What im Doing Wrong?

[SnoopCat]

i want to change vehiclecolors degraded randmly , i make this script (well not all by myself) for water color and works fine.... but when i chane it to setVehicleColor it doesnt works

can someone helps?

red     = math.random(0, 255) 
green   = math.random(0, 255) 
blue    = math.random(0, 255) 
aRed   = (1 + math.random(0, 1000)/1000) * 1.3 
aGreen = (1 + math.random(0, 1000)/1000) * 1.3 
aBlue  = (1 + math.random(0, 1000)/1000) * 1.3 
function changeColor() 
    if ((red + aRed) < 0) or ((red + aRed) > 255) then 
        aRed = aRed * -1 
    end 
    red = red + aRed 
    if ((green + aGreen) < 0) or ((green + aGreen) > 255) then 
        aGreen = aGreen * -1 
    end 
    green = green + aGreen 
    if ((blue + aBlue) < 0) or ((blue + aBlue) > 255) then 
        aBlue = aBlue * -1 
    end 
    blue = blue + aBlue 
    setVehicleColor(red, green, blue) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientPreRender", root, changeColor ) 

PD:it only changes vehicle color randomly but not whit degraded

Not working

[Cadu12]

I have tested and works, are you using server-side? if so, change to client-side

[SnoopCat]

its change colors but not degraded

[Cadu12]

uh? what do you mean? if you want change car color?

[SnoopCat]

i mean this...

this is an example whit the same script i gived but whit setWaterColor.

[Castillo]

-- server side:

function randomVehicleColors() 
    for index, vehicle in ipairs(getElementsByType("vehicle")) do 
        red = math.random(0,255) 
        green = math.random(0,255) 
        blue = math.random(0,255) 
        setVehicleColor (vehicle, red, green, blue) 
    end 
end  
setTimer( randomVehicleColors, 1000, 0 ) 

[SnoopCat]

it changes but not like showed on video...

[Castillo]

Do you mean the speed of changing? if so, change the timer that it's set to 1 second to less.

[JR10]

You mean blending?

There is no function for that, but I think the script in the video is using shaders.

[SnoopCat]

blending its possibly on cars.... i see it on server FFS racing.. and the script on the video is the same as the first one i posted but whit setWaterColor

[JR10]

I didn't say it's impossible.

You will need getWaterColor, then - 1 and setWaterColor to the new values.

And check if it's 0, and then math.random to get new values, and so on.

[SnoopCat]

but why the code i posted doent works if it works whit setWaterColor

[Cadu12]

Do you mean Shader water?

[SnoopCat]

shader water is diferent as the script

[JR10]

Shader applied to 'waterclear256'

Shader:

float Time : TIME ; 
  
float4 GetColor ( ) 
{ 
    return float4 ( cos ( Time ) , cos ( Time ) , cos ( Time ) , 1 ) ;

{ 
    pass P0 
    { 
        MaterialAmbient = GetColor ( ) ; 
        MaterialDiffuse = GetColor ( ) ; 
        MaterialEmissive = GetColor ( ) ; 
        MaterialSpecular = GetColor ( ) ; 
         
        AmbientMaterialSource = Material ; 
        DiffuseMaterialSource = Material ; 
        EmissiveMaterialSource = Material ; 
        SpecularMaterialSource = Material ;
