Really new to LUA lol

[xXBaddaBingXx]

Hey, I just wanted to ask and stuff I already know how to add like the custom models to the script but I don't know where to put the models at like the custom models? If you could also try to explain to me how to add like custom handling and stuff I'm just trying to start a server with a few friends and have some fun with modding and playing online lol. Thanks for your kind help it be so much appreciated.

Custom handling will be integrated in new version of MTA; MTA 1.1

Ok, thanks where do the put my custom dffs and txd for the car models to be loaded?

In the place which you specified in meta.xml, relative to the resource directory.

Here is an example code:

function ClientStarted() 
  
txd = engineLoadTXD ("infernus.txd") 
engineImportTXD (txd, 411) 
dff = engineLoadDFF ("infernus.dff") 
engineReplaceModel (dff, 411) 
end 
addEventHandler( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted ) 

Meta file for simplish:

<meta> 
    <script src="client.lua" type="client" /> 
    <file src="infernus.txd" /> 
    <file src="infernus.dff" /> 
</meta> 

Make sure you have script and the 1 (or 2 files if you include custom dff) in the resource folder.

I put two custom Infernus files into the freeroam folder located under server > mods > deathmatch > resources-cache > unzipped > freeroam > infernus.dff, and infernus.txd. Did i do the following correctly?

I put in the fr_client.lua and click saved I didn't go to compile.

addEventHandler('onClientResourceStart', getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted ) 
    function() 
        fadeCamera(true) 
        setTimer(getPlayers, 1000, 1) 
         
  
        txd = engineLoadTXD ("infernus.txd") 
        engineImportTXD (txd, 411) 
        dff = engineLoadDFF ("infernus.dff") 
        engineReplaceModel (dff, 411) 
        bindKey('f1', 'down', toggleFRWindow) 
        createWindow(wndMain) 
        hideAllWindows() 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'jetpack'), doesPedHaveJetPack(g_Me)) 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'falloff'), canPedBeKnockedOffBike(g_Me)) 
        setJetpackMaxHeight ( 9001 ) 
        triggerServerEvent('onLoadedAtClient', g_ResRoot, g_Me) 
    end 
) 

For the meta.xml just a snippet of it:

<info name="Freeroam GUI" author="arc_" version="1.3.4" /> 
     
    <script src="util_server.lua" type="server" /> 
    <script src="fr_server.lua" type="server" /> 
     
    <script src="util.lua" type="client" /> 
    <script src="gui.lua" type="client" /> 
    <script src="fr_client.lua" type="client" /> 
  
     
    <export function="appendControl" type="client" /> 
     
    <file src="colorselect.png" /> 
    <file src="localplayerblip.png" /> 
    <file src="map.png" /> 
    <file src="playerblip.png" /> 
    <file src="vehiclecolors.png" /> 
        <file src="infernus.txd" /> 
    <file src="infernus.dff" />

No no... Put it here: server > mods > deathmatch > resources > (your resource name) - and in that folder is your script,meta file and dff and / or txd model

ok

I done the following, now I'm just having a issue with the car not showing up any suggestions ? I copied the freeroam the one that came with the MTA install and I put the lines in the meta.xml and then I put the lines of the TXD and DFF under the OnClientResourceStarted like this:

addEventHandler('onClientResourceStart', g_ResRoot,getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), ClientStarted ) 
  
  
  
    function() 
        fadeCamera(true) 
        setTimer(getPlayers, 1000, 1) 
         
        bindKey('f1', 'down', toggleFRWindow) 
        createWindow(wndMain) 
        hideAllWindows() 
        txd = engineLoadTXD ("infernus.txd") 
        engineImportTXD (txd, 411) 
        dff = engineLoadDFF ("infernus.dff") 
        engineReplaceModel (dff, 411) 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'jetpack'), doesPedHaveJetPack(g_Me)) 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'falloff'), canPedBeKnockedOffBike(g_Me)) 
        setJetpackMaxHeight ( 9001 ) 
        triggerServerEvent('onLoadedAtClient', g_ResRoot, g_Me) 
    end 
) 

I merged the code from this into the code above this one.

function ClientStarted() 
txd = engineLoadTXD ("infernus.txd") 
engineImportTXD (txd, 411) 
dff = engineLoadDFF ("infernus.dff") 
engineReplaceModel (dff, 411) 
end

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", g_ResRoot,getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()),  
function() 
        fadeCamera(true) 
        setTimer(getPlayers, 1000, 1) 
        bindKey('f1', 'down', toggleFRWindow) 
        createWindow(wndMain) 
        hideAllWindows() 
        txd = engineLoadTXD ("infernus.txd") 
        engineImportTXD (txd, 411) 
        dff = engineLoadDFF ("infernus.dff") 
        engineReplaceModel (dff, 411) 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'jetpack'), doesPedHaveJetPack(g_Me)) 
        guiCheckBoxSetSelected(getControl(wndMain, 'falloff'), canPedBeKnockedOffBike(g_Me)) 
        setJetpackMaxHeight ( 9001 ) 
        triggerServerEvent('onLoadedAtClient', g_ResRoot, g_Me) 
    end 
)
