I've been working on a script that realistically manipulates the wheels. I've gotten to the point I can hide the original wheels, in hopes I can later attach a new set in the same place. I'm aware I might have to use attachElements, and several other functions. For the moment, I'd like to attach a single wheel. I've got this: -- All GUI elements. local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) local x1, y1, z1 = getVehicleComponentPosition(vehicle, "wheel_lf_dummy") local x2, y2, z2 = getVehicleComponentPosition(vehicle, "wheel_rf_dummy") local x3, y3, z3 = getVehicleComponentPosition(vehicle, "wheel_lb_dummy") local x4, y4, z4 = getVehicleComponentPosition(vehicle, "wheel_rb_dummy") local function replace1 () attachElements (1097, vehicle, x1, y2, z1, 0, 0, 0) end addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick", set1, replace1, false) -- Function runs when button called 'set1' is clicked. -- Everything else. Here's my thought process: First, I get the player's vehicle. Then, I get the position of all four wheels in the player's vehicle, and represent them with x1, y1 and z1. With all wheels hidden by another function, I then attach the wheel model in the same place as the front left wheel. At the moment, I'm only aiming at the position; I'll handle the rotation later. DB 3 can't identify '1097', and thus asks for a valid element. Am I on the right path?

I've been working on my own server for a few weeks now. After adding mods for vehicles, weapons and skins rocketed it to aproximatelly 500mb. I've found servers that are filled with skins, great mappings, scripts and more, and they weight around 200mbs. They have more skins, a lot more scripts and complex functions, new textures for buildings; basically, a complete make-over. I've only heard about the word "compiling". I'm confident there are other ways to reduce the weight for the client. Is there such thing as "server-side mods"? These are the heaviest. Maybe moving them server-side reduces the downloaded content significantly.

I made this: -- All other functions and GUI creation. -- [...] -- Created button called "fbumper". local function setFBumper() local theVeh7 = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) if theVeh7 then setVehicleComponentVisible(theVeh7, "bump_front_dummy", false) end end addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", fbumper, setFBumper, false) -- Everything else... It works. Then I wanted to have the button switch between true to false when clicked. Something like: local function setFBumper() local theVeh7 = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) if theVeh7 then setVehicleComponentVisible(theVeh7, "bump_front_dummy", false) elseif getVehicleComponentVisible(theVeh7) == "false" then setVehicleComponentVisible(theVeh7, "bump_front_dummy", true) end end addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", fbumper, setFBumper, false) guiSetVisible (vehmod, false) It doesn't work correctly. It sets it invisible, but it doesn't return the state to visible. I also thought about using the setVehicleComponentVisible (not setVehicleComponentVisible) to make it a little bit more compact. I'm using a setEngineState script to help myself, but I don't know how to use it with these arguments. DB 3 throws nothing. What am I doing wrong?

I decided to dive into the world of rotations. I know this might be incomplete and even incorrect: function openCapo() local theVeh = getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) local value1 = guiScrollBarGetScrollPosition(caposcroll) if theVeh and value1 then setVehicleComponentRotation (theVeh, bonnet_dummy, value1, rY, rZ) end end I've a GUI already created, and the visibility key bound. The first scrollbar (caposcroll) should affect the bonnet_dummy. This was made with absolute basic thinking process: "if I want doors to open, I need to get the position of the scrollbar". However, I know I still need to tell the game what's the math.min, what's the math.max, and, I think, to also give the order to respond only when the scrollbar is moved. I would appreciate a finger to point me in the right direction.

Hello, everybody! I'm following this tutorial to make a GUI with a car spawning function. Copy/pasting everything works up until the gridlist. The click doesn't. Could there be a mistake? I recreated the script on my own following step by step: - Client-side - And here is the problematic part: The GUI elements are the same. The only thing that changes are the names. Naturally, it should work by simply replacing the names. However, I believe there might be a mistake on the original script. With everything as it is, I can show and hide the GUI, and click on any vehicle. If I purposely trigger an output, nothing happens. So, waddaya think?

I have this: -- 2 points on each city. local spawnCoords = { {1125, -2036, 69.89, -90}, {2504, -1686, 13.55, 45}, {-1972, 643, 46.57, -45}, {-2720, -317, 7.85, 45}, {2023, 1008, 10.83, -90}, {1298, 2084, 12.83, -90}, } -- all skins. local validSkins = {0, 1, 2, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164, 165, 166, 167, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 173, 174, 175, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185, 186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 195, 196, 197, 198, 199, 200, 201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 209, 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 217, 218, 219, 220, 221, 222, 223, 224, 225, 226, 227, 228, 229, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 247, 248, 250, 251, 252, 253, 254, 255, 256, 257, 258, 259, 260, 261, 262, 263, 264, 265, 266, 267, 268, 269, 270, 271, 272, 274, 275, 276, 277, 278, 279, 280, 281, 282, 283, 284, 285, 286, 287, 288, 290, 291, 292, 293, 294, 295, 296, 297, 298, 299, 300, 301, 302, 303, 304, 305, 306, 307, 308, 309, 310, 311, 312} function spawnPoints (player) local x,y,z,r = unpack(spawnCoords[math.random(1,#spawnCoords)]) spawnPlayer(source, x, y, z, r, validSkins[math.random(1,#validSkins)]) fadeCamera(source, true) setCameraTarget(source, source) end addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), spawnPoints) Althought it works, after giving it several tests, I realized the spawn locations where always in the same order, as well as the skins. Coincidentally, I've reached the tables subject in the MTA's tutorial, and I learned about <for key, value in pairs(table) do>. Contrary to "ipairs", "pairs" is supposed to give you a random reading throughout the table everytime the script is ran. I used 'broph.Lua' as a way to understand the process, and to make sure that if I do the same, it'll work. My small knowledge told me that, by adding <for key, value in pairs(spawnCoords) do> right after the beginning of the function, I would get the random effect of the table reading. However, the result is far from what I expected: it destroys the function, and the player doesn't spawn at all (black screen). I'm continuing the tutorial, but 'in pairs' is the last thing NanoBob mentions about the tables. This time, I'd like a bit of a challenge, so if you could give me the hints and point me in the right direction, I would appreciate that.

Here's the script: inFourD = createMarker (2019.76953125, 1007.0116577148, 9.7203125, "cylinder", 1, 255, 0, 0, 153) function inFourDragons (player, matchingDimension) if (source == inFourD) and (getElementType(player) == "player") and (isPedInVehicle(localPlayer) == true) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: No se permiten vehículos dentro.", hitPlayer, 0, 0, 0, true) elseif (source == inFourD) and (getElementType(player) == "player") and (isPedInVehicle(localPlayer) == false) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: Ingresaste al casino '#DD0000Four Dragons#FFFFFF'.", hitPlayer, 0, 0, 0, true) setElementInterior (player, 10) setElementPosition (player, 2016.9376220703, 1017.0843505859, 996.875 ) setElementRotation (player, 0, 0, 90) end end addEventHandler ("onMarkerHit", getRootElement(), inFourDragons) Doing it client-side gives the invisible players. I read an old post that this had to be done server-side to fix the invisible players; however, I can't pinpoint the problem. As of this moment, with this script: - When in vehicle, player + vehicle is teleported to the same coords and interior 10, which results in an invisible world, player and vehicle, and it outputs "You've entered FDC.", when it should enter "Cars are not allowed". - When on foot, nothing happens. What could be the problem?

I've made a server-type .Lua that should apply several 'setWeaponProperties' to the weapons. It works for some weapons, but not for others. For example, I've set the Deagle (replaced with a 6 bullet drum) to 'maxiumum_clip_ammo' = 6. This works correctly. However, with other weapons, it doesn't. Here's the script: function weaponProps () -- M9 -- setWeaponProperty(22, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 14) -- Revolver -- setWeaponProperty(24, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 6) -- Shotgun -- setWeaponProperty(25, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 7) -- Uzi -- setWeaponProperty(28, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 30) -- AKMS -- setWeaponProperty(30, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 35) -- G36 -- setWeaponProperty(31, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 40) -- Kar -- setWeaponProperty(33, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 5) -- Mosin -- setWeaponProperty(34, "pro", "maximum_clip_ammo", 1) end addEventHandler ("onResourceStart", getRootElement(), weaponProps) Essentially, it runs as soon as the resource is started. As a beginner's test, I'm only modifying the max ammo clip. It works for: - Deagle (Revolver) - Shotgun - AK-47 (AKMS) - M4 (G36) - Rifle (Kar) - Sniper (Mosin) It doesn't work for: - Colt (M9) - UZI

I recently dove into this simple thing called "scripting and building a server". Naturally —added to my already curious personality—, I always come up with a doubt, a question, or any sort of uncertainty. After a week of messing around with it, I noticed that 5 of the 10 last posts made in the Script section were from me. I was having so much fun —truthfully— that I just kept on finding new things to ask. I'm pretty sure they are common questions. I'm not asking to have a script from scratch, or to be taught absolutely everything. It is most commonly about errors and to help myself understand the colloquial language of the scripts. However, I can't help but think that maybe it's not the best approach. I always think to myself "try to find it on your own", but I frenquently find myself getting even more confused the more I tour into each command and function. Is there a certain tacit limit as to how many questions can be asked? Is there any way to get the necessary help without flooding the sections?

I've been messing around with 'setWeaponProperty' in order to understand how it works. I changed how the deagle is handled. Decided to undo the changes and, upon resetting everything, the weapon bugged. Image Any script with 'setWeaponProperty' has been removed, and the resource has been stopped and removed from metaserver.conf. Fixed after several restarts and total wipe of downloaded resources.

I've found six issues so far. Being alone, everything seemed fine; with players, these issues are visible. For the sake of organization and to avoid overwhelming, I'll be going through each issue (if possible), instead of throwing everything at once —unless asked otherwise—. First in the list is about client.Lua's 'outputChatBox' showing to everyone in the chatbox: I've got two scripts in this moment that are causing said inconvenient: a quick ATM system and a teleport system. The ATM is a simple marker that, when hit, gives you $500, and outputs that information. The teleports work the same way, but instead, the set the interior, position and rotation of the player, and output a message. ATM: Client: (this example's location is at LV's gas station, next to Four Dragon's Casino). atm1 = createMarker (2123.0048828125, 897.57653808594, 10.1796875, "cylinder", 1, 0, 100, 0, 170) function moneyLawn (hitPlayer, matchingDimension) if (source == atm1) and (isPedInVehicle(hitPlayer) == false) then triggerServerEvent ("givePlayerMoney", hitPlayer) outputChatBox ("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: El servidor te regaló #006400$500.", 0, 0, 0, true) end end (translation: "The server gave you $500") Server: function giveToPlayer () givePlayerMoney (root, 500) end addEvent ("giveMoney", true) addEventHandler ("giveMoney", root, giveToPlayer) Because of its close relation, I'll also name another issue regarding this script. The money is being given to all players in the server, and it is being multiplied by each player. This means that is, for example, I have 3 players in my server, when any player touches the marker, each player will be given $500 x amountOfPlayers = $1500. Teleports: (I have a few other teleports, but they only change interior and position). Client: ------------------------- -- FOUR DRAGONS CASINO -- ------------------------- inFourD = createMarker (2019.76953125, 1007.0116577148, 9.7203125, "cylinder", 1, 255, 0, 0, 153) function inFourDragons (hitPlayer, matchingDimension) if (source == inFourD) and (isPedInVehicle(hitPlayer) == true) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: No se permiten vehículos dentro.", 0, 0, 0, true) elseif (source == inFourD) and (isPedInVehicle(hitPlayer) == false) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: Ingresaste al casino '#DD0000Four Dragons#FFFFFF'.", 0, 0, 0, true) setElementInterior (hitPlayer, 10) setElementPosition (hitPlayer, 2016.9376220703, 1017.0843505859, 996.875 ) setElementRotation (hitPlayer, 0, 0, 90) end end addEventHandler ("onClientMarkerHit", root, inFourDragons) outFourD = createMarker (2018.9376220703, 1017.0843505859, 995.875, "cylinder", 1, 255, 0, 0, 153) setElementInterior (outFourD, 10) function outFourDragons (hitPlayer, matchingDimension) if (source == outFourD) and (isPedInVehicle(hitPlayer) == true) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: No se permiten vehículos dentro.", 0, 0, 0, true) elseif (source == outFourD) and (isPedInVehicle(hitPlayer) == false) then outputChatBox("#D2691E[#FF7F50INFO#D2691E]#FFFFFF: Te retiraste del casino '#DD0000Four Dragons#FFFFFF'.", 0, 0, 0, true) setElementInterior (hitPlayer, 0) setElementPosition (hitPlayer, 2021.76953125, 1007.0116577148, 10.7203125 ) setElementRotation (hitPlayer, 0, 0, 90) end end addEventHandler ("onClientMarkerHit", root, outFourDragons) [translation: (if player in veh) "No cars allowed". (if player not in veh) "You've entered/exited "Four Dragons" casino".] There is no server. This similar post, which I'm following, says that in client-side, the output is bound to be shown just for the player who triggered the event. -

I've successfully created a marker that triggers 'givePlayerMoney' and 'outputChatBox' when 'onClientMarkerHit' in a client.Lua. Does the server see the amount of money the player now has? Do I have to sync the money to the server with some kind of 'getPlayerMoney' in a server.Lua? I'm planning on making a weapons GUI that works with the player's money.

First, I began with this: When entering either marker, you are taken to the specified location. It works perfectly. Both markers take me to the desired location in San Andreas' map. I moved them around and changed the shape of the marker just to be sure. There were no problems. Then, I found this: This is supposed to teleport you into the specified interior (nº0), and the coordinates next to the interior (x, y, z) The chatbox outputs the expected message. However, there is no teleporting to the specified place. The function 'setElementInterior' looks good, judging by what the wiki says. What am I missing? Something tells me it's a very obvious error I'm failing to see.

I'm daring myself to add more little things to the tutorials shown here. It's of great pleasure to announce that the following code works. I know it is not much, but it's one more step closer to my dream server. So, function joinHandler() spawnPlayer(source, 2023, 1008, 10.83, -90, math.random (1,288)) fadeCamera(source, true) setCameraTarget(source, source) outputChatBox("¡Bienvenido!", source) end addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), joinHandler) You can skip the spanish words. The result is as expected: when the player joins, the chatbox shows the text, the player is looking at the east, and the skin is randomized between 1 and 288. However, the camera is aiming at its default value: 0. The result has a rather inconvenient detail: the camera is looking at the right side of the character's body. UPDATE: I added setPedCameraRotation. There are no errors being detected, but the camera is not changing at all. function joinHandler() spawnPlayer(source, 2023, 1008, 10.83, -90, math.random (1,288)) fadeCamera(source, true) setCameraTarget(source, source) setPedCameraRotation(source, 90) outputChatBox("¡Bienvenido!", source) end addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), joinHandler) How can I modify where the camera is looking at when a player joins, so that way it looks at the same place the character is looking?
-
Scrolling through the tutorials, I found a script that displays players in the server when joining and quitting. function playerCount ( ) outputChatBox("#ff8800[server]: #ffffffPlayers: #ffffff(" .. getPlayerCount() .. "#ffffff)" , root, 255, 0, 0, true) end addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), playerCount ) addEventHandler ( "onPlayerQuit", getRootElement(), playerCount ) What would I have to add to trigger it with a command, such as "/players"?

I'm having trouble translating the scripts into colloquial language (to build the concepts in my head and understand what happens and what triggers the events). My ultimate objective is to add a help window that shows the functions of my server. This is what I researched so far: *I know some things may be obvious to the experienced developer. My intension is to "think out loud" so, if I'm mistaken, the reader(s) will point out my errors. With a stock MTA, pressing 'F9' (resource: helpmanager) opens a help window that shows two tabs: 'votemanager' and 'freeroam'. Respectively, each are run by their own resource that go by the same names. This means that if I stop one, the tab will be gone; If I stop both, there will be no tabs visible. Therefore, it is safe to say that both tabs are being added by a script (the window elements creation, the text, the size, etc), into the 'helpmanager' help window. While I can edit either tab to show the desired info, if I plan on stopping both resources (votemanager and freeroam) from starting in the near future, they will not be visible. Thus, the only path left I have is to add a script of my own that will only show the desired info in a new tab on the 'F9' help window. My questions are: - How can I create a text inside new tab inside the window of another script? *I know how to create a window. My issue is creating an uneditable text inside the window of a different resource. - How can I stop 'votemanager' and 'freeroam' from starting when the server.exe is ran. *I've tried looking for the resource in mtaserver.conf, but I can't find any trace of a resource that's related to freeroam. I do want to keep 'play', for the moment.

[SOLVED] Hello, MTA community. Recently, I've started practicing setting up a server and building it. I've been dowloading seemingly simple resources to get the hand of .Lua, .xml, the admin panel, and whatnot. I found this compass, which adds the compass from PUBG. It is a horizontal scrolling ruler on the top center of the screen. North and south show as they should, but the east and west are inverted; not because of the text, it's because of the scrolling being inverted. In other words, if the player turns the camera to the right side of the character, the compass scrolls to the right (it should be the opposite of where the player is turning the camera). Similarly, if the player turns the camera to the left side of the character, the compass scrolls to the left. It's my first time posting about server development. If you wish to see the .Lua or .xml files, don't hesitate on asking. UPDATE: After trying to read and understanding a few items of the client.Lua, I realized that the solution would be to invert the value. If the compass moves along with the camera, I need to invert the movement, so it moves contrary to the camera's X axis. Line nº40 is <local _, _, r = getElementRotation(getCamera())>. Is this the one I need to invert? How can I do so?

Estoy siguiendo este tutorial. Al momento, tengo esto: El script está ubicado dentro de una carpeta ("client"), y el archivo se llama "gui.Lua". El meta.xml está editado de tal manera que vaya a buscar el script a cliente/gui.Lua. He reducido el script a elementos más simples para testear las partes. Al momento, solo tengo habilitada la ventana; todo el resto está removido. No funciona. No tengo errores en la consola, pero tampoco tengo una ventana en el juego. ¿Es posible que el tutorial tenga errores o esté desactualizado? ¿El error lo estoy cometiendo yo? ¿Cómo lo puedo arreglar? Descubrí que tengo muchos errores y elementos faltantes. No pude encontrar alguna función para eliminar el post.

[SOLVED] This will certainly be a beginner's subject. The folder [gameplay], located in "Resources", is filled with .rar files. I want to edit 'help.xml', which is inside "freeroam.rar". I tried extracting everything into a new folder called "freeroam", but my server is not detecting said folder. I'm sure I'm ignoring a command somewhere that's failing to locate the folder (might be written to only locate "freeroam.rar"). What can I do to reach the file, modify it, and keep the freeroam files working?
