[Question] setElementModel

[Stranger]

hey guys, why if i do trigger to setElementModel from client to server side , not work ?

client side:

addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", root, 
    function() 
        if (source == s1) then 
            local row, col = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(gri) 
            local ski = guiGridListGetItemText(gri, row, col) 
            if (ski) then 
                guiSetVisible(se, false) 
                 showCursor(false) 
                if (ski == "Skin 1") then 
                    triggerServerEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinOne", localPlayer) 
                elseif (ski == "Skin 2") then 
                    triggerServerEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinTwo", localPlayer) 
                elseif (ski == "Skin 3") then 
                    triggerServerEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinThree", localPlayer) 
                elseif (ski == "Skin 4") then 
                    triggerServerEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinFour", localPlayer) 
                end 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

server side:

addEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinOne", true) 
addEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinTwo", true) 
addEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinThree", true) 
addEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinFour", true) 
  
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinOne", function () 
setElementModel(source, 283) 
end) 
  
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinTwo", function () 
setElementModel(source, 282) 
end) 
  
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinThree", function () 
setElementModel(source, 285) 
end) 
  
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinFour", function () 
setElementModel(source, 287) 
end)

Let's start from what guiGridListGetItemText returns right now. Mind dumping it and tell us what it does?

i meant if someone select a skin from the grid list, and press the button then do trigger to setElementModel,

i did put it in client side but no one can see the skin but him.

Instead of triggering the event to the localPlayer, put it to root. Make sure you pass in the player element as an argument however.

ohhh sorry that i forgot 'root', thank you, i will try it now.

yesh it's work, thank you...

another thing, why did you make 4 triggers, just make one with an argument:

  
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", root, 
    function() 
        if (source == s1) then 
            local row, col = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(gri) 
            local ski = guiGridListGetItemText(gri, row, col) 
            if (ski) then 
                guiSetVisible(se, false) 
                 showCursor(false) 
                 triggerServerEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkinSkin",root,ski) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 
  

server:

  
addEvent ("onPlayerSelectTheSkin", true) 
  
addEventHandler ("onPlayerSelectTheSkin", function (theSkin) 
if theSkin == "Skin 1" then 
setElementModel(source, 283) 
elseif theSkin == "Skin 2" then 
setElementModel(source, 282) 
elseif theSkin == "Skin3" then 
setElementModel(source, 285) 
elseif theSkin == "Skin4" then 
setElementModel(source, 287) 
end 
end)
