[BETA] GTAIV .Net ScriptHook

[LMS]

I don't have .net exceptions, but unmanaged exceptions and so I had hoped you got exceptions at the same offset everytime so we maybe can find the issue.

Hi pls when i wanna compile TestScript, compiler shows me a lot of errors, which are saying about undeclared scriptings like Player, Ped, ...I m using VS 2008...

[LMS]

SHDN uses .NET Framework 4, so you won't be able to use it with VS 2008. So I guess you can solve your problems by updating to the latest Visual Studio.

When creating the script do you need to use any external code? For example in C# putting Using... or is the code for example the invincible health/ammo C# in the first post compiled as is? Also, does the Scripts folder go in the same folder as GTAVI or another folder?

You need a reference to the ScriptHookDotNet.dll in the developers folder included in the zip.

 

The using directive is just for convenience.

 

Rather than having to do GTA.World.Weather, you just do World.Weather, if you've used the using directive on the GTA namespace.

I can't get the scripts working even through I put them in a folder called "scripts" located inside the "Grand Theft Auto IV" folder and run the game.

Have you installed the hook? And an asi loader?

If you mean extracting them to the root GTA IV folder then yes I have.

Which asi loader are you using?

That's not an asi loader. That's the script hook. You need an asi loader. Like XLiveLess.

Ah ok, I am using dsound.dll and now it is working.

Does that remove anti-debugger checks? If not, you won't be able to debug your projects. If it doesn't remove anti-debugger checks, I suggest you use XLiveLess.

I wouldn't know but just to be safe I will use xliveless.

thanks

@ ^^:

 

Do your mods require an older patch version (.4) so updating is not an option ?

 

If not then update your game to the latest version but if they do require the older patch then you should be able to find an older version of the hook by searching in this thread, this has come up a few times.

No good reason not to update, really.

I couldn't find answer before so I'm typing new post. I have problem with ScriptHookDotNet.asi. I get no rain splash on objects. I can see it only any time I get to menu/map, hitting escape key or when pop up of upcoming message etc. comes up. I noticed also rain indoors. I don't mind to much the last thing too much but rain splash outside is one of cooler looking graphic effect. I really wanted to have rain effect but also keeping traffic control scripts.

This is text from log file.

The wiki has only a small subset of natives defined. This particular native is cleaned up in scripting.h, it has just one parm:type, which is most likely just an integer value.

Yep, figured as much. Thanks!

I didn't know it was backwards compatible, thanks for clearing that up.

 

I agree about the updating, no reason unless they have a long beard and a parrot on their shoulder in which case shame on them !

It's not important so I will ask this here and this isn't necessarily a request, but would it be possible to make all peds 'drunk'? I was thinking it would be an interesting take on a zombie mod.

No. The game limits the number of simultaneous ragdolls.

What's the difference between object.Exists() and Exists(object)?

 

I've been using the first one in some of my scripts, but while testing just now it wasn't preventing null reference crashes. So I changed it to the second one, and that fixed it.

[Donny78]

"Exists()" has the "!= null" check built in (I think).

 

 

[lindsayslorach]

Yeah, doesn't "Exists(obj);" do "obj.Exists() && obj != null"?

 

I think I read that that's what it does.

[MulleDK19]

 

Yeah, doesn't "Exists(obj);" do "obj.Exists() && obj != null"?

 

I think I read that that's what it does.

The other way around, actually.

 

This is pretty much what it does:

 

public static bool Exists(GTA.Object objectToCheck){   if (objectToCheck == null)       return false;   return objectToCheck.Exists();}

 

 

 

If you just use the obj.Exists(), it will only check if the object that obj represents exists by asking the game engine. This will cause a NullReferenceException if obj is null, 'cause you can't call anything on a null object.

 

If you use Game.Exists(obj), it will first check if obj is null, then call obj.Exists().

 

 

So, you should either do

 

if(obj != null && obj.Exists())

 

 

Or

 

if(Game.Exists(obj))
