you could have made a GUI Button in the DX Rectangle , and make the GUI Button alpha 0

anyways whats the error. and is the export in the Meta.xml? and any errors on /debugscript 3?

It should be cause "player" isn't a player element.

check out the https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/TriggerServerEvent function again and fully understand how it works.

I changed root to getLocalPlayer()

I have this error: Bad Argument: giveWeapon [Expected Argument at 1, got nil] ...

It should be cause "player" isn't a player element.

        function m4p () 
        --triggerServerEvent ( "m4", getLocalPlayer() ) 
        givePedWeapon (getLocalPlayer(), 31, 50, true) 
        end 
        addEventHandler ("onClientDXClick", m4, m4p) 

Its possible to make it working with givePedWeapon.. But my function doesnt work((

[Bean666]

try

function m4p () 
        triggerServerEvent ( "m4", getLocalPlayer(), m4 ) 
        end 
        addEventHandler ("onClientDXClick", m4, m4p) 

function m4 () 
giveWeapon (source, 31, 50, true) 
end 
addEvent ("m4", true) 
addEventHandler("m4", getRootElement() ,m4) 

[opnaiC]

try

function m4p () 
        triggerServerEvent ( "m4", getLocalPlayer(), m4 ) 
        end 
        addEventHandler ("onClientDXClick", m4, m4p) 

function m4 () 
giveWeapon (source, 31, 50, true) 
end 
addEvent ("m4", true) 
addEventHandler("m4", getRootElement() ,m4)

--Server Side 
function m4(thePlayer) 
      giveWeapon(thePlayer, 31, 50, true) 
end 
addEvent("m4", true) 
addEventHandler("m4", root, m4) 
  
--Client Side 
m4 = exports.dxgui:dxCreateButton(167, 65, 113, 26, "M4" window) 
            function m4p() 
                  triggerServerEvent("m4", localPlayer) 
            end 
           addEventHandler("onClientDXClick", m4, m4p)

Try changin your line

triggerServerEvent("m4", root)

to

  
triggerServerEvent("m4", localPlayer, localPlayer) 

And dont change anything on serverside code

--Server  
addEvent("m4v", true) 
addEventHandler("m4v", root, 
function() 
     
    giveWeapon(source, 31, 50) 
  
      end 
) 
  
  
  
--Client  
m4 = exports.dxgui:dxCreateButton(167, 65, 113, 26, "M4" window) 
            
           addEventHandler("onClientDXClick", m4,       
     
   function() 
               
              triggerServerEvent("m4v", localPlayer) 
          
         end 
  
)
