WHY THIS ALWAYS Happens?

[xTravax]

and when some players join they download it and when they reconnect they got again to download....WHY?

How i can FIX THAT??PLS Help ME!!

Show us your script you create the vehicles with.

You possibly have a line deleteFile("nameofcarfile") which removes the .dff from the players files.

Maybe they are joining another server with a same resource name? And it's being overwritten?

[qaisjp]

That might be the reason, please show your code.

one is mod loader resource named carmod

and in it i found deleter.lua or something like that..maybe that cause the problem?

addCommandHandler ( "mdel", function ( player, _, modDir, modName ) 
    if not hasRights ( player ) then 
        return false 
    end 
     
    if type ( modDir ) ~= "string" or type ( modName ) ~= "string" then 
        outputDebugString ( "Please enter valid arguments! use 'mdel [moddir] [modname]'!" ) 
        return false

    local txd = modDir.."/"..modName..".txd" 
    local dff = modDir.."/"..modName..".dff"

        xmlDestroyNode ( mods[txd] ) 
        outputDebugString ( "Deleted TXD in "..modDir.." for item "..modName ) 
    end

    local tab

        return true 
    end 
     
    local pAccount = getPlayerAccount ( player )  
    if isGuestAccount ( pAccount ) then 
        return false 
    end 
     
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..pAccount, aclGetGroup ( "admin" ) ) then 
        return true 
    end 
     
    return false 
end 

so....i just need to delete that script and edit meta.xml? and delete line which loads that script src delete.lua or something like that?

EDIT//Thanks i didn't notice that file..now it's delete thank you very much for help again.

You named modloader as 'carmod'?

It explains a lot.

Some of players that play on your server, also playing on our server (IP-PD Freeroam).

And epicly we named modloader to 'carmod' too...

So I guess you understand

[qaisjp]

name your resource "srvtag_carmod"

In my Server i got real cars i mean mods skin mods weapon mods car mods tuning mods and that

and when some players join they download it and when they reconnect they got again to download....WHY?

How i can FIX THAT??PLS Help ME!!

If u use modloader please read the README file, there it says that you will have to rename you modds so when other players reconect they don't need to download them anymore. The problem is when the player logs on another server that has no mods and the client redownload the original cars, and when he enters again in yours he have to download the files again because they aren't the same....

Also, it's highly reccomended to change the resource name! If two servers use this resource, and you play on both, you will have to download the resource everytime you join the other server. So, this is easier for players, and saves you bandwidth usage.

If you don't change the name, you will get notified anyway

So rename the vehicles from the folder and rename (whit the same name) them also from the "data.lua" file.
