Message while downloading

[kuba90pl]

Hey!

I wanted to make a message while downloading files in my server. Well i know i need to use onClientResourceStart , but i dont know which way i need to use it.

i tried:

function downloadingText() 
addEventHandler("onClienResourceStart",root,startText) 
  
addEvent("downloadingText",true) 
addEventHandler("downloadingText",root,downloadingText) 
  
function startText() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,napisSciagnie) 
end 
  
function napisSciaganie() 
local x, y = guiGetScreenSize() 
dxDrawText ( "ASDASDADADSDASDADDDASDAD", 100,100,400,400, tocolor(255,255,255,255), 2, "default-small", "center","top",false,false,false ) 
  
end 

function join() 
triggerClientEvent(source,"downloadingText",source) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",root,join) 

doesnt work.

any tips?

function napisSciagnie() 
local x, y = guiGetScreenSize() 
dxDrawText ( "ASDASDADADSDASDADDDASDAD", 100,100,400,400, tocolor(255,255,255,255), 2, "default-small", "center","top",false,false,false )  
end 
  
function startText() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root, napisSciagnie) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClienResourceStart",root,startText) 

And pls use lua tags [ lua ] [ /lua ]

Fail. I wrote wrong the event:

  
function napisSciagnie() 
local x, y = guiGetScreenSize() 
dxDrawText ( "ASDASDADADSDASDADDDASDAD", 100,100,400,400, tocolor(255,255,255,255), 2, "default-small", "center","top",false,false,false ) 
end 
  
function startText() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, napisSciagnie) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", root, startText)

Client Side scripts are dose not start until all files are downloaded in the client's PC, Try To make a trigger from the server with the event onPlayerJoin to draw that text, And then use the event onClientResourceStart to remove the text ones all files are downloaded on the clients PC ...

@Sasuke : You should use resourceRoot with the events onResourceStart & onClientResourceStart

Use;

textCreateTextItem 

[Sasu]

Client:

function napisSciagnie() 
local x, y = guiGetScreenSize() 
dxDrawText ( "ASDASDADADSDASDADDDASDAD", 100,100,400,400, tocolor(255,255,255,255), 2, "default-small", "center","top",false,false,false ) 
end 
  
function startText() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, napisSciagnie) 
end 
addEvent("downloadingFiles", true) 
addEventHandler("downloadingFiles", root, startText) 
  
function stopText() 
removeEventHandler("onClientRender", root, napisSciagnie) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, stopText) 

 

Server:

function startText() 
triggerClientEvent(source, "downloadingFiles", source) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, startText) 

Is it correct #Pain_[N] ?

You are using triggerServerEvent in the server file + Mr.Pres[T]ege's way is much easier and better ..

Server:

  
addEvent( "removeTextDisplay", true ) 
addEventHandler( "removeTextDisplay", root, 
    function() 
        textDisplayRemoveObserver( serverDisplay, source ) 
    end 
) 
  
addEventHandler( "onPlayerJoin", root, 
    function() 
        serverDisplay = textCreateDisplay() 
        textDisplayAddObserver ( serverDisplay, source ) 
        serverText = textCreateTextItem ( "Downloading client files...", 0.5, 0.5,1,255,255,255,255,1.2,"center","center",200 ) 
        textDisplayAddText ( serverDisplay, serverText )    
    end 
) 
  

Client:

  
local checkTransferBoxTimer 
addEventHandler( "onClientPlayerJoin", root,  
function() 
    if isTransferBoxActive() then 
        checkTransferBoxTimer = setTimer( c_clientTransferBox, 200, 0, source ) 
    end 
end 
) 
  
local joinTimer = setTimer( function() 
    if not isTransferBoxActive() then 
        triggerServerEvent( "removeTextDisplay", localPlayer ) 
        if isTimer(joinTimer) then killTimer(joinTimer) end 
    end 
end, 200, 5 
) 
  
function c_clientTransferBox(player) 
    if not isTransferBoxActive() then 
        triggerServerEvent( "removeTextDisplay", player ) 
        killTimer(checkTransferBoxTimer) 
    end 
end
