GUI doesn't show up....

[kevin433]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a GUI, but it doesn't show up when a client connects. That's my code, I've got no errors:

function LoginWindow()
--LOGIN FENSTER
LoginFenster = guiCreateWindow(382,291,345,222,"Bitte einloggen!",false)
guiWindowSetMovable(LoginFenster,false)
guiWindowSetSizable(LoginFenster,false)
--NICKNAME TEXT
Nickname = guiCreateLabel(20,59,65,17,"Nickname:",false,LoginFenster)
guiLabelSetColor(Nickname,255,255,255)
guiLabelSetVerticalAlign(Nickname,"top")
guiLabelSetHorizontalAlign(Nickname,"left",false)
guiSetFont(Nickname,"default-bold-small")
--PASSWORT TEXT
Passwort = guiCreateLabel(21,111,65,17,"Passwort:",false,LoginFenster)
guiLabelSetColor(Passwort,255,255,255)
guiLabelSetVerticalAlign(Passwort,"top")
guiLabelSetHorizontalAlign(Passwort,"left",false)
guiSetFont(Passwort,"default-bold-small")
--NICKNAME TEXTBOX
NicknameBox = guiCreateEdit(89,52,219,32,"",false,LoginFenster)
guiEditSetMaxLength(NicknameBox,20)
--PASSWORT TEXTBOX
PasswortBox = guiCreateEdit(88,107,219,32,"",false,LoginFenster)
guiEditSetMaxLength(PasswortBox,20)
--LOGIN BUTTON
LoginButton = guiCreateButton(117,173,100,36,"Login",false,LoginFenster)
guiSetFont(LoginButton,"default-bold-small")
--REGISTER BUTTON
RegisterButton = guiCreateButton(229,173,100,36,"Registrieren",false,LoginFenster)
guiSetFont(RegisterButton,"default-bold-small")
end
 
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), LoginWindow)

onClientPlayerJoin is not triggered for the local player. What you want is onClientResourceStart:

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart",getResourceRootElement(),LoginWindow)

hm you have to use the function

guiBringToFront

also :

.......
  RegisterButton = guiCreateButton(229,173,100,36,"Registrieren",false,LoginFenster)
guiSetFont(RegisterButton,"default-bold-small")
guiBringToFront(LoginFenster)
 
end
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), LoginWindow)

onClientPlayerJoin is not triggered for the local player. What you want is onClientResourceStart:

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart",getResourceRootElement(),LoginWindow)

But I want to show it for the player who joins.

Hm, that didn't work for me

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart",getResourceRootElement(),LoginWindow)

..

onClientResourceStart gets called when a player joined and has finished downloading the resource, that IS what you need to use, not onClientPlayerJoin.

It works now, thanks! But what's then "onClientPlayerJoin"?

If you have ever read wiki, you'd know.

I've already read about the function, and it says that it gets triggered when a player joins the server and that the source of this event is the player who joined the server.

This event is triggered when a player joins a server. It is triggered for all players other than the local player.

I know a period means full stop, but you should continue reading if there's more behind it
