[BETA] GTAIV .Net ScriptHook

[CoMPMStR]

 

Dude, that was A W E S O M E! Keep up the good work 

I have to agree, I want to see the next episode NAO!!! I thought it was f*cking hilarious!

 

I know this doesn't have anything to do with the scripthook but if anyone has resident evil 5 and wants to test my new item/money trainer drop me a PM, I'd post the link but it's probably against forum rules or something. I'm going to release it on GCW when I find out if it works for more than just me. I hate having only 1 PC.

Looks really good!

 

OT: I'm currently asking myself if you need a tool where you can search all models easily (so you don't need 20tabs of gtamodding), read all scripts without decompiling them, search for all natives and getting displayed all the scripts where they were used and how R* used them (so you donn't need to search trough all scripts for 1 native). Here's a little preview of a very early alpha:

 

 

So please tell me if you need something like this.

How do I stop cars spawning in alleys?

World.GetNextPositionOnStreet()?

But the alley is part of the street, that is what i'm using

 

Just Checking if this is all right

Code

 

public BulletTime()   {       string Lilmcnessy = Settings.Filename;       //Settings.Filename = Lilmcnessy;       Keys Bull = Settings.GetValueKey("KEYS", "BULLETTIME", Keys.P);       BindKey(Bull, new KeyPressDelegate(Time));       this.Tick += new EventHandler(this.Time_Tick);   }

 

 

And ini, which is named lilmcnessy.ini

 

[bULLETTIME]KEYS = T

 

Just quoting myself to see if anyonje can help

 

How can I delete cars in an area when my scripts loads

I tried GTA.Native.Function.Call("CLEAR_AREA_OF_CARS" straight after public, but it didn't work

I need this so that if the scripts are reloaded my spawned cars can be deleted

I'm sure the native you're using would clear all the cars and not just the ones spawned with your script. It might not work because you could be specifying some incorrect parameters. I'd suggest to store the vehicles in a global variable, that way you can use them later at any time.

 

I don't know how you will detect that your script is being reloaded though, I don't think there's an event method for that. Too bad there isn't an overridable Dispose method that we can use when the scripts are terminated or crash to remove any and all resources used by the script. :hint.hint:

[lilmcnessy]

I tried this GTA.Native.Function.Call("CLEAR_AREA", -1622f, 813f, 29f, 250.0f, true);

but it only deleted ones that were there before not things I have spawned

 

How could I say this properly

 

(!GTA.Native.Function.Call<bool>("Has_Car_Been_Damaged_By_Car", carlist, pc)) 

 

(carlist is the listed vehicle and pc, player current vehicle)

I can't do that if the script crashes or it is reloaded

I think I found a way anyway -- it worked

I just used getpeds and getvehicles and then deleted them

 

what can I do about the carlist though

if I use this

 

for (int g = bansheelist.Count - 1; g > -1; g--)               {                   if (Exists(bansheelist[g]))                   {                       if (bansheelist[g].Health > 0)                       {                           if ((!GTA.Native.Function.Call<bool>("Has_Car_Been_Damaged_By_Car", bansheelist[g], pc)) ||                           (!GTA.Native.Function.Call<bool>("Has_Car_Been_Damaged_By_Char", bansheelist[g], p)))                           {                               Game.DisplayText("Test");                          }

It just crashes

Are you checking that pc Exists before calling the native? That's the only reason I can see it crashing.

 

I'm assuming p is Player.Character and if so then you don't have to check if it exists, but it's not a bad habit to get into. If it's another ped than you MUST check if it exists as well.

Ah yes I what was wrong, I didn't check if ped was in a car

but the native (!GTA.Native.Function.Call<bool>("Has_Car_Been_Damaged_By_Char", bansheelist[g], p))

Doesn't look like it works properly

 

How could I make a ped stay at a location

eg He gets into combat but after the combat is finished he runs back to his spawned location

Hi guys!

 

I haven't been active for a long time, and I just found out I still have a funny little mod sitting on my harddrive .

 

It's basically my custom-made trainer, with some nice extra's:

-Settings file (INI)

-You can customize the settings from in-game

-Some basic trainer stuff (turbo boost, FPS counter, etc)

-Select peds is the main portion, though.

This doesn't mean "select" as in "select the model", no it actually means selecting specific peds. An example: you press the E key. A light shines around niko indicating you are in "ped-select mode". Now you simply aim at peds to select them. They will get a light shining under them, and a Blip attached to them.

 

Now for the fun part You can select what to apply to the peds. This includes;

-Die

-Delete

-Forced Hands-Up

-Burn

-Force

-Enter/Exit vehicle

-Fight <----- Very buggy, DO NOT USE.

 

-Ring of Death (creates a red ring of light around niko. Any peds coming into the ring will die)

 

Anyway, it's a little project of mine, for my personal use. I'll never be able to bring it up to shape to release it in any form, but maybe it can inspire some of you guys to do something with it?

The source code is here: http://ruby.pastebin.com/f74965d6b\

 

EDIT:

There's still a lot of bugs in this thing, but maybe it helps someone

[Intosia]

Nice The same here, have alot of code laying around. Most are just fun scripts ii made. Nothing to release really.

[CoMPMStR]

I've already implemented your "Ring of Death" into my superjump script (I call it "Final Judgement" though), very similar to yours infact, just never got around to finishing up the rest of the script for a release. It creates a light around niko (color is customizable ofc) and as the radius increases it kills all peds or vehicles within the radius. It's nice because it doesn't just kill everything at once, it actually kills the closer entities before the further entities. It also sends them flying in the opposite direction as if the "explosion" was coming from niko's position, plus in the air with some rotation to give a nice after effect. I love running around holding down the hotkeys, so much fun just watching everything explode 2 blocks away (or in the middle of a crowded intersection)! The only downside is you can't use it on all missions.

 

I planned on implementing some of the ped functions into my teleport script, since it contains a function to warp all peds or vehicles around niko. I was going to make a cyclable feature to choose which action to do on the peds or vehicles but just didn't get around to it. I had other things I wanted to test that took up more time than I anticipated, so when I was done I had already forgotten about it.

 

I also created a Blox Launcher, that shoots those glowing blocks randomly. When I say randomly, I mean the block models and not direciton. Just aim with any gun and fire away.. you can knock cars back flying but if you shoot a ped they mostly do an animation instead of just ragdolling. Still fun though! I was going to use the poolballs but they don't do anything when you hit a car or ped, even with tons of force.

[thaCURSEDpie]

Haha, cool Compmstr!

 

My Ring of Death is very primitive . It's a very small ring around Niko.

I tried it with a very large ring first, but that didn't go too well. When the ring get's too big (I let it keep on growing), you could actually see the peds getting spawned and killed in the distance. (+ the light doesn't work well at a large distance).

 

EDIT:

I'll check out your superjump script now. Bad thing about GTA is my FPS stays around 15-18 Dammit.

Brilliant having are you.. Excellent job...Amazing...

I wanted to replicate Alexander Blade's "damage in car" script for Alice in .NET or C++, but I pretty much only know two native functions. The idea of the script is to remove player health based on damage taken by your car. Would this be very simple to do, or does it involve some tricks? If it's very easy maybe one of you coding gurus could write something up real quick? Or just give some tips? Thanks for any help, and sorry for being a know-nothing noob.

Well if I remember correctly, the normal health of cars is 1000. So you just divide this by 10 and then set players health to it. Or was the mod relative, I mean if you entered a damaged vehicle was your health instantly set to the vehicles health or did it just changed as soon as the vehicle got damaged? If so, you can save the health the car had when entered and subtract the current health and divide this by 10 and then subtract it from player health. Hope you understand that

Hey, i've been trying to access the console, but i don't have a US keyboard with the ~ key. So how will i do it?

I'm not sure (I got a german keyboard), but I think it's always the key under the 'esc' key, above the 'tab' key, on the left side of the '1' key.

Here is a lil example how to load another ini file and how to get the key value...

 

    public class ToggleConsole : Script   {       private SettingsFile Ini;       private Keys ConsoleKey;       public ToggleConsole()       {           GeneralInfo = "ToggleConsole Script...";           Ini = SettingsFile.Open(Game.InstallFolder + "\\scripts\\ToggleConsole.ini");           Ini.Load();           ConsoleKey = Ini.GetValueKey("ConsoleKey", "Config", Keys.F12);           this.KeyDown += new GTA.KeyEventHandler(this.OpenConsole);           BindConsoleCommand("CloseConsole", new ConsoleCommandDelegate(this.CloseConsole), "- Close Console");       }       private void OpenConsole(object sender, GTA.KeyEventArgs e)       {           if (e.Key == ConsoleKey)           {               Game.Console.Open();           }       }       private void CloseConsole(ParameterCollection Parameter)       {           Game.Console.Close();       }   }

 

...and here is the ini content...

 

[Config]ConsoleKey = F9

 

...you can also use key-codes.

That snippet is also a 'detour' solution for Kuppih's prob, but it's already solved.

 

@Kuppih: Good to know that it's working now and I think 'ö' is ok...strange but ok.

No one would use that key for script binding.

Here's my version of oinkoink's 'Damage in Car ' snippet, http://oinkoink.pastebin.com/m4ca59fc6. I didn't actually test it, just noticed some things that I'd do differently, maybe it can help someone.

[Symbiote]

Thanks a lot for the Damage in Car scripts. I saved CoMPMStR's revision to a file and it doesn't seem to need any more revision, works perfectly. I just changed the divisor of the car damage from 15 to 10 to make it a little less forgiving. Thanks again, you did all the work!

 

EDIT: Bullet damage to the car hurts the player. Is there any way to distinguish between collisions and bullets?

I don't think GPS tracking is yet available for the coord blips, what I did was use an invisible ped instead. Just create a ped at the same location with the visible property set to false and attach a blip to it, then do what you want with the blip from there. You can optionally use the native ("SET_CHAR_COLLISION", ped, enabled) to disable the ped collision so you don't have an invisible ped blocking the way. Also don't forget to freeze the ped's position.

 

I almost certain that the game units are in meters so speed and such should be m/s, sorry if I'm wrong.

 

You can't edit any GTA.Forms.Form from VS, you will have to add the controls manually with code or use my visual dialog designer I posted a few pages back (I forgot which page). We are still waiting for Hazard to implement visual form design from VS so when he does you won't get this error anymore.

 

In your new script, did you add Inherits Script directly beneath the Class declaration. For example:

 

Public Class MyScriptInherits Script...

 

 

For C# it would be something like:

 

public class MyScript : Script...

 

 

 

@AngryAmoeba: You can try the native ("HAS_CAR_BEEN_DAMAGED_BY_WEAPON", vehicle, weapon) and use the weapon enum Misc_AnyWeapon. I'm not sure if the native ("CLEAR_CAR_LAST_WEAPON_DAMAGE", vehicle) will be of any use but it's there as well for a reason.

Thanks again! Man, my first guess looks pretty dumb now. Anyway the crash + get shot bug doesn't seem too bad, so I'll leave it because I can't think of any way to fix it. I just added a threshold so minor crashes don't hurt.
