2 questions about Race

[DakiLLa]

Hi. I have two questions about Race module in Mta deathmatch:

-How to make non-tight cars like in TrackMania? with this function easy to drive on map and make your own time records which i need cse we have championships on our server.

-And second: Is anybody have table of records for any map? i saw it on one server, but i think it's too difficult for me to make it, so, can any help me to make simple table of records for race-maps in dm?

This topic board is on DM not race, i think its better off there.

-Non-tight cars... You mean ghosts? I think that that would

1. Be REALLY difficult

2. You might need peds... =/ (or maybe moveObject helps. Still, you need to make exact waypoints.)

-Yes I remember that too! I had a record!

Anyway, you need to heavily mod the race module. They had changed it quite much to make records, and for as far as I know, they're not willing to share the code.

However, if you REALLY want it, I think you need to know how to mod Race resource and I guess you need to know something about MySQL, which seems the best solution for this kind of use.

Helpful links for MySQL:

-MTA-MySQL --Note that you need to download the module!

-MySQL tutorial --Note that you need to execute things like "SELECT blah..." with mysql_query. And don't forget you sometimes need to use things like mysql_fetch_row for some functions.

Hopefully something of this post will help you.

i saw this function on Revolution Crew server, and I thought that is not difficult..but if it is, so, i go to learn mysql

Good choice. I never thought I'd use MySQL, but it's actually quite good!

enabling the ghost mode is pretty easy just add this line to the meta.xml of the resource that contains the race map you want to play in ghostmode:

<setting name="#ghostmode" value="true"/> 

example:

<meta> 
   <info type="map" gamemodes="race" name="Map name" author="Author name" description="Map description" version="Map version number"/> 
   <race src="Map file.map"/> 
   <settings> 
      <setting name="#ghostmode" value="true"/> 
   </settings> 
</meta>

oO thx Mr.Hankey! See, it's not too difficult!

Well, I made a record script for the PotholeStudios server, which is as far as I know the only record script for DM:Race at the moment. If you want more info reply here or even better contact me on the PotholeStudios forums (http://www.potholestudios.com).
