Pandur 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 You could use DRAW_RECT to draw a Fuel bar. Use a Dark color (for example transparent black) as a backgroudn and some other color (like green) to draw the fuel level. You could also change the color of the fuel bar to red when fuel is low, or maybe even make it flashing in a red color. Yes, that would be pretty nice! I like the idea with the speedometer, too. Very useful!!! At the moment I dont know what I like more: GTAIV or its modders... Link to post Share on other sites
Leopard_ 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 OK, petrol mod v3 is released! Download at my forum. OK, I'm just about it to release v3. The money thing is broken. Trying to fix it. also gonna make a juicy text speedometer/fuel in next version! You could use DRAW_RECT to draw a Fuel bar. Use a Dark color (for example transparent black) as a backgroudn and some other color (like green) to draw the fuel level. You could also change the color of the fuel bar to red when fuel is low, or maybe even make it flashing in a red color. Hmm.. I suppose it is Draw Rectangle? I've searched it, but i didn't found the params (I'm using C++ script hook). If i know the params, i might do a good looking speedometer. The switch-to-red thing is a good idea, i maybe will do it.

sammclean23 7 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) hi, going for remaining petrol stations now has this been suggested: turning off petrol just for missions like the SA one? And after i will search for heli pads Sam Edited February 15, 2009 by sammclean23 Link to post Share on other sites
Leopard_ 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hmm... i don't know how to set money? Somebody say how to take/add money to niko? I also made an .ini now.

FunGt 56 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I tried the mod, nice one, but I found a bug. The fuel number can be also negative lol. You should make that the fuel number can't be under 0. Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew 54 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Its getting there slowly. I might release mine soon. Got a bit more work to be done. -3 different priced petrol stations -7 working petrol stations -2 stealing locations, gives you a 2 star wanted level -Saves one lot of fuel between saves. (press key to retrive fuel) -Each car has randomly generated amount of fuel -Expensive recovery option should you fun out of petrol. -Control hazard lights. Link to post Share on other sites

sammclean23 7 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) Finding it difficult locating the helipads because after flying around a while, the gas runs out. After the gas runs out, the gas runs out for all helicopters of that type i was flying the anihilator, landed got the police one, but gas was empty. disable helicopters fuel just till the pads are located? EDIT: or use these coordinates of two that ive already found to create a station to allow me to find the rest. 2162.20, 841.37, 18.47 2229.64, 736.53, 5.69 Sam Edited February 16, 2009 by sammclean23 Link to post Share on other sites

HazardX 13 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The DRAW_RECT fucntion for C++: static void DrawRect(f32 centerX, f32 centerY, f32 width, f32 height, u32 R, u32 G, u32 B, u32 A) { NativeInvoke::Invoke<scriptVoid>("DRAW_RECT", centerX, centerY, width, height, R, G, B, A); } In .Net scripts you can use PerFrameDrawing to draw text and rectangles on screen (there is an example included).
