you have a lot of NICs there'll be a flood with ipconfig /all and that means this is way simpler as you won't have to search through a wall of text.. 3) No, it's not. If you're gonna randomly whine about something, please do at least provide reasons. (But not here as it's not what the topic is about.) Besides, you're wrong. .NET is cool. I won't argue for VB, though. It's a bitch. Well, to actually get on-topic here: You might want to do the work on another thread than the GUI is on, as this long pause which makes the main form unresponsive is not pretty. Other than that, it's a nice program, I guess. Certainly nicer than batch...

And.. please stop posting 2, 6 or 250 million times in a row. There is an edit button, you can use that for adding information to your posts. Bumping should be used carefully, not every other second. These forums aren't active enough to ensure an answer within a couple of hours, especially when you don't even manage to ask your questions properly! PLEASE, try to be patient. As a general rule, you should bump at MOST once in 24 hours and use the edit button wherever you can..

It doesn't exist... However, for example, you could do something like function toboolean(x) if x == "true" then return true; end if x == "false" then return false; end error("toboolean: unexpected input: " .. tostring(x) ); end

There's no toboolean.. if it returns a string, check whether it's "true". For extra "security" you can also check if it's "false". (If it's neither, you're obviously getting something unexpected.)

Trust me, redrawing HUD with GUI is partly ok, partly difficult, partly f**king impossible (radar), but a simple health bar is no biggie.

Having non-standard characters in resource names probably isn't a good idea anyways. Keep to alphanumerical and underscore (_), it should be enough and is definitely safe.

How people in SA-MP map is their problem (a fact for which I am profoundly grateful) and I don't see any reason to help them. I suppose most people here have the same view on this subject as I do.

There may be a small possibility of me actually bothering to repair and reopen my scripting guide. Instead of spending time doing work that people don't care about, though, I might as well use it on something I find entertaining (as soon as I find it, and which in this particular case isn't really true anymore,) and for that reason I want to do a quick check. I'm not making any promises and I want that clearly understood right at the outset. To be honest, I stopped caring about the guide some time ago, and this idea only occurred to me due to boredom.. If someone can come up with reasons to motivate me more, that'd be nice. Simple boredom and lack of other things to do isn't really the most powerful motivator in the world...

I will openly admit to not being too sure about this, but I think "frozen" is a state that's synced between server or client. Otherwise there'd be sync problems since you could "freeze" someone in mid-air client-side and other clients would see him falling... I also don't think frozen has any effect on animations.

There's a resource named Parachute. Maybe you're not running it.

Or get it from the admin panel. Those 250-something xml files shouldn't be necessary to use in more than one resource.

source is nil. Are you sure you're doing it in an event handler? Either way, add a debug output with tostring(source) and see what it is. And if you can't figure it out, please try to post as much as your script as possible. Preferably the whole file. It makes it a lot easier for people to figure out.

First of all, kudos on writing the first help topic I've seen in a looong time that didn't make me want to facepalm. The first thing I'd do in your position is get a copy of the game that I could be sure of. I'm not gonna encourage anything illegal here, but on "sites" you would want something close to 4.5GB (possibly a little less) and ideally an ISO. Point is, don't go for some ripped bullsh*t with a drastically reduced file size, because that is usually begging for trouble. So uninstall/delete/whatever your current version and get a new one. If that doesn't work, check system specs and try a driver update (graphics probably being the most critical, but update what you can) Good luck.

I get it! "Son.. Im proud you!"

Just don't draw it... it's drawn every frame as long as it stays visible. And... wtf is with your sig? 0.o

I'm starting to love how worthless threads are turned into bullsh*t that doesn't have anything to do with the original topic. So what did you have for dinner?

Maybe you should start exhibiting some indications of having a brain before you call others "nub."

trololo

that wasnt nesseccary But pretty funny, I thought. I can't really pretend that I don't have any sympathy for people who don't answer something that's being asked in a very poor fashion (á la "gimme this plx") for the n billionth time, either.

You either draw it, or you don't. That's something you can choose pretty easily onClientRender.

I don't see the reason in creating a topic here (especially with *Coming Today* in it) when it's still download-less after two days. And if you're gonna compile it, why bother.
