Uploading and Rendering

[Revolutionist]

Hey. Is there any way for the players to type the URL of the image, and then make the server upload it, after what they could render that image on their screen?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, how to show it to the players? Just DxCreateTexture or...?

[denny199]

just edit

function startImageDownload( playerToReceive ) 

edit:

function startImageDownload( playerToReceive ) 
    fetchRemote ( "http://www.example.com/image.jpg", myCallback, "", false, getRootElement() ) 
end 
addEventHandkler ( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, startImageDownload) 
  
function myCallback( responseData, errno, playerToReceive ) 
    if errno == 0 then 
        triggerClientEvent( getRootElement(), "onClientGotImage", resourceRoot, responseData ) 
    end 
end

If you want to save the image on the server you'll need file functions.

Nah. Saving all the images players type would mean.... You know what.
