How to get specific vehicle id?

[striker666dk]

Hey i'm new at modding, and i'm trying to get a vehicle id. But it's a vehicle that the player has never used.

Any ideas?

[Colarocker]

looked around a little bit but didn't find a function for it..

only thing u can do is to spawn a vehicle and assign an id to it ( i think )

 

if you want to research more also try older gta IV scripts and stuff, because you can find

a lot of parallels to gta V..

the native db gets lots of updates, maybe there will be a fitting function in the future

 

another approach would be to use the entity functions but i didnt find one for entitys near

the player :x if there would be one you could scan for entitys around player

till IS_ENTITY_A_VEHICLE is true

 

next approach would be objects because there are functions like OBJECTS::GET_CLOSEST_OBJECT_OF_TYPE

but im not sure if you can handle a vehicle as an object

there is also no documentation yet for this one but you can look up the gamescripts

if you find any connection to vehicles

 

(as i'm writing this i find it more and more appealing to look more inside the object calls they seem pretty

promising, stuff like OBJECT::IS_OBJECT_NEAR_POINT )

 

hope it helped, if i get the time i think im gonna test around with it too hope you gonna give

an update if you found something working

or just try

VEHICLE::GET_CLOSEST_VEHICLE

(float x, float y, float z, float radius, Hash modelHash, int flags)

just use playercords for xyz, radius like you want it, modelHash = 0 for all models and the last flag is something like 70,

but i never tried it myself will test it later ^^

Thank you so much Colarocker, i'll try it as soon as possible. And if i find something i'll post it here

(at first get the playerPOS with

Ped PlayerID = PLAYER::PLAYER_PED_ID();

Vector3 playerPOS = ENTITY::GET_ENTITY_COORDS(PlayerID, true); )

after it use:

 

Vehicle closestV;

closestV = VEHICLE::GET_CLOSEST_VEHICLE(playerPOS.x, playerPOS.y, playerPOS.z, 20, 0, 70);
VEHICLE::START_VEHICLE_ALARM(closestV);

 

this one definetly worked for me! (just had to find a car with an alarm lol)

 

have fun =)
