NoHope what do you mean that there is no createweapon function? What functions need i use than?

[xeon17]

Ignore him , the functions exist.

I made this but it does not work and i think i must give a bind for mouse 1 no? 
  
  
  
function attach ( source, commandName ) 
      local vehicle = getElementPosition ( source ) --Get the vehicle position 
      attachElements ( minigun, source, 0, 0, 5 ) --Attach the weapon to the vehicle. 
      local weapon = createWeapon("minigun", x, y, z + 1) --Create a Weapon 
      setWeaponClipAmmo(weapon, 99999) 
      setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") 
      setWeaponProperty(weapon, "fire_rotation", 0, -30, 0) -- Optionally adjust for model rotation (this value will be different for other weapons) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "attach", attach )

There was so much errors in your code , try this should work but i didn't tested it

function attach ( ) 
      local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) 
      if theVehicle then 
      local x,y,z = getElementPosition ( theVehicle )  
      local weapon = createWeapon("minigun", x, y, z + 1)  
      attachElements ( minigun, theVehicle, 0, 0, 5 )  
      setWeaponClipAmmo(weapon, 99999) 
      setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") 
      setWeaponProperty(weapon, "fire_rotation", 0, -30, 0)  
end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "attach", attach )

It works but not like in the video. Its always fireing and i want to make it possible to enter the minigun and shoot with mouse 1. I think i need for that an another function no?

You need a lot more than just that, you can set it up to fire in a variety of ways. For one, you can use getKeyState inside a render event. Or you can just bind a key using bindKey.

As looking around with it, I was working on something like this before, got pretty close to release - but as always I keep jumping between projects of mine.

Here's a little snippet of what I used to look around with my weapons(with restrictions and sensitivity);

local aimSensitivity = 30; 
  
function rotateGun_Handler(cX, cY, aX, aY, wX, wY, wZ) 
    local oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ = getElementAttachedOffsets(theWeapon); 
    if (oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 345 or oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 30) then -- Pitch Restriction 
            oRX = oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    if (oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 330 or oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 50) then -- Yaw Restriction 
            oRZ = oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    setElementAttachedOffsets(theWeapon, oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ); 
    setCursorPosition(screenW/2, screenH/2); 
end 

I updated these with onClientCursorMove.

Thanks and what functions do i need to enter the minigun and fire with it?

[Addlibs]

To fire it, use either fireWeapon(weapon) (single fire) or setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") (continouos firing)

[Xwad]

And what function need i use to enter the weapon like in the video?

[Addlibs]

setElementPosition, attachElements, etc. You need to write up your own function that would handle mounting the weapon.

[Xwad]

i think that i did something wrong

  
  
function attach ( ) 
      local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) 
      if theVehicle then 
      local x,y,z = getElementPosition ( theVehicle ) 
      local weapon = createWeapon("minigun", x, y, z + 1) 
      attachElements ( minigun, theVehicle, 0, 0, 5 ) 
      setWeaponClipAmmo(weapon, 99999) 
      setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") 
      setWeaponProperty(weapon, "fire_rotation", 0, -30, 0) 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "attach", attach ) 
  
local aimSensitivity = 30; 
  
function rotateGun_Handler(cX, cY, aX, aY, wX, wY, wZ) 
    local oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ = getElementAttachedOffsets(theWeapon); 
    if (oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 345 or oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 30) then -- Pitch Restriction 
            oRX = oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    if (oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 330 or oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 50) then -- Yaw Restriction 
            oRZ = oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    setElementAttachedOffsets(theWeapon, oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ); 
    setCursorPosition(screenW/2, screenH/2); 
end 
  
function consoleSetPlayerPosition ( source, commandName, posX, posY, posZ ) 
    setElementPosition ( source, posX, posY, posZ ) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "setpos", consoleSetPlayerPosition  ) 
  

[Dealman]

Well yeah, all you did was copy and paste the stuff and make no changes for it to work whatsoever...

[Xwad]

yes but i dont know that what need to change

[Xwad]

yes but i dont know that what need to change

[3B00DG4MER]

Not sure

local screenW,screenH = guiGetScreenSize() 
local weapon 
function attach ( ) 
      local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle ( localPlayer ) 
      if theVehicle then 
      local x,y,z = getElementPosition ( theVehicle ) 
      weapon = createWeapon("minigun", x, y, z + 1) 
      attachElements ( weapon, theVehicle, 0, 0, 1 ) 
      setWeaponClipAmmo(weapon, 99999) 
      setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") 
      setWeaponProperty(weapon, "fire_rotation", 0, -30, 0) 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "attach", attach ) 
local aimSensitivity = 30; 
  
function rotateGun_Handler(cX, cY, aX, aY, wX, wY, wZ) 
    local oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ = getElementAttachedOffsets(weapon); 
    if (oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 345 or oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 30) then -- Pitch Restriction 
            oRX = oRX-((cY-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    if (oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) > 330 or oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity) < 50) then -- Yaw Restriction 
            oRZ = oRZ-((cX-0.5)*aimSensitivity); 
    end 
    --setCameraTarget(localPlayer,weapon) 
    setCameraTarget(weapon) 
    --setCameraMatrix(wX,wY,wZ) 
    setElementAttachedOffsets(weapon, oX, oY, oZ, oRX, oRY, oRZ); 
    setCursorPosition(screenW/2, screenH/2); 
end 
addEventHandler( "onClientCursorMove", getRootElement( ), rotateGun_Handler) 

[Xwad]

its alwys shooting and i cant enter the minigun

[Dealman]

Do you even read the code?

When you create the minigun, you have this line of code;

setWeaponState(weapon, "firing") 

Of course it will always be firing when you set its weapon state to firing

Edit:

To "enter" the minigun, you're best off using collision spheres, attach it to the minigun and trigger an event whenever a client enters it. So whenever a player is inside that sphere, and he press for example E, he will be attached to the minigun.

I tryed to make it but i cant. If i want to change the state for no fireing than what need i write ?

To change the state of firing replace "firing" to "ready"

Thanks! And what function need i use to enter the minigun?
