How to install

Step 1 (Unpack resource)

First update your server to the latest version! You need atleast version 1.5.2 anything lower is not supported! Type 'ver' without quotes into the server console (F8) to see what version you're running.

Unpack the zip file to your server resources folder: Multi Theft Auto\server\mods\deathmatch\resources\ in a new folder called CinemaExperience

Make sure you're an admin on your server if you don't know how to do that go and read the MTA wiki.

Step 2 (grant resource admin access)

Press P on your keyboard to open your admin panel and add the resource to the Admin ACL group

To do that go to the Resources tab and click on the 'Manage ACL' button in the top right corner then

double click 'Admin' under 'Groups' and press 'Add Object'. Type in resource.CinemaExperience and click on OK.

Step 3 (start resource)

Now start the resource. Open the in-game console (F8) and type in refresh and press enter, then type in start CinemaExperience and hit enter again.

Step 4 (add yourself as VIP)

Finally, you need to add yourself as VIP in the cinema panel. In order to do that, enter the cinema and press F2 to open up the cinema panel.

Now open the Settings tab, then open the Visitors tab (on the right side of the panel) and select your name. Click on 'Add/remove VIP'.

That's it! You have now access to all the settings so you can enjoy our Cinema Experience to the fullest

How to change binds

You can change the bind for toggling the panel in the s-binds.Lua file.

Known issues / FAQ

Installation:

- I can't connect to API? Make sure the resource has admin privileges and server is up to date (1.5.2). Also try extracting the resource.

- I can't add videos? If you can't control the settings after you've added yourself as VIP, unpack the resource and delete the config files in the cfg folder.

Still need help? Leave us a message below or contact me through the G&T Mapping Facebook page (link at the bottom or top)

Panel:

- There's ads covering the screen! Sometimes there may be ads covering the video on the screen. You can click on the Skip Ads button to refresh the video, usually this will remove any ads on the video. Sorry for the inconvenience. There is no other solution at the moment.

In the future

- Add option to limit how many videos can be added per user

- Add option to set the max length of a video

- Add option to change the screens width and height and position

Amazing script!

I really loved it, i already tested it.

Everything is working but seems there's something annoying

When i press on the button to move to a playlist, it doesn't do it, it pops-out a message saying "Connection Timed Out - Couldn't reach API"

I hope there's a solution for this.

Good work for making this script, can't wait to see the final version!

[Tails]

Thanks all! @Fiction we're currently working out what's causing it. It seems like the Google APIs are getting blocked by your server/host. We will release the source tonight or tomorrow.

Thanks by here resource beatiful !!

Love Cinema !!

[Tails]

Thanks, LeSilver.

Update your server and client to the latest version. That should fix the problem.

Cinema Experience updated!

Changelog - Beta ver.1.0.1:

-

 Now open-source!

- [API] "Fix" for connection issue - Update your server to the latest version!

- [GUI] Slightly raised video info so the progressbar doesn't overlap it on widescreen resolutions.

- [GUI] Help font size slightly reduced.

- [GUI] Made more room to display the help text, it should now fit properly on all resolutions.

Hi, I'm from Russia, I downloaded your site registered in admin but writes This resource does not have access to fetchRemote yet! I'm just not probyval did everything according to instructions

[Tails]

Thanks everyone for the nice comments!

@ rai2221,

Make sure you type in the resource name correctly, it's case-sensitive.

So not resource.cinemaexperience but resource.CinemaExperience

EDIT: My mistake. The resource by default is named cinemaexperience. So in that case you need to type in: resource.cinemaexperience. Sorry for the confusion.

swtiched it to minimum version 1.5 through the meta, but now it says timed out cant connect to API or something. i have it in the admin ACL, what can i do? (P.S. i switched i to 1.5 because the default version it was set at was incompatible with my server. not sure why but it only worked on my local server. my server is 1.5.2)

What do you mean with it only worked on your local server? The reason you probably can't connect is because the Google API only supports https and your server doesn't support it or has it disabled for some reason. Mta only supports https since version 1.5.2. So make sure your server is indeed running 1.5.2. Type in ver in your server console to see which version you're running. If it is 1.5.2 then I can only suggest you try to reinstall the server and see if that helps anything.

If you happen to be running your server at Vortex Servers, we had one person reporting the same issue to us and was running a server at Vortex.

When he tested it on his own local server, the resource was working fine.

Let me know if it helps or if you're still having issues so we can look for a solution.

i tried switching the meta setting back to 1.5.2, and i got this message

[2016-08-22 17:21:16] Not starting resource cinemaexperience as this server version is too low (1.5.2 required)

[2016-08-22 17:21:16] ERROR: Unable to restart resource cinemaexperience

[2016-08-22 17:21:32] Not starting resource cinemaexperience as this server version is too low (1.5.2 required)

[2016-08-22 17:21:32] startResource: Failed to start resource 'cinemaexperience'

im positive im running 1.5.2, is there any way to solve this without restarting the server preferably?

UPDATE: i did a server restart (had to be done anyway) and still no luck

[Tails]

Are you running the server on your local computer? Also it really does seem you need to update it regardless if you think it's already 1.5.2 because it might be a different build.

Use the installer on the frontpage (http://www.mtasa.com), preferable change the folder location for a clean install, then move over your settings, databases, resources etc.

If you're running your server elsewhere, then contact your server host to see if you can get the latest update.

messaged my host, ill let you know what they say

[5150]

so i updated my server but when i did, it wiped my ACL and .conf back to default so i need to fix all that before i can test the resource

[Tails]

Any luck?

[5150]

sorry so late haha, was out for a few days. after they succeeded in wiping my server to default they wanted me to upload my local server to my hosted one in a zip via filezilla, to test and compare the two. i closed the ticket and told them its too much to do for one resource. if you guys have an easier solution id love to hear it, otherwise ill have to stick to using either only the map, or just sticking to my local server. its really weird. both servers are confirmed 1.5.2
