Hi guys i had some problems on my code where is it : ( ?

function msg(message, thePlayer) 
removeEventHandler ( "onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx ) 
function dx() 
local nameAdmin = getPlayerName(thePlayer) 
dxDrawText("* [ Admin ] : #FFFFFF".. message .."", 22, 202, 180, 250, tocolor(150,0,0), 1.3, "default", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
dxDrawText(""..nameAdmin.."", 32, 225, 206, 250, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
end  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx) 
end 
addEvent("admin",true) 
addEventHandler("admin", getRootElement(), msg) 
bindKey("u", "down", "chatbox","AM") 
  
function () 
if string.find(message ,"Delete") then return 
removeEventHandler ( "onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx ) 
  
 end 
 end

Show us the console error

I think it's here:

addEventHandler("admin", getRootElement(), msg)

miss arguments of the function msg

Hi,

So first, you need to be on the server side to then send the message to all players, and then their client scripts will render the message on their screen.

I'm not sure what you did on the server side so here is how you can do it:

-- server:

  
function msg(thePlayer, cmd, ...) -- '...' will catch all words you wrote after the command 
  
    -- need to check if he is admin here 
  
    local message = table.concat({...}, " ") -- so it will catch your sentence but without spaces, need to concat all words with a space between them 
    if #message == 0 then -- if there is no message 
        outputChatBox("[ERROR] You must specify a message with that command !", thePlayer, 200, 0, 0) 
    else if message == "Delete" then -- if the message is exactly Delete then ask for all clients to stop rendring the message 
        triggerClientEvent("hideAdminMessage", thePlayer) 
    else -- else it's a real message so ask them to get it and start rendering it 
        triggerClientEvent("showAdminMessage", thePlayer, message) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("admin", msg) 

Note that you need to check if he is admin

-- client:

local adminMsg = {adminName, message} -- this struct will store our admin's name and his message 
  
-- SHOW 
addEvent("showAdminMessage", true) 
function showAdminMessage(theMessage) 
    local theAdminName = getPlayerName(source) -- I triggered that event with the player who used the command so source is our admin 
    adminMsg = {adminName=theAdminName, message=theMessage} -- updating the struct 
    addEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx) -- start rendering 
end 
addEventHandler("showAdminMessage", root, showAdminMessage) -- root is the same as getRootElement() 
  
-- HIDE 
addEvent("hideAdminMessage", true) 
function hideAdminMessage() 
    removeEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx) -- stop rendering 
end 
addEventHandler("hideAdminMessage", root, hideAdminMessage) -- root is the same as getRootElement() 
  
-- RENDER 
function dx() 
    local theAdmin = adminMsg.adminName 
    local theMessage = adminMsg.message 
    dxDrawText("* [ Admin ] : #FFFFFF"..theMessage, 22, 202, 180, 250, tocolor(150,0,0), 1.3, "default", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
    dxDrawText(theAdmin, 32, 225, 206, 250, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
end 
  
-- bindKey("u", "down", "chatbox", "AM") -- Won't work, what did u try to do ? 

And please use a real script editing tool like Notepad++ which is free and use tabs to keep your code indeted properly.

ty but i edit what did u do to this

function msg(thePlayer, cmd, ...) -- '...' will catch all words you wrote after the command 
  
  
if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "oneradmin" ) ) or isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "Head.Admin" ) ) or 
isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "Console" ) )  or isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "big.Admin" ) )  then end 
  
    local message = table.concat({...}, " ") -- so it will catch your sentence but without spaces, need to concat all words with a space between them 
    if #message == 0 then -- if there is no message 
        outputChatBox("[ERROR] You must specify a message with that command !", thePlayer, 200, 0, 0) 
    else if message == "Delete" then -- if the message is exactly Delete then ask for all clients to stop rendring the message 
        triggerClientEvent("hideAdminMessage", thePlayer) 
    else -- else it's a real message so ask them to get it and start rendering it 
        triggerClientEvent("showAdminMessage", thePlayer, message) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("admin", msg) 

Client

local adminMsg = {adminName, message} -- this struct will store our admin's name and his message 
  
-- SHOW 
addEvent("showAdminMessage", true) 
function showAdminMessage(theMessage) 
    local theAdminName = getPlayerName(source) -- I triggered that event with the player who used the command so source is our admin 
    adminMsg = {adminName=theAdminName, message=theMessage} -- updating the struct 
    addEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx) -- start rendering 
end 
addEventHandler("showAdminMessage", root, showAdminMessage) -- root is the same as getRootElement() 
  
-- HIDE 
addEvent("hideAdminMessage", true) 
function hideAdminMessage() 
    removeEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), dx) -- stop rendering 
end 
addEventHandler("hideAdminMessage", root, hideAdminMessage) -- root is the same as getRootElement() 
  
  
function dx() 
    local theAdmin = adminMsg.adminName 
    local theMessage = adminMsg.message 
    dxDrawText("* [ Admin ] : #FFFFFF"..theMessage, 22, 202, 180, 250, tocolor(150,0,0), 1.3, "default", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
    dxDrawText(theAdmin, 32, 225, 206, 250, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00, "default-bold", "left", "top", false, false, true, true, false) 
end 
bindKey("u", "down", "chatbox", "AM") 
  

and its not work : ( Sorry for the distrubance

You really need to know what you are doing if you want to script things by yourself. You just copied paste some code you found somewhere.

You had to put the original code of msg function between the if blablabla admin blabla then and the end that closes that if statement:

Server:

function msg(thePlayer, cmd, ...) -- '...' will catch all words you wrote after the command 
    if (isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "oneradmin" ) ) 
        or isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "Head.Admin" ) ) 
        or isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "Console" ) ) 
        or isObjectInACLGroup ( "user." .. accName, aclGetGroup ( "big.Admin" ) ) ) then -- the "if admin" statement 
         
        local message = table.concat({...}, " ") -- so it will catch your sentence but without spaces, need to concat all words with a space between them 
        if #message == 0 then -- if there is no message 
            outputChatBox("[ERROR] You must specify a message with that command !", thePlayer, 200, 0, 0) 
        else if message == "Delete" then -- if the message is exactly Delete then ask for all clients to stop rendring the message 
            triggerClientEvent("hideAdminMessage", thePlayer) 
        else -- else it's a real message so ask them to get it and start rendering it 
            triggerClientEvent("showAdminMessage", thePlayer, message) 
        end 
         
    end -- end of the "if admin" statement 
end 
addCommandHandler("admin", msg)
