GTX

local screenWidth, screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize() cResolutionY = 768-- put your current resoultion Y here cResolutionX = 1360 -- put your current resoultion X here function correctResolutinY(y) if y then return (screenHeight/cResolutionY )*y end end function correctResolutinX(x) if x then return (screenWidth/cResolutionX)*x end end

Yeah, exactly. Got solution anyways: getElementBoundingBox.

Nah, I need it more accurate or names will bug into vehicle.

Hi, how can I calculate position right above the vehicle highly accurately?

Easier way: dxSetTextureEdge(renderTarget, "border", tocolor(255, 255, 255, 100))

Checkpoints are in .map file. Use XML functions to get them.

What??? Change it to your resource name.

There is an awesome way to do circular progress bars without any frame drops. Try shaders.

$ip = "ip"; $port = port; $user = "user"; $pass = "pass"; $resname = "your_resource"; include("sdk/mta_sdk.php"); $mtaServer = new mta($ip,$port,$user,$pass); $resource = $mtaServer->getResource($resname); $table = $resource->call("your_function"); function your_function() -- Whatever end <export function="your_resource" type="server" http="true"/> This? Edit: To set a password, rewrite variables in your PHP SDK file @ lines 18-19

local result = dbPoll(query, 0)

Sorry for bumping this post but I have a (temporary?) solution. Use string.char function. outputChatBox(string.char(231)..", "..string.char(227)..", "..string.char(233)..", "..string.char(226)..", "..string.char(244)..", "..string.char(245)) This should output those below if I'm not mistaken. ç, ã, é, â, ô, õ

Lol? setElementData(source, "member_id", result[1]["member_id"])

Don't compile it, use cache attribute in meta.

Are there any possibilities to do a 3D button in GTA world? Like a button on "drvin_screen" object and you could click it.

Take a look at wiki. -- From Wiki: function fanFunction() bindKey (source,"forwards","down", function(player,key,state) outputChatBox (getPlayerName (player) .. "#FFFF00 thinks Aintaro is cool.",getRootElement(),255,255,0,true) end ) end addEventHandler ("onPlayerLogin",getRootElement(),fanFunction) https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/BindKey

"root" is predefined variable. It's same as getRootElement().

What the hell, Blinker.? Your code is wrong. Hazard|, make sure your meta is written properly. (Must include server side and client side file.)

Server: function getPlayerFromPartialName(name) local name = name and name:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() or nil if name then for _, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do local name_ = getPlayerName(player):gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() if name_:find(name, 1, true) then return player end end end end addCommandHandler("scaree", function(player, command, target) local target = getPlayerFromPartialName(target) if target then triggerClientEvent(target, "scareJumpThem", target) end end ) Client: function drawIt() -- Do whatever. end function scare() addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawIt) end addEvent("scareJumpThem", true) addEventHandler("scareJumpThem", root, scare)

New version (1.1) is available! - Added /whistle. (Shows your blip to everyone. Used to give hunter an advice.) - Fixed nametags. (You could see players' nametags through an object.) I might add stats system in next version.

Okay. First of all, it took me a while to tabulate your code. Secondly, your 2nd argument in your timer included a string. It must be an integer. local criminal1 = { "Criminal", "Street Rat", "0" } local criminal2 = { "Criminal", "Mugger", "100" } local criminal3 = { "Criminal", "Mobster", "200" } local criminal4 = { "Criminal", "Mercenary", "300" } local criminal5 = { "Criminal", "Kingpin", "500" } local police1 = { "Police", "Trainee", "0" } local police2 = { "Police", "Officer", "100" } local police3 = {

civilian4 = { "Civilians", "Trucker", "Hauler", "100" } local civilian5 = { "Civilians", "Trucker", "King of the road", "150" } local emergency1 = { "Emergency", "Medic", "EMT", "0" } local emergency2

My old alias script. I hope it still works. addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, function() executeSQLQuery("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `players` (`serial` TEXT, `mute` TEXT, `alias` TEXT)") end ) addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() local serial = getPlayerSerial(source) local name = getPlayerName(source) local r = executeSQLQuery("SELECT `mute`,`alias` FROM `players` WHERE `serial`=?", serial) if #r == 0 then executeSQLQuery("INSERT INTO `players` (`serial`,`mute`,`alias`) VALUES(?,?,?)", serial, "no", name) else if r[1]["mute"] == "yes" then setPlayerMuted(source, true) outputChatBox(name:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", "").." has been muted by Console!", root, 255, 0, 0, true) end end end ) addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", root, function() if isPlayerMuted(source) then else end end ) addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, function() setAlias(source) end ) addEventHandler("onPlayerChangeNick", root, function() setTimer(setAlias, 100, 1, source) end ) function setAlias(source) local find = true local name = getPlayerName(source) local serial = getPlayerSerial(source) local r = executeSQLQuery("SELECT `mute`,`alias` FROM `players` WHERE `serial`=?", serial) for i,v in ipairs(split(r[1]['alias'], 32)) do if v == name then find = false end end if find then executeSQLQuery("UPDATE `players` SET `mute`=?, `alias`=?

Use getLocalPlayer() Instead of player.

local fuel = math.floor(getElementData(vehicle, "fuel")) This? Edit: Oh, you want to get progress from progress bar? If so: local fuel = math.floor(guiProgressBarGetProgress(progressbar))

Alright, I made it working. All I had to do is put \r\n to define new lines. (I think MTA hates Unix EOL conversions at meta). Thank you all for your time.

Nah. I double-triple checked. Working meta is same as non-working meta. Position of those nodes is important because my common_messages.lua is having wrapper, which disables outputChatBox function.
