download on client

[philip1994]

how can i make it so, only on when the type a command, they download the client side data, for example if i had a vehicle mod system, they will only download when they type "example" ? thanks in advance.

To make a custom download system you can use fetchRemote, if you use it client side, it'll only work if you use the same host as the server.

could you please give me an example of downloading from my files as opposed to from a url?

my issue is how do i make that lua file run once its transferred to the client? because if i specify it in the meta then it will just download instantly

Make the load function with triggerClientEvent.

in meta.xml add only the .lua files , after manual downloaded the .dff / txd you simpli call the loading function.

triggerClientEvent(player,"loadMods",player)

loadstring

local launch = assert(loadstring(SCRIPT-IN-STRING-HERE)) 
launch() 
  
--Alternative: 
  
assert(loadstring(SCRIPT-IN-STRING-HERE))()

"loadstring" shoud be use when there are no other options , bk to stop the loaded code you need to unload EventHandlers , to do that you need warppers , with warppers you will warp your own EventHandlers to and not only the loadstring one , so there is much more work.
