A discussion on an existing resource - slrfuel?

Gamesnert · August 14, 2008

no dp2.3 doesnt use the registry strings Username and Serial at all

OHNOZ! Then we're doomed!! (until dp2.4 or maybe until dp3...)

we could infact do it the older mtarace way lol, save everything to a players name lol and not serial for the time being, and make the player login using there password, so that other people cannot steel money, etc ....

I just gave up on it for now, my head is racing with other scripts anyway. Never the less I like this one better than the other fuel script thats out it's just that nothing saves, like you have 50 percent fuel and when u re-enter the vehicle its reset AND none of the blips work... maybe because I have dp2.3. Sadly im using the other fuel script until this one is done. Sorry I cant offer any help as far as scripting and I hope you guys tackle this problem because this script is the BEST fuel script I've seen EVER. GoodLuck!!!

I used dp2.1 and 0 and I had that also, I think its just the way the script is designed. It holds the value clientside. You can fix the blips though, there stored in a map file and for some reason they don;t work from there so you just have to take them out and add them manually in lua.

Bad Points

1.) it doesnt hold any values client side

2.) the blips are created in the script not a .map file

Good Points

i have been working on a house, there for the progress of this script has been very slow, now the house has just been finnished yesterday, so i have a lot of free time to crack on with it, the time that i have had i have been making the script use SQL and not XML, the script doesnt use the players serial anymore but you are asked to login using your password specified, when you first join the sever, im sorry it has to be done this way untill the dp3 is released, and also i had a discussion with Codemaster lastnight about what happens when a player runs out of fuel and cannot reach the fuel station, that will alll be resolved soon, well when dp3 comes out because i need peds to make it work

anyway keep checking back here and i will keep you informed about it, i should have updated the resources ither by to-night(providing i dont have to go out) or tomorrow night

other than that please can some one do a appropriate list of whats not working due to the serial problems, it allworks for me because i have got a serial so.. i cannot find out unless i make another email-> another account.

thanks

The only difference between dp2.1 and dp2.3 is that getPlayerUserName returns "DP2.3" and getPlayerSerial returns "0000-0000-0000-0000". The client doesn't do anything with the registry.

Why not do what I suggested in the meantime, if it's possible, fade the camera, move the player and his vehicle to the nearest garage, spawn a recovery vehicle alongside it, and fade the camera back in to make it look like someone came and brought you and your vehicle to the nearest garage?

haybail · August 18, 2008

I love that idea. Nice and simple.

[UVA]Bart · August 19, 2008
