Removing Buildings by Script

[stef538]

Hey guys,

 

I was wondering if it was possible to hide and disable the collission of buildings is something like this possible ?

[pedro2555]

Of buildings I doubt, but you can disable the collisions of other entities.

[LordOfTheBongs]

if u were to remove the building it would just be a big hole u could fall into, there isnt any ground under the buildings

[stef538]

I know, i just want to know if it's possible , i know it's possible in III/VC/SA

I know, i just want to know if it's possible , i know it's possible in III/VC/SA

if u have ever installed a map mod before then u would notice there is some file in the common/data folder (i think or it might be somewhere else) that has a list of map objects to load, maybe editing this files would prevent certain buildings from loading... u can do it via script if u can find where these get loaded and maybe edit the values in memory or detour the function that loads them maybe. Via script is not a beginner task.

[stef538]

Hmmm

[Hitoyoshi]

i have tried but i dont know how the remove the collisions

[stef538]

so you know how to remove the buildings but not the collision ?

[NTAuthority]

so you know how to remove the buildings but not the collision ?

the same way you just remove buildings, as collision is separate from the building objects

[stef538]

yeah but how to remove the building, scriptwise i mean

found a native like this : IS_MODEL_IN_CDIMAGE so Going to try it again!

[InfamousSabre]

Have you tried this native function?

 

SWAP_NEAREST_BUILDING_MODEL(float x, float y, float z, float radius, uint modelfrom, uint modelto);

 

Note that I have not tried this at all. Just saw the native and it looks useful if you can figure out the int (uint) to use for the models.

[stef538]

Only need to fix the collision, and how to get it back ? because REQUEST_MODEL doesn't exactly work..

Edited June 10, 2014 by stef538

[stef538]

ok so i got the model to be visible again, but still no luck with the collision.

[NTAuthority]

collisions for buildings are fixed in place as static bounds, nothing to do about that

[stef538]

Damn..

[AgentWD40]

maybe edit memory address while in-game? this open source by thaCURSEDpie might help you.

didn't really work, but can't we convert model to object ?

try this to test...

 

 

Vector3 p = Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Position;uint maxValueToCheck = 1000;//use whatever u likefloat radius = 10f;//go near some building for (uint x = 0; x <= maxValueToCheck; x++){    bool exit = false;    for (uint y = 0; y <= maxValueToCheck; y++)    {        if (Game.isKeyPressed(Keys.End))        {            Game.DisplayText("Exiting Building Swap Test...");            exit = true;            break;        }         Game.DisplayText("Calling SWAP_NEAREST_BUILDING_MODEL Native With Params:\nPosition: " + p.ToString() + "\nRadius: " + radius.ToString() + "\nModel From: " + x.ToString() + "\nModel To: " + y.ToString() + "\n\nPress Enter To Test!!");         while (!Game.isKeyPressed(Keys.Enter)) Wait(0);        GTA.Native.Function.Call("SWAP_NEAREST_BUILDING_MODEL", p.X, p.Y, p.Z, radius, x, y);         Game.DisplayText("Did anything happen?? Press Enter To Continue!!");        while (!Game.isKeyPressed(Keys.Enter)) Wait(0);    }    if (exit) break;}

Model is a property of GTA objects (peds, vehicles, objects) so no... u can spawn an object with a specific model

but obviously it's in C++

 

So whatever I try, it doesn't really wants to work, but can we define buildings with this ?

Why don't turn of the car and player collisons off and fall into blue where there is no builder there ?

I'm making a TimeTravel mod, I want to remove the collision and buildings, if i am not in that timezone , so I don't really want to fall into the blue.

Well, if you do that, you will fall trough the ground..

TimeTravel mod already exists.. It is called Back To The Feature. But that is an old mod, so a new one would be awsome

Turn off collisions, get the current ground position, and make a tick event that teleports you to that ground position?

Model is a property of GTA objects (peds, vehicles, objects) so no... u can spawn an object with a specific model

 

But you can't do that with a building.. right ? Or am I completely wrong here ?

u tried the test code i made? did the test actually work? i never tested but was hoping u would be able to see some result in game testing different values

[stef538]

I did try, and it didn't work , I only got some lag for 1 second. so it might have done something but I don't know..

This also does not work, because the building collision is still there.

I did try, and it didn't work , I only got some lag for 1 second. so it might have done something but I don't know..

 

 

I'm making a TimeTravel mod, I want to remove the collision and buildings, if i am not in that timezone , so I don't really want to fall into the blue.

 

Turn off collisions, get the current ground position, and make a tick event that teleports you to that ground position?

 

 

This also does not work, because the building collision is still there.

 

It is, but player collision is off, so you would just go right through.
