SetCameraMatrix problem

[JoZeFSvK]

Hey i wanna create camera matrix but dont work i dont know where is problem.

nacitavanie = 0 
createPed(40, 173.35345, -1320.99438, 79.13128) 
function load() 
    nacitavanie = nacitavanie + 1 
    if getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) then 
        local x, y, z = getElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)) 
        setElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer), x, y, z) 
    end 
    if nacitavanie > 3350 then 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320 + nacitavanie - 3350, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    else 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    end 
end 
  
addEvent( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
addEventHandler( "onTravelScreenStart", getRootElement(), load )

I think it's because line 1 and line 4 got similar locals ..

Try changing one of them ( Not sure ..! )

[JoZeFSvK]

i edit dont work

[csiguusz]

I think it's because line 1 and line 4 got similar locals ..

Try changing one of them ( Not sure ..! )

I don't think it's a problem, he just defines a variable in the first line and then raises it with 1 on thee fourth.

@JoZeFSvK: If you want to move the camera continuously, then use your load() function with "onClientPreRender" event.

[JoZeFSvK]

blee i dont think onClientPreRender and .. its bad i dont like it

[JoZeFSvK]

see this work

nacitavanie = 0 
createPed(40, 173.35345, -1320.99438, 79.13128) 
function drawBackround() 
    nacitavanie = nacitavanie + 1 
    if getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) then 
        local x, y, z = getElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)) 
        setElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer), x, y, z) 
    end 
    if nacitavanie > 3350 then 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320 + nacitavanie - 3350, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    else 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    end 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), drawBackround) 
  

but when i add

addEvent( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
  

and i see travelling map ... i see black background why ?

[csiguusz]

I didn't understand your problem really...Try this maybe:

addEvent( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
addEventHandler ( "onTravelScreenStart", root,  
    function () 
        addEventHandler ( "onClientPreRender", root, drawBackround ) 
    end) 
  
  

[JoZeFSvK]

my problem is ... when start map travelling i will dont see black screen but camera matrix in city ^^ when travelling stop i normal see map this is for mode race (i dont need client "pre"render)

[JoZeFSvK]

i try this but dont work when i add line

addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, load ) 
  

and start script work but when start map loading dont work.

[Castillo]

You are triggering the event: "onTravelScreenStart" when exactly? because that event is not part of race.

[JoZeFSvK]

hmm but then i must edit race client part travel screen and there write

[JoZeFSvK]

ok i edit race client work, but can you help me with dx text which will write when the game loads the map, in race when i edit i always have problem with nametags in debugscript and race dont work

so

  
local sw, sh = guiGetScreenSize() 
function createText ( ) 
dxDrawText ("Hey world", 0, sh/2-200, sw, sh, tocolor (255,255,255,255), 2, "default-bold", "center", "top") 
end 
addEvent( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
addEventHandler( "onTravelScreenStart", getRootElement(), createText ) 
  
function manageTravelScreenStop () 
    removeEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, createText) 
end 
  

dont work i see city "edit travelling" but text no

[Anderl]

1. You never trigger the event "onTravelScreenStart".

2. If you don't need the event to be triggered from the server-side, you don't need to set second parameter of addEvent to true.

3. You never call "manageTravelScreenStop".

4. DirectX functions need to be updated every frame, so you must use onClientRender event.

@Razor., that has nothing to do, he's not declaring the variable twice (well, actually he is, but before the end of the value assignment to the variable, the old variable is still "active" so it's like if he is just modifying the value of the variable).

[JoZeFSvK]

ok when i use onClientRender what do i get? when i start script i will see message hey world, i need see this message when is loading the map.

[Anony#]

an example of how you can use it "race_client.lua"

nacitavanie = 0 
createPed ( 40, 173.35345, -1320.99438, 79.13128 )

    nacitavanie = nacitavanie + 1 
    if getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer) then 
        local x, y, z = getElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer)) 
        setElementPosition(getPedOccupiedVehicle(localPlayer), x, y, z) 
    end 
    fadeCamera ( true ) 
    if nacitavanie > 3350 then 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320 + nacitavanie - 3350, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    else 
        setCameraMatrix(-437.14282226563 + nacitavanie, -1320, 80, 2580, -1628.5712890625, -300, 0, 70) 
    end 
end 
--addEvent ( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
--addEventHandler ( "onTravelScreenStart", getRootElement(), load ) 
  
  
-- Called from server 
function notifyLoadingMap( mapName, authorName ) 
    fadeCamera( false, 0.0, 0,0,0 ) -- fadeout, instant, black 
    TravelScreen.show( mapName, authorName ) 
  
     addEventHandler ( "onClientPreRender", getRootElement(), load ) 
  
end 
  
  
-- Called from server 
function initRace(vehicle, checkpoints, objects, pickups, mapoptions, ranked, duration, gameoptions, mapinfo, playerInfo) 
    outputDebug( 'MISC', 'initRace start' )

    g_Players = getElementsByType('player') 
    g_MapOptions = mapoptions 
    g_GameOptions = gameoptions 
    g_MapInfo = mapinfo 
    g_PlayerInfo = playerInfo 
    triggerEvent('onClientMapStarting', g_Me, mapinfo )

ok when i use onClientRender what do i get? when i start script i will see message hey world, i need see this message when is loading the map.

Add the handler to the event when the map starts loading, and remove it when it stops. Functions called when the map starts loading/stop loading are almost on top of the file "race_client.lua".

[Anony#]

@ Anderl, looking at "function initRace()" \o/ ^^

      removeEventHandler ( "onClientPreRender", getRootElement(), load )  
  

[JoZeFSvK]

Anony# thank you but i this have fixed i need dxdrawtext in loagind map

[Anderl]

@ Anderl, looking at "function initRace()" \o/ ^^

      removeEventHandler ( "onClientPreRender", getRootElement(), load )  
  

And?

example

  
  
  
local sw, sh = guiGetScreenSize() 
function createText ( ) 
dxDrawText ("Hey world", 0, sh/2-200, sw, sh, tocolor (255,255,255,255), 2, "default-bold", "center", "top") 
end 
--addEvent( "onTravelScreenStart", true ) 
--addEventHandler( "onTravelScreenStart", getRootElement(), createText )
