fetchRemote

Hello, can somebody help me how to use fetchRemote to download and apply some car mods(dff and txd) when player finish his current download, lie a background download so the player can play and download in the same time, thanks.

Right, so basically fetchRemote allows clients to download files from HTTP servers.

But how I can check when the player finish the Mta download and start downloading the car mods?

onClientResourceStart event.

It won't help..

onClientResourceStart will fire when the resource is finished downloading. Start your downloads using this event.

it's actually onClientResourceStart with resourceRoot, not with a simple root. Just not to confuse the OP author

Thanks anyway, i posted that code in forum but nobody helped, hope someone see what's wrong, or just show me how i can use fetchRemote.

addEventHandler ("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource ()), 
function () 
 exports.download:downloadFile ("infernus.txd", "infernus.txd", 500) 
 exports.download:downloadFile ("infernus.dff", "infernus.dff", 500) 
end) 
  
addEventHandler ("onClientDownloadComplete", getRootElement(), 
function (theFile) 
if theFile == ":/test/cars/infernus.txd" then  
local theTXD = engineLoadTXD ( theFile ) 
engineImportTXD ( theTXD, 411 ) 
elseif theFile == ":/test/cars/infernus.dff" then 
local theDFF = engineLoadDFF ( theFile, 411 ) 
engineReplaceModel ( theDFF, 411) 
 end 
 end) 

If its only about these 2 files, why don't you just put them in your meta so they get auto downloaded?

You can still create a function to enable/disable them or a function to delete them after they were imported if its about protection.
