[Sidhkeer]

Use this downloadFile function

how can i let players download some more files at once, and later being downloaded where will they go, and how can i add them to any other script? (i have some skins which i'm thinking of using with zday (slothmans script)

Just put those files in meta with attribute 'download="false" ', and then download them when you want by using downloadFile.

[Sidhkeer]

    local txd = engineLoadTXD ( "skins/22.txd" ) 
    engineImportTXD ( txd, 22 ) 

Suppose i'm going to use the file with some lua codes as shown above, now how would slothman's zombie's client side script will know that this is that file i have to work with?

I can't understand. Just download file after loging, or spawning and after load it like above.

as I mentioned after player logged in

try to do it by yourself then post your code here.

function onPlayerLogin ( ) 
    downloadFile ( "test.xml" ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientLogin, resourceRoot, onPlayerLogin )  
 

Don't know scripting that good , hope this works
