attachElementToBone

[HoLsTeN]

we need to add this function

attachElementToBone

like in sa-mp

this function will be helpful and easier to make many things by using it!

we must add it for MTA 1.1

sorry for my bad english

[JR10]

client side only:

function attachElementToBone(element,ped,bone) 
local boneX,boneY,boneZ = getPedBonePosition(ped,bone) 
setElementPosition(element,boneX,boneY,boneZ) 
attachRotationAdjusted(element,ped) 
end 
  
function attachRotationAdjusted (from, to) 
    local frPosX, frPosY, frPosZ = getElementPosition(from) 
    local frRotX, frRotY, frRotZ = getElementRotation(from) 
    local toPosX, toPosY, toPosZ = getElementPosition(to) 
    local toRotX, toRotY, toRotZ = getElementRotation(to) 
    local offsetPosX = frPosX - toPosX 
    local offsetPosY = frPosY - toPosY 
    local offsetPosZ = frPosZ - toPosZ 
    local offsetRotX = frRotX - toRotX 
    local offsetRotY = frRotY - toRotY 
    local offsetRotZ = frRotZ - toRotZ 
    offsetPosX, offsetPosY, offsetPosZ = applyInverseRotation (offsetPosX, offsetPosY, offsetPosZ, toRotX, toRotY, toRotZ) 
    attachElements(from, to, offsetPosX, offsetPosY, offsetPosZ, offsetRotX, offsetRotY, offsetRotZ) 
end 
  
function applyInverseRotation (x,y,z, rx,ry,rz) 
    local DEG2RAD = (math.pi * 2) / 360 
    rx = rx * DEG2RAD 
    ry = ry * DEG2RAD 
    rz = rz * DEG2RAD 
    local tempY = y 
    y =  math.cos (rx) * tempY + math.sin (rx) * z 
    z = -math.sin (rx) * tempY + math.cos (rx) * z 
    local tempX = x 
    x =  math.cos (ry) * tempX - math.sin (ry) * z 
    z =  math.sin (ry) * tempX + math.cos (ry) * z 
    tempX = x 
    x =  math.cos (rz) * tempX + math.sin (rz) * y 
    y = -math.sin (rz) * tempX + math.cos (rz) * y 
    return x, y, z 
end 

Not sure it will work though, just an idea i came up with.

Why do people take SA-MP as an example? SA-MP sucks and has nothing impossible for MTA. Actually, with getPedBonePosition in MTA you can do much more than SetPlayerAttachedObject in SA-MP. If you don't want to script attachElementToBone yourself, use bone attachments resource. It has no limits for attaching objects, while in SA-MP there are only 5 object slots per player.

Also I don't see what is the point of comparing, MTA is a thing, and SA-MP is another thing, we all know MTA has more features.

[HoLsTeN]

i prefer MTA

i sayed that because we want better then them

i don't like samp

[DiSaMe]

We all want MTA to be better than SA-MP and that's exactly how it is. But I find a little problem in MTA community: everyone wants somebody to come out of nowhere and do the job for them. That was the situation with bone attachments: getPedBonePosition has existed for a long time, but there still were many people who wanted bone attachment functions to be implemented. That took such a long time that they could have scripted it themselves, but they didn't. So I decided to make the resource myself. I'm glad that people like it, but I also feel a bit disappointed in them.

Its Suggestion !

He asked for new function like other do

If you dont want it ... others will want it

Its up to developers

For me yes better than nothing

If I didn't want the function, why would I make it? Writing the function in Lua isn't "nothing" and I haven't seen people who care if the function is added by the resource or implemented into MTA itself.

well I didnt ask you to create it

MTA made by many people not by your side

btw Holsten i saw a resource do that what u want search it in community & have fun

[DiSaMe]

At least do you know what's going on? First I make a resource, post the link in this topic and then you come, talking in the way as if I don't even want bone attachments, then how do you think that resource appeared in community?

Maybe by magic
