C# error with GTA.GraphicsEventArgs and KeyPressDelegate

[TehStranger?]

Hey guys, new here

I am working on a basic script just out of pure boredom but I ran into a problem, I am trying to get Graphics.DrawText to display the FPS but it causes an error with my BindKey code that toggles it on and off, here is the code:

BindKey(Keys.F7, new KeyPressDelegate(showFPS));

}

public void showFPS(object sender, GTA.GraphicsEventArgs args)

{

string fps = Game.FPS.ToString();

args.Graphics.DrawText(fps, 0.9f, 0.1f);

}

it gives the error "No overload for 'showFPS' matches delegate 'GTA.KeyPressDelegate'"

Any help would be much appreciated, cheers.

1: When the BindKey takes a function, the function should have no parameters (like this: public void showFPS() )

2: If you want to draw something, you have to use a PerFrameDrawing.

    		BindKey(Keys.F7, new KeyPressDelegate(showFPS));    		PerFrameDrawing += tehDrawingMaster;        }  		bool drawFPS = false;        public void showFPS()        {        	drawFPS = !drawFPS;        }        public void tehDrawingMaster(object sender, GTA.GraphicsEventArgs e)        {        	if (drawFPS) e.Graphics.DrawText(Game.FPS.ToString(), 20, 20, System.Drawing.Color.Black)        } 

Oh, and, welcome!

Worked great, thanks so much! I was wondering though, is there anyway to slow it down? I mean like is there a way to draw it every X amount of frames? because it moves too fast

 

Thanks again bro!

How about this?

		GTA.Timer timer;		{				timer = new GTA.Timer(500, false);			timer.Tick += timer_Tick;			timer.Start();			BindKey(Keys.F7, new KeyPressDelegate(showFPS));    		PerFrameDrawing += tehDrawingMaster;        }  		bool drawFPS = false; 		float fps = 0;        public void showFPS()        {        	drawFPS = !drawFPS;        }        public void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)        {        	fps = Game.FPS;        }        public void tehDrawingMaster(object sender, GTA.GraphicsEventArgs e)        {        	if (drawFPS) e.Graphics.DrawText(fps.ToString(), 20, 20, System.Drawing.Color.Black);        } 

[TehStranger?]

not working

[Jitnaught]

not working

What happens?

[TehStranger?]

nothing at all. visual studios isnt showing any errors and I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work :S

[Jitnaught]

Post your code

[TehStranger?]

Post your code

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Threading.Tasks;

using GTA;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace ClassLibrary2

{

public class Class1 : Script

{

public Class1()

{

GTA.Timer timer;

timer = new GTA.Timer(500, false);

timer.Tick += timer_Tick;

timer.Start();

BindKey(Keys.F7, new KeyPressDelegate(showFPS));

PerFrameDrawing += tehDrawingMaster;

}

bool drawFPS = false;

float fps = 0;

public void showFPS()

{

drawFPS = !drawFPS;

}

public void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

fps = Game.FPS;

}

public void tehDrawingMaster(object sender, GraphicsEventArgs e)

{

if (drawFPS) e.Graphics.DrawText(fps.ToString(), 20, 20, System.Drawing.Color.White);

}

}

}

its all just the code you posted. am I missing something?

Try moving the GTA.Timer timer; in

public class Class1 : Script    {        public Class1()        {            GTA.Timer timer;

to

public class Class1 : Script    {        GTA.Timer timer;        public Class1()        {            

but keep the rest of the timer stuff in the public Class1() method.

still didn't work

I know the problem, f (drawFPS) e.Graphics.DrawText(fps.ToString(), 20, 20, System.Drawing.Color.White); is using the 'float fps = 0;' not the one in timer_tick.

[Jitnaught]

The 'one in timer_Tick' is float fps = 0;.

float fps = 0; is declaring and setting the initial value, and fps = Game.FPS; is just setting the value, not declaring another variable.

If the problem was the variable (or the timer), then the number 0 would be drawn in the top-left corner of the screen after you press F7.

You said nothing happens, so I'm guessing that means that nothing is being drawn, which means that PerFrameDrawing isn't running

Yeah you're right, my apologies, I don't know why but it just decided to work now lol

 

Thanks for everything bro, you're the best!!!
