dxdrawimage For Any Image In Resource

[micheal1230]

Well I Get A Unexpected .. Which i understand why its there because i put the .. image .. there

ClientSide

-- Image Drawing  
  
function drawimage(image) 
    local screenWidth,screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize() 
    dxDrawImage ( screenWidth/2 - 50, 50, 500, 500, ..image.. , 0, -120 ) 
end 
  
addEvent("drawImage", true) 
addEventHandler("drawImage" 
    function () 
        addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,drawimage) 
end 
) 
  
addEvent("removeImage",true) 
addEventHandler("removeImage",root, 
    function() 
        removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,drawimage) 
    end 
) 

Server Side

-- Image Drawing CMDs 
  
addCommandHandler("drawimage", 
    function(player) 
        triggerClientEvent("drawImage",player) 
    end 
) 
  
addCommandHandler("removeimage", 
    function(player) 
        triggerClientEvent("removeImage",player) 
    end 
)

Yes, is because you put the "..image.." there. That argument needs the filepath of your image, as string.

dxDrawImage ( screenWidth/2 - 50, 50, 500, 500, "images/my_image.jpg", 0, -120 ) 

Or, you can set a variable to store the path, but you will not use ".." before or later of variable:

local image = "images/my_image.jpg" 
dxDrawImage ( screenWidth/2 - 50, 50, 500, 500, image, 0, -120 ) 

And do not forget: you must set the pathfile (of the image) in Meta.xml.

Stan i mean like dxdrawimage for multiple images without making multiple functions like so i could do /drawimage troll.jpg or /drawimage nyancat.jpg Like that

triggering to client should be like this :

  
triggerClientEvent(player,"drawImage",player) 
  

in yours it will trigger for every player in server .

What Your Saying Is Nothing To Do With What Im Saying, The Script Works Fine Its JUst That I Dont Want To Make Tons Of Functions To Load Images So I Just Want To Load It All In One So i Can Type /drawimage troll.jpg or /drawimage nyancat.jpg

Type /drawimage imagelocation.png

What's the point having the command server-side? Why not simply make it client-side. Server doesn't need to know about the images being drawn. Unless you need to.

I thought of the same, but I wasn't sure if he wanted to draw the image for every player or only for the one who types /drawimage.

Since his code seemed that he wants to display the image to everyone, I continued it.

i Did want it for everyone since only my admins know the command only they can do it
