Does passing a random RGBA (in a single DWORD) value still work as it did in San Andreas?

I've never modded San Andreas so I can't really say.

 

I just tried creating 20 blips in Alice and used CHANGE_BLIP_COLOUR(blip.a, math.random(0, 65535)) to set each to a random colour in the range 0 - 65535, and each blip was a different shade of blue.

 

I don't know whether that answers your question or not.

Yep, that's supposed to happen if the support for it is still there. Thanks for testing it, I need it for a future IV mod of mine.

I have made a complete list of AWARD_ACHIEVEMENT by comparing the list on Rockstar's site and the ones in the game. I don't want to test it right now but is it possible to cheat the achievements?

Sure it is and 51 isnt "Taking a Liberty", it just continues with TLAD- and TBoGT-achieves

51 TLAD: One Percenter

52 TLAD: The Lost Boy

53 TLAD: Easy Rider

...

65 TBoGT: Gold Star

for 1.0.6.0, this will allow you to get a Scripting::Ped from CPed, i didn't know where to post it so i picked here, i could probably link to it from aru's scripthook topic also.

Has anyone found a function for selecting gears? There must be one . . .

Has anyone found a function for selecting gears? There must be one . . .

You could probably memory-search for that type of thing, i might later, but if its not a native then it is likely an offset from your CVehicle somewhere

 

If you want just pickup tsearch or whatever, and use a native trainer to "pause" the game (you might even be able to "pause" in SP, with ESC, and itll freeze the gear state)

then search for gear, it is probably likely a single BYTE, WORD or INT (1,2,4 bytes), my bet is on 1 byte since there is always so few of them, anyway, search for the value which is probably 0 (or 1) to GEAR_MAX which is probably 6 or 8 in most vehicles.

I have no clue as to how to go about searching. If you could help t'would be great.

I updated the wiki bone-related functions and made a new page "Ped_Bones", here is the correct listing from assembly, all bones included:

I'm trying to compile a list of all GXT entries in TBOGT. Only a few tables are completed.

Does anyone have or can anyone make a full list? Its tough doing all these by hand.

 

Completed tables:
