^ You might have a lot more luck if you move scripthook.dll into the main GTAIV directory.

 

Unless you have an asi loader that does support loading asi's from the plugins directory (hint NOT dsound) it might help to move your script there too.

Well, I just got a x64 install of Win7 going.... going to need some time to figure this out, but its fairly odd that it worked just fine in Vista x64.

 

Please do Aru, I have many ideas for mods involving globals and for now im stuck.

I succesfully used Game::GetBase() In a script but using Game::GetGlobalAddress() and derivatives seems to always crash me on Win 7 x64.

Hi everyone,

 

I've been enjoying using my newly written trailer in MP (thanks to all your help of course)

 

Does anyone know how to use this function to get water levels changed?

 

Here's what I've been working on:

 

 

void CustomFiberThread::WaterLevelAdjustment(){//f32 x, y, z;//f32 xoff, yoff, zoff;//Ped ped = GetPlayerPed();//if (IsCharInWater(GetPlayerPed()))//{ //GetCharCoordinates(ped, &x, &y, &z); //GetOffsetFromCharInWorldCoords(ped, X, Y, Z, &xoff, &yoff, &zoff); waterLevel -=1; // point at current object to be seen (increments backward) if (waterLevel <  -9999999) //12 { 	waterLevel = 1; // 1 }//}// //Water water;// GetWaterHeight (x,y,z,par1, par2, par3, par4, par5, par6); // 5,8,9,13 par5 (<4 hides water, 5 vis water w/height waves, 8/9 - water invisible, 13 vis water w/no waves GetWaterHeightNoWaves(5 - waterLevel, 2000, 17 + waterLevel, 2000);GetWaterHeight(5 - waterLevel, 2000, 15 + waterLevel, waterMode);//GetWaterHeight(waterMode , 3000 - waterLevel, -3000 - waterLevel,  waterLevel);//GetWaterHeight(waterMode , 3000 - waterLevel, -3000 - waterLevel,  waterLevel);//GetWaterHeightNoWaves(ped, 3000 - waterLevel, -3000 - waterLevel,  waterLevel);sprintf_s(mes1, 300,"Changing the water height: %i, %i, %i, %i" , 5 - waterLevel, 2000, 17 + waterLevel, waterMode);PrintStringWithLiteralStringNow("STRING", mes1, 9500, 1);}

 

 

You will probably noticed all the comments (//). I was testing a whole lot of things and could never get the friggin thing to work.

 

Oh well this is only one of the minor problems with the new patch.

 

If anybody has figured this out using the Script Hook (other than modifying the water.dat file) let me know.

 

Also has anybody ever figured out ApplyForcetoCar and ApplyForcetoPed natives? Never got those working either. Just curious.

 

Thanks!

Hey i got a small question.

 

I save car with

Vehicle mycar;

GetCarCharIsUsing(c, &mycar);

 

But how i put back the mycar variable. Because, when i am play mission and npc use the vehicle and drives away.. then gta crashes.

[C06alt]

You should check for the exsistance of an object ped or vehicle before trying to use a command on it.

 

 

if(DoesVehicleExist(mycar)){    // u could do some car command here e.g   SetVehAlarm(mycar, true);}

 

 

 

When it dirves away it probably deletes its self so mycar is nolonger valid.

I'm going to try and find the old scripthook i had and see it it works

 

Edit: I was originally using scripthook 2.6.0 but replaced it with this new one so i can use police pursuit mod, and now I'm getting all these errors that are killing my game, So Can someone help me get that older version of the scripthook? Cus the new one crashes all the time for me

 

Edit: Found the older scripthook, My games working again, so 0.4.0 or w.e. is weird for vista 64 unless its comflicting with something else i have in the folder? shrug

Hey

I have a problem.

Im programmed a .net script with the scripthook 0.3. In the Gta IV directory is the dsound.dll, scripthook.dll, trainer.asi and filecheckfix.asi.

In the folder scripts is the .net script.

When i start gta the .net script doesnt work? Nothing happened, no console and so on. But the trainer.asi works.

Where is the problem? Its gta IV 1.0.0.4 (5#patch) and the scripthook.dll is from aru (c++)

 

Sry for my bad english

Hey there. I wrote a Lua script to output all the functions and their arguments from Scripting.h in a Php array format, and put it up on a website, added some funky searching and styling and this is the result:

Please help. this is my first C++ script.

[Zach]

 

closestCar = GetClosestCar(x, y, z, 50.0f, 0, 70):

 

 

See that line there? ^ You used a colon instead of semi-colon at the end. (Probably still inadvertently had the shift key down when typing the parenthesis... happens to all of us.)

 

Edit:

 

 

MarkCarAsNoLongerNeeded(&closestCar):

 

 

^ You did it there, too, probably for the same reason.

Hi everyone, i am having a bit of troubles with running this when i go to play multiplayer, I have GTA 4 Patch 5 (1.0.0.4/1.0.5.0) and latest scripthook, it works fine in singleplayer but when I try to use multiplayer I get "The connection to LIVE was lost. Returning to singleplayer." (Tested on LAN Free Mode) but if I remove scripthook.dll multiplayer works with no errors. I am also using the file check fix so if it is supposed to be blocked i should be able to use it.

Any ideas on how i can get it working?

 

Edit: I am using Windows 7 x64.

Hey guys.. is there command to restart/reload script??? i am still using 2.6 xd

[ace_topspeed]

Why you play with 1.0.0.0 version ?

What's utility for you ?

Do an update of your games, or use an old version of scripthook. That's all.

I did an update for GTA IV v1.0.0.0. to v1.0.1.0. but it crashed my game!!!!

I Reinstalled the game and then i have the same game crash!!!!

I Reinstalled it again and it was fixed!!!!

I will Never do it again!!!!

Installing the GTA IV takes 40 minutes!!!!

Hi

 

I loved this trainer, but recently upgraded from windows 7 (beta) to retail and installed gta 4 but now when i try and run the game its asking to update Games For Windows and the trainer wont work.

 

Ive tried by passing this using xliveless and still when i hit F1 nothing happens (but the game running LaunchGTA seems laggy)

 

I had the latest patch (patch 5) before on 7 beta and it worked , i cant figure out why it wont work anymore.

 

Ive completely removed GTA4 and will do a clean install again and await any comments or help from others who have this trainer working with Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.

 

Thanks

I was wondering how would i get the current vehicle that your player is in?

[sjaak327]

I was wondering how would i get the current vehicle that your player is in?

That's easy:

 

 

Char c; 	Vehicle veh; 	u32 playerIndex = ConvertIntToPlayerIndex(GetPlayerId()); 	GetPlayerChar(playerIndex, &c);   if (IsCharSittingInAnyCar© == 1)   {   GetCarCharIsUsing(c,&veh);

 

 

When you want to do stuff later on with it, it doesn't hurt to do:

 

 

if ((veh.IsValid())&&(DoesVehicleExist(veh))){SetCarHealth(veh,1000);}

 

[Herleybob]

Thank you for the code. I didnt know how to start it off.

[Herleybob]

I guess my game doesnt wanna work. i compile SampleCustom on release and transfer the ScriptHook.dll and SampleCustom.dll into my game directory and run it but it doesnt seem to work. I have other mods and a trainer that works, but not my mod.

[thaCURSEDpie]

I'm having a bit of trouble with the dev-loader...

 

It's set up correctly. I start GTA. I get the message:

"Loading module myModName.asi"

"Starting Developer Menu Thread"

 

Etc.

 

But when I get in-game, my mod doesnt work. I press ALT+F12 to open up the Dev-Loader menu, but all I see is 'about', I can't 're-load' my mod...

 

EDIT:

Nevermind... Screwed up my mod. There was a

For me, devloader doesn't seem to work. My game won't start up after copying d3d9.dll in gta directory.

Anyone having the same issue? What I'm doing wrong?

 

Any help appreciated.

u need to rename SampleCustom.dll to SampleCustom.asi !! and also u need the asi loader which is a dsound.dll

Ok thank you. i will try that and see if it will work. I have xlive so that should work.

Hello everyone, I wanna know if is possible to keep C++ Scripthook with the .Net Scripthook (because both files have the same name "Scripthook.dll") in the GTA IV folder????

[orchard]

Hello,

 

Is there anyway to share Player, Vehicle, Object etc variables between ScriptThreads? I'm writing wrapper classes with all relevant functions to keep things tidy and I wanted to do so, but it seems that the variables are specific to the thread they are created on.

 

Thanks.

Hello guys,

 

I have been actively hard at work innovating new features into my up and coming trainer. It was originally called Super Mega Trainer, but I realized somebody has used that name and I'll be forced to modify it before a public release.

 

Recently, I purchased an OEM version of Windows 7. Now while I contest that the graphics, adaptability, and ease of use are now more accessible, I cannot for the life of me get my trainer to become active in the GTA environment. I have utilized the same procedures for modding such as dsound.dll, FileCheckfix, etc with the latest editions that are available and have still failed.

 

I am also using the new native calls implemented by Aru, such as { return NativeInvoke::Invoke<NATIVE_IS_NETWORK_PLAYER_ACTIVE, ScriptVoid(xx, xx, xx) etc. Yet still I cannot launch my embedded trainer after the game has finished loading. One note of mention, my trainer was successful when I was using Vista. Now I have read somewhere that Vista is creating new memory conflicts with mods. Is there a solution or a work around to enable a mod using Script Hook features to become active in the game?

 

I address numerous amount of concepts here because I want to understand what has happened since the birth of Vista to it's predecessor, Windows 7. Has anyone here (notable mention to Aru and sjaak327) been able to defeat this new learning curve?

 

Obviously by my title name you know I am a strong believer in keeping mods active. Because of the help of SneakyJanit0r I was able to accomplish this. Yet I pull for everyone else here as well when I continue to share my information among a vast audience. I am an engineer by choice and welcome others to walk the same programming path of learning how to mod, etc. So my bottom line question is what are we doing to bang heads with the game manufacturers to keep mods alive? Now I am aware that sjaak327 has defeated this shift with his Simple Native Trainer, which seems to work in Windows 7. How can we band together to create a Script Hook that can create more entertaining mods, keep noobs at bay, and keep open source mods a forever reality?

 

The only thing I noticed was when I examined the asilog log my trainer has not loaded successfully. Here's the line when it scanned my file.

 

ASI loaded : C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto IV\SampleCustomFiber.asi, Address 0x00000000

 

Therefore the 0's indicate that it has failed to occupy a hash address. I know this happened before, but I can't for the life of me understand what I am not doing. I even received a successful launch message when I first ran dsound.dll and know its active since it shows memory addresses for all the directX calls.

 

 

 

So in closing, I'm hoping that we can unite again under the weight of a new dynamic windows environment and protection schemes to keep mods active in the GTA IV (on all platforms) world. Thanks for listening.

 

Oh and my game name is StevorNtheHouse.

 

PS: A peek at my Youtube channel.

 

 

 

This is when I had it running Windows Vista with patch 5.

I went ahead and figured out what the codes are for the Xbox360 controller:

 

 

(goes in Scripting.h)

 

enum ePadButton   {               BUTTON_BACK = 0xD,               BUTTON_START = 0xC, BUTTON_X = 0xE, BUTTON_Y = 0xF, BUTTON_A = 0x10, BUTTON_B = 0x11, BUTTON_DPAD_UP = 0x8, BUTTON_DPAD_DOWN = 0x9, BUTTON_DPAD_LEFT = 0xA, BUTTON_DPAD_RIGHT = 0xB, BUTTON_TRIGGER_LEFT = 0x5, BUTTON_TRIGGER_RIGHT = 0x7, BUTTON_BUMPER_LEFT = 0x4, BUTTON_BUMPER_RIGHT = 0x6, BUTTON_STICK_LEFT = 0x12, BUTTON_STICK_RIGHT = 0x13     };

 

 

I don't know about the Guide button though.
