Scripting Tutorial 5 - Text displays

[vicecity55]

for some reason i cant view the video

[.:SDK:.]

On the news page, they said you needed some filters and codecs

On a side note: we've noticed that some of you had problems with viewing some of our videos. These issues could be resolved by installing the latest ffdshow filters and XviD codec. It is likely that you will need ffdshow filters for the latest video as well.

Scripting tutorials are no more? During the past 3 weeks there was only 1 tutorial.

Most of the beta testers had some problems/stuff to do in real life during the last week so we couldn't prepare a tutorial. A new tutorial will be posted any time soon.

Hi there, the links to the Tutorial 5 scripts need a space removed from the URL:

e.g.

http://www.multitheftauto.com/scripts/%20script5a.lua
http://www.multitheftauto.com/scripts/%20script5b.lua

Took me a minute to realise why I couldn't download them

Thanks for the heads up I fixed the links to the script.


The video is acting up because your computer is setup in a way thats not good for handling MP4. Most likely due to quicktime, which is a whore. This is due to some doorknob thinking it was a good idea to put quality over the ability for everyone to play the video.

In light of these complaints as I expected, I have recompressed the video into wmv format. You should have no problems viewing it now. It will be up very soon.

Well, this looks awesome, but can you use in-games sound, like double kill and such?

[Ar[o]N]

Yes it can be used, as MTA Team has made resources which there will be download a player. (it is possible also music)

Says who?

edit: For clarification, resources provide the infrastructure to allow custom images, models and sounds. They still have to be implemented into MTA. So far only models have been worked on, so we can't guarantee sounds until it is announced

[Ar[o]N]

Not who I so think.

[Ar[o]N]

i understood. In the future it will be realized?

Well, okay. I just thought it could be cool with GODLIKE on textscreen and the voice sound came up, anyways, it doesn't matter. But great job keep it up, friends!

Has anyone gotten this to work? I can't seem to get it to work. I keep getting errors on the event Handler lines.

Are scripta and scriptb independant scripts or are they supposed to be one? I havent tested these, but just wanted to know before I go and do that! Thanks
