Every player has he's own vehicle, so before spawning the vehicle i want the player to see a dummy version of the vehicle client dided before we spawn it server sided

Thats exactly why I want to create a Vehicle client sided, I want the user to preview the car before he actually spawns it

Ohh ok thats why..can you explain why that is?

Hello guys, my vehicle color won't change to the color I want it to be, here is my simple command to spawn a vehicle with a certain color : function colorVehicle() local x,y,z = getElementPosition(getLocalPlayer()) -- get the position of the player x = x + 5 local vehicleShowz = createVehicle ( 491, x, y, z) setVehicleColor(vehicleShowz, 255, 0, 0) end addCommandHandler("spawnVehicle", colorVehicle) Anybody help? Thanks in addvance, Aintaro

thanks man ,I didn't know that

Alright, thanks a lot for sharing your opinion!

Ello guys, Aintaro here with another question for you... How would you setup the saving for vehicle attributes? Option 1: xml file for every user with all the owned vehiclrd in it and attributes Option 2: using the mta database and save the attributes server sided for every player Option 3: sql Option 4: something else? Thanks in advance, Greetz aintaro

Hello guys, The problem is I want my server sided function to finish before it executes the triggerClientEvent. Here is the code server sided: local vc1, vc2, vc3, vc4 function spawnOwnedVehicle(source, commandName, vehicleType) for y = 1, table.getn(playerVehicle) do outputChatBox(vehicleType) --if (playerVehicle[y] == tonumber(vehicleType)) then --found vehicle now load colors plx for x = 1, 5 do --outputChatBox(tostring(playerVehicle[y][x])) if (x == 2) then vc1 = playerVehicle[y][x] --loading colors outputChatBox(vc1) elseif (x == 3) then vc2 = playerVehicle[y][x] --loading colors elseif( x== 4) then vc3 = playerVehicle[y][x] --loading colors elseif (x== 5) then vc4 = playerVehicle[y][x] --loading colors end end --end end outputChatBox("Server send the trigger") triggerClientEvent ( "spawnPersonalVehicle", getRootElement(), spawnPersonalVehicle, vehicleType, vc1, vc2, vc3, vc4) --send the configs to the client so we can spawn this vehicle end addCommandHandler("spawnvehicles", spawnOwnedVehicle, source) code client sided : function spawnPersonalVehicle(localPlayer, pvehicleId, pvc1, pvc2 ,pvc3, pvc4) outputChatBox("Client got the server trigger") outputChatBox(pvehicleId) outputChatBox("pvc1"..pvc1) outputChatBox("pvc2"..pvc2) outputChatBox("pvc3"..pvc3) outputChatBox("pvc4"..pvc4) local x, y , z = getElementPosition(source) local personalVehicle = createVehicle ( getVehicleNameFromModel ( tonumber(pvehicleId) ), x + 5, y, z) setVehicleColor ( personalVehicle, tonumber(pvc1), tonumber(pvc2), tonumber(pvc3), tonumber(pvc4)) end addEvent("spawnPersonalVehicle", true) addEventHandler("spawnPersonalVehicle", root, spawnPersonalVehicle) output : Client got the server trigger [some parameters] Server send the trigger ps : No idea why lua tags are not working Thanks in advance, Greetz Aintaro

Hello guys, How would I write a simple dxdraw method where the font size is adjusted to the screen resolution? I know dxdraw has a optional scaleX and scaleY as arguments for the method but I just don't know how to write it. Thanks , aintaro

The Interfaces look very nice man, keep up the great work

ohh, I think i'm running 1.3

@solidsnake: yes @jr10 : Oh to bad, i'll have to wait until 1.4 then, is there no cheap fix for it? cuz I hate when the server keeps saying event already running

Hello mta people, How do I check if an event is already running? Thanks, Aintaro

thanks arnold, thats what I wanted

those would only tell if we hit a marker, but not a CERTAIN marker

Hello guys, Lets say you have 100 markers on the map, how would you go and write a code that checks if a CERTAIN marker has been hit by the player? thanks in advance, greetz aintaro

oh thats right, makes sense, thanks again mate, impressive knowledge of mta you have there up in your brain

Hello guys, I was wondering what should be put client sided and what server sided? For example: is it safe to give a player money client sided when he gets in a mark? Can you set a player skin client sided? is that safe? I'm a bit confused on what to add client sided and what server sided. If sombody can clarifiy a bit It would help my server architecture a lot! Thanks in advance, Aintaro
