Help with a simple edit :)

[koragg]

Hey guys, I need a little help with editing a live radio stations script so that when somebody enters my server radio is off by default (so map music can be heard) and it should be able to be turned on (the live radio) via the "N" key on keyboard if the client wishes so.

Also i don't know why but even if I put radio volume to 0% in ESC-Settings-Audio the live radio volume doesn't change at all. It's not linked with the ESC-Settings-Audio interface i guess.

I can't create scripts and can barely edit them so please tell me what code to write and where. Here is link to the resource : http://www.mediafire.com/download/n2v7k ... eradio.zip

PS Resource isn't created by me nor do I wish to publish it without giving proper credit or before asking it's author. I just need the above edits for my own training server. I hope someone can help me with this, cheers

You should post the code here so we could take a look on it and help you with it.

Also if you don't understand and don't know anything about Lua then I suggest you to find someone who would make it for you.

This forum is just for helping people with broken code.

Good luck!

That's because it only applies to the native radio player within GTA San Andreas. The volume slider you'll need to change is MTA Volume, which is any sound produced via MTA itself.

Well I know how to edit some parameters and such stuff but I can't create .lua scripts. I was same with .cs for single player :\

I'm trying to learn it step by step but here is the code below. Maybe you can highlight the parts (or put comments) on what needs to be done to do my request. Also, can volume be changed from MTA slider to normal GTA SA Radio slider in ESC?

Thanks for anyone who helps with this

Btw this is the client.lua ^ as I think the things I need are both client sided.
