[Help] Delete image

[Gallagher]

hello guys!

I did a HuD which has a stock that I would not want anyone to steal.

I tried using

"jacks.png" cache="false" />  

but not deleted the picture.

Is there any way to delete the image from the client harddisk?

Haven't tried it but you could check if the file exists as they're disconnecting, if it does, delete it. It's not optimal since they can still get it while the server is running.

You can also try to make it private, read this for info. They can still find it - if they know where to look.

Other than that I guess you're out of luck since it's very hard to protect images in general. Since they could just take a screenshot while in-game and go from there.

He can also just delete it as soon as the script is loaded by just typing the fileDelete function anywhere in the script file, it will be loaded as soon as the script is ran, bypassing it will still be possible by downloading the image and disconnecting before the script is ran, a bit hard but possible.

Another way would be to use fetchRemote on an image on the web and then drawing it for the client, check the wiki page for more info and an example.

or just change the image to a texture and delete the file.

Which makes stealing very hard.

Before they can copy it, it will be gone.

This is exactly what was suggested before, deleting the file. But it surely can be bypassed.

already used FileDelete and ended up being robbed

it is very easy to get the client-side files before they are deleted

[JR10]

Yes, you can simply disconnect before the script that deletes the file is ran. Best way to do this would be fetching the image content from the web and drawing it.

ve if you can help me.

got this from the client side script

local screenWidth,screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize() 
  
function createText1 ( ) 
      if getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "grung") >= 4 and getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "grung") <= 7 then 
    
    grung1= dxDrawImage(screenWidth * 0.93, screenHeight * 0.85, screenHeight * 0.070, screenHeight * 0.070, "image1.png", 0, 0, 0, tocolor(250, 100,100)) 
    end 
      if getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "grung") >= 1 and getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "grung") <= 5 then 
    grung2= dxDrawImage(screenWidth * 0.93, screenHeight * 0.85, screenHeight * 0.070, screenHeight * 0.070, "image2.png", 0, 0, 0, tocolor(250, 150,150)) 
    end 
     end 
function HandleTheRendering ( ) 
 if render then 
    removeEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, createText1 ) 
    render = false 
 else 
   addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, createText1 ) 
   render = true 
 end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, HandleTheRendering )   
bindKey( 'F3', 'down', HandleTheRendering ) 

as I lay fetch that script?

server

function startImageDownload( playerToReceive )

end 
  
function myCallback( responseData, errno, playerToReceive ) 
    if errno == 0 then 
        triggerClientEvent( playerToReceive, "onClientGotImage", resourceRoot, responseData ) 
    end 
end 
  
addEvent( "onClientGotImage", true ) 
addEventHandler( "onClientGotImage", resourceRoot, 
    function( pixels ) 
        if myTexture then 
            destroyElement( myTexture ) 
        end 
        myTexture = dxCreateTexture( pixels ) 
    end 
) 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, 
    function() 
        if myTexture then 
            local w,h = dxGetMaterialSize( myTexture ) 
            dxDrawImage( 200, 100, w, h, myTexture ) 
        end 
    end 
) 
  
  
  
  
  
  

client

addEvent( "onClientGotImage", true ) 
addEventHandler( "onClientGotImage", resourceRoot, 
    function( pixels ) 
        if myTexture then 
            destroyElement( myTexture ) 
        end 
        myTexture = dxCreateTexture( pixels ) 
    end 
) 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, 
    function() 
        if myTexture then 
            local w,h = dxGetMaterialSize( myTexture ) 
            dxDrawImage( 200, 100, w, h, myTexture ) 
        end 
    end 
)

hello guys!

I did a HuD which has a stock that I would not want anyone to steal.

I tried using

"jacks.png" cache="false" /> 

Result META.xml

<file src="jacks.png" download="false" /> 

[Karuzo]

That option is only from 1.4+.

idk what you're trying to do gallagher since you mixed up server and client sided functions

you can use this script, test it and see

g_resroot = getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()) 
  
deletefiles ={ 
   'image.png', -- images .PNG and .JPG and bipmap and .lua 
 } 
  
  
  function deletfile() 
      for i=0, #deletefiles do 
           fileDelete(deletefiles[i]) 
    end 
 end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", g_resroot, deleteFile)

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", g_resroot, deleteFile) 

Ehhhm.

this will delete the files on resource start, how can he use them then?

[IIYAMA]

@ Arnold-1

by making textures of it, but yes he isn't doing that....

Ehhhm. isso irá apagar os arquivos no início do recurso, como ele pode usá-los, então?

not start, after loading. the file it is deleted.. ( you can test, and see the result )

[Karuzo]

That would be completely useless if you don't create a texture of that picture. So you're basically just downloading and deleting it.
