'VM_Execute'

this isn't f*cking call of duty

and it is an "SM" (Stack Machine) ... Edited October 26, 2014 by AdamSelene

[proditaki 40]

 

Here is a ton of scripts I wrote in C++. Nothing crazy but it works for the most part.

 

Vehicle Nitrous

VOID Nitrous(){    while (true) // for (;        if (!IS_PED_ON_FOOT(PLAYER_PED_ID()))            if (IS_PLAYER_PRESSING_HORN(PLAYER_ID()))                SET_VEHICLE_BOOST_ACTIVE(GET_VEHICLE_PED_IS_IN(PLAYER_PED_ID(), 0), TRUE);            else                SET_VEHICLE_BOOST_ACTIVE(GET_VEHICLE_PED_IS_IN(PLAYER_PED_ID(), 0), FALSE);        else            SET_VEHICLE_BOOST_ACTIVE(GET_VEHICLE_PED_IS_IN(PLAYER_PED_ID(), 0), FALSE);}

 

You also use apply_force_to_entity for vehicle nitrous .

 

or SET_VEHICLE_FORWARD_SPEED

And we don't even know if there will be a 64-bit version of the game on PC.

Well, that's not quite true. It might very well be that the PC version will be 64-bit exclusive, sadly.

The AMD graphics drivers contain profiles for gta5\Game_win64_final.exe, gta5\Game_win64_beta.exe, etc.

Hopefully they'll provide both 32-bit and 64-bit executables.

Old news , however I expect that there will be x64 binaries only

It's possible to hook a native ? How ?

It's possible to hook a native ? How ?

Look back to the last few pages, you'll be able to figure it out.

[fOmey 20]

Hey lads,

 

Hoping you guys can help me out.. I'm working on a little stripper function...

 

The plan is to create a ped and make them dance as a stripper, simple enough right ? Although I don't want them to react to guns being pointed at them or get scared...

 

I thought of the following:

• SET_BLOCKING_OF_NON_TEMPORARY_EVENTS
• SET_PED_CONFIG_FLAG ? Not sure what flags to set tho, would love any further information on this !!

 

 

Would appreciate any further information !

 

 

 

On another note, I was wondering if someone could supply some updated script dumps, I would love to find the animations for the tasks like the salute, hands clap etc. by pressing L3 + R3.

In IV, to disable those reactions you have to set their DecisionMaker (DM) to a DM that doesn't have reactions to those events. I usually use a blank DM. I don't mod V, but maybe it is similar.

Thanks for the reply, I will certainly see what I can dig up..

 

 

On another note, Does anyone know any info about teleporting to a waypoint set on map ?

 

I believe the function will consist of the following natives:

• GET_FIRST_BLIP_INFO_ID
• GET_BLIP_COORDS
• GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD

 

I cant figure out what the handle is for "GET_FIRST_BLIP_INFO_ID".. I tried to push string "BLIP_WAYPOINT", also tried the jenkins hash for "BLIP_WAYPOINT".. still no avail.. any further information would be apprecaited !

Use get_first_blip_info_id native with first arg set to 8 .

get_first_blip_info_id(8);

Then use get_blip_coords and set_entity_coords with load_all_objects_now .

Thank you very much for your help. Merry Christmas.

 

EDIT: Worked like a charm, cant thank you enough.. been scratching my head trying to figure this out.

 

EDIT 2: I cant figure out what the handles for "GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD" are. Supposedly it requires a X, Y, Z & variable.. although that makes no sense to me, If I'm attempting to discover the Z coordinates of a location what do I input ?

pre-conditions: collisions to be loaded at said position

 

usage: GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD(x, y, z, &outZ)

 

this will call CWorld::ProcessVerticalLine or equivalent (seeing how rage::fw* are used in V now) and return the first collision found casting a ray vertically down from (x, y, z)

 

also: don't use LOAD_ALL_OBJECTS_NOW, use LOAD_SCENE or REQUEST_COLLISION_AT_COORD and wait for the streamer to load the scene at runtime (especially important if networked, since various subsystems won't get serviced during a regular LOAD_SCENE - original scripts use an unknown native (formerly START_LOAD_SCENE) combined with NETWORK_UPDATE_LOAD_SCENE and call a bunch of servicing funcs in the middle, but you typically don't have access to the original script code)

What a great breakdown ! Thanks for taking the time to reply and explain in such detail.

 

Haven't had much luck at all sadly..

 

What I tried was:

• REQUEST_COLLISION_AT_COORD(blipCoords[0], blipCoord[1], 50f)
• Wait(1000)
• GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD(blipCoord[0], blipCoord[1], 50f, &var);

 

I also tried:

• NEW_LOAD_SCENE_START(blipCoord[0], blipCoord[1], 50f)
• While (IS_NEW_LOAD_SCENE_LOADED == 0) { Wait(10) }
• GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD(blipCoord[0], blipCoord[1], 50f, &var);

 

Sadly returns 0 everytime..

 

 

EDIT: While re-reading your post I realized you recommended to use "LOAD_SCENE".

 

I tried the following:

• LOAD_SCENE(blipCoord[0], blipCoord[1], 150f)
• GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD(blipCoord[0], blipCoord[1], 150f, &var);

 

It returns a float majority of the time, I thought it may be due to the varying levels.. although all the waypoints I set were < 150f Z... So it semi works !! Some progress !

 

 

EDIT 2: A little work around, not sure if its intended to be done this way... although if I "SET_ENTITY_COORDS" to the waypoint coordinates and then detect the Z coordinates it seems to work everytime.

 

I then "SET_ENTITY_COORDS" again to readjust once the Z coordinates are found seems to do the trick.

Hmm... I know this method (used in C++ and SCO):

void TeleportToWaypoint(){    Blip wpBlip = UI::GET_FIRST_BLIP_INFO_ID(8); // 8 = BLIP_WAYPOINT    if(UI::IS_WAYPOINT_ACTIVE())    {	Vector3 wpVec;        wpVec = UI::GET_BLIP_COORDS(wpBlip);	ENTITY::SET_ENTITY_COORDS(PLAYER::PLAYER_PED_ID(), wpVec.X, wpVec.Y, wpVec.Z, 1, 1, 1, 1); // 1, 1, 1, 1 ?	for (;wpVec.Z == 0.0f;)	{		GAMEPLAY::GET_GROUND_Z_FOR_3D_COORD(wpVec.X, wpVec.Y, 1000.0f, &wpVec.Z);		SYSTEM::WAIT(0);	}	//STREAMING::LOAD_SCENE(wpVec.X, wpVec.Y, wpVec.Z); // not necessary?!

Hey guys, I'm back to pick your brains for some info !

 

Currently working on attaching a object to the roof of a vehicle..

 

Due to the varying sizes of vehicles, I'm trying to figure out a full proof way of calculating the height of a vehicle:

 

 

I'm thinking one of the following:

• GET_ENTITY_HEIGHT
• GET_ENTITY_HEIGHT_ABOVE_GROUND

 

I believe when using the ATTACH_ENTITY_TO_ENTITY native, The entity being attached is attached to the center by default if not told otherwise.

 

 

Open to suggestions and thoughts.

[XeClutch 33]

To anyone using the script engine hook and is having trouble printing text you now need to print the text from inside of the hook.

 

In other news, here is a little something something I wrote up to show you who is talking. I never really liked how in GTA somebody could be talking and you have no idea who it is.

 

void PrintChat() // call this from inside of the hook{    float pos = 0.07f;    for (int i = 0; i < 16; i++)        if (i != PLAYER_ID())            if (NETWORK_IS_PLAYER_TALKING(i))                if (!NETWORK_IS_PLAYER_MUTED_BY_ME(i))                    SET_TEXT(GET_PLAYER_NAME(i), 0.07f, (pos -= 0.05)); // replace with your function for printing text}

Nice job Alex. Looking forward to seeing the dev community open doors to expanding GTA 5 and unleasing potential with these new natives. I feel like I'm in 2009 again when I first purchased GTA IV. It was during that era I taught myself c++ and wrote a sub menu that quickly excelled the time to write a new native. Also met some pretty amazing people during that time. Thanks so much.

 

For the sake of an argument I have always preferred c++ over .NET.

Too bad the PC release was delayed.

 

I'm looking for a way to get the angle on the axis of what your ped is aiming at.

Does anybody know how to get that?

 

Below it's illustrated.. i would want to calculate a point on the BLUE line.

(and want the red angle)

Could someone here supply me with a link or the tool that is used to decompile the SCO scripts. I had it before, but I lost it. I've been away from the GTA community for a long time, but I'm interested in contributing to help out with the research when I find the time. Coding is my life regardless. It is great to see familiar names on here again, such as Nixo, etc. Has anybody heard from SneakyJanit0r in awhile?

You can decompile modified sco scripts in Low-Level code only, but IV sco's on hl or ll. Use OpenIV for this.

Scocl has tool in bin folder that decompililng modified scripts in LowLevel code.

The .net hook didn't call game natives directly (even though you could call them directly) and had many things preconfigured. Yes that is indeed easier to use but makes customization harder to achieve.

 

The scripthook came with a development loader in which any asi/dll that was loaded could be unloaded and reloaded. Including the .net scripthook by the way. Which is another downside I mentioned before, it is another layer.

 

 

Though I have never programmed in .NET (I'm fluent mainly in only C and C++), I personally noticed large performance hits when using others' .NET modifications.

 

As sjaak mentioned, easier isn't always better. For general programming, Java is considered a useful language to be familiar in since it can be compiled once and the same code can run on any system that has the Java Virtual Machine - be it Windows, Linux, Mac, or otherwise (unlike C and C++ that must usually be re-compiled for different systems). However, for certain high-demanding applications, Java programs may suffer from performance issues due to to the additional JVM layer that must "translate" the compiled Java code on-the-fly.

Hi,

yeah, it's long time ago but I remember your YT clip

IMO the best tool to decompile the SCO scripts is (as solom already said) OpenIV.

I'm sure you don't need a TUT how to use SCOCL... anyway, maybe it's useful: Click here

 

Here is a ASI SCO Loader (C++).

Too bad the PC release was delayed.

 

I'm looking for a way to get the angle on the axis of what your ped is aiming at.

Does anybody know how to get that?

 

Below it's illustrated.. i would want to calculate a point on the BLUE line.

(and want the red angle)

 

 

Never mind i got it GET_GAMEPLAY_CAM_RELATIVE_PITCH

Will be going through all the pages in this topic before I start asking questions, but seriously gang, GREAT FREAKING WORK!

 

Love it, will be having fun researching all this!

 

(smacks head)

 

AFTER I finish filming. AFTER.

 

EDIT: Ok, just one:

 

AI::TASK_PLAY_ANIM(PLAYER::PLAYER_PED_ID(), "rcmpaparazzo_2", "idle_d", 1000f, -1000f, -1, 1, 0.4f, 0, 0, 0);

 

1 = Actor ID

2 = AnimIMG (ifp?)

3 = Animation Name

4 = Float

5 = Float

6 = Flag (loop?)

7 = Flag (hold last animation frame?)

8 = Float (playback rate?)

9 = Flag (X lock?)

10 = Flag (Y lock?)

11 = Flag (Z lock?)

 

Chastise me if you must, no way to test ATM (lost all of my IVStudios source code). Just one I noticed.

 

EDIT2:

IS_AN_ENTITYIS_ENTITY_A_PEDIS_ENTITY_A_MISSION_ENTITY

Is ENTITY a fancy name for an actor/car/object handle?

Yea, entity is just a handle in V.

 

EDIT: Also, w/ TASK_PLAY_ANIM:

Also, anything new in the world of V scripts, Alexander?
