Change vehicle model

[RoadRageRR]

Ok, so I found a cool helicopter and it has 2 .ddf's (1 with the landing gear in and 1 with landing gear out), and I was wondering what else I need to change the texture of it in mid game/flight...

I have this so far....

    local textureIn = 1 
    local textureOut = 0 
      
    function setTexture( key ) 
        if key == "0" then 
            if textureOut == 0 then 
                textureOut = textureOut + 1 
                textureIn = textureIn - 1 
                dff = engineLoadDFF ( "geardown/hunter.dff", 425 ) 
                engineReplaceModel ( dff, 425 ) 
                -->make texture change... 
            end 
        elseif key == "9" then 
            if textureIn == 0 then 
                textureIn = playerGear + 1 
                textureOut = playerGear - 1 
                dff = engineLoadDFF ( "gearup/hunter.dff", 425 ) 
                engineReplaceModel ( dff, 425 ) 
                --->make texture change... 
            end 
        end 
    end 
    bindKey( "0", "up", setTexture ) 
    bindKey( "9", "up", setTexture ) 

Thanks!

Have you tested the code yet? (Please use [lua ] or

 when posting a script)

 

Not really sure if this will work, but if it dosn't please post any errors (/debugscript 3)

[xml]local textureIn = 0 
local textureOut = 1 
  
function setTexture( key ) 
    if key == "0" then 
        if textureOut == 0 then 
            -- ( Gear Down ) -- 
            textureOut = 1 
            textureIn = 0 
            engineReplaceModel ( engineLoadDFF ( "geardown/hunter.dff", 425 ), 425 ) 
        end 
    elseif key == "9" then 
        if textureIn == 0 then 
            -- ( Gear Up ) -- 
            textureIn = 1 
            textureOut = 0 
            engineReplaceModel ( engineLoadDFF ( "gearup/hunter.dff", 425 ), 425 ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
bindKey( "0", "up", setTexture ) 
bindKey( "9", "up", setTexture )

I think it's not gona work, Because when you replace/restore a model of a vehicle and you were in it, It will kick you out of it .
