We don't make fixed codes for the people here. We tell you what's wrong, you must fix it yourself.

[Charlie_Jefferson]

Eh. Means you gotta debug it yourself. If you don't get any error, than it sucks . Have fun, I guess.

[Charlie_Jefferson]

 function displayText () 
  
local screenHeight, screenWidth = guiGetScreenSize() 
wantedLvl = getPlayerWantedLevel() 
     if wantedLvl == 0 then 
          dxDrawText(tostring(wantedLvl), 44, screenHeight-41, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 0, 0, 0, 255 ), 1.02, "pricedown" ) 
     else 
          dxDrawText(tostring(wantedLvl), 44, screenHeight-41, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 0, 0, 0, 255 ), 1.02, "pricedown" ) 
     end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, displayText ) 
addCommandHandler ( "wanted", displayText ) 

Probably won't work, but try it

Please read this: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Debugging

Don't give him fixed code, please. He should learn by himself how to find errors and fix them.
