or could someone make it.

or could someone just make something that creates Paintspots, then i can make it comeout of an weapon.

please help.

someone?

I actually played on a server with exploding bullets last night (was hella fun ) and it reminded me of the paintball tutorial. I would like to see this too, is the source for that script available? I don't think it was ever part of the scripting tutorials, but I'd love to get the sample for it

it's the same deal, you don't create explosions but a small corona (you might wanna attach it if the element is moving, for example a player)

thx, i am gonna try this ^^,

edit: it kinda worked but the limit just let me shoot 64

you can shoot more but GTA limits the visible coronas to 64

you can try with onClientWeaponFire, it has a hitElement argument, if that exists you need to calculate the offsets ( a bit tricky ) and attach the marker to it

thanx, i am trying it.

getElementPosition the element it hitted

offsetx=elementx-hitx

offsety=elementy-hity

offsetz=elementz-hitz

then you set XYZ of corona to elementz+offsetx

[norby89]

offsetx=elementx-hitx

offsety=elementy-hity

offsetz=elementz-hitz

then you set XYZ of corona to elementz+offsetx

I believe it's not that easy because of the way attachElementToElement works, for example if you attach an orb to a player with the ( 0 -1 0 ) offsets, the orb will always be positioned to the back of the player regardless of his rotation

however you can calculate the right offsets using trigonometry
