Vice City: Multiplayer

I'm not sure of I've missed it in the docs, but how do I get a sprite to cover the entire screen.

// works but does not cover the entire display
Logo <- GUISprite( "squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen( 100, 100 ) );


Logo <- GUISprite( "squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen( GUI.GetScreenSize().X, GUI.GetScreenSize().Y ) );

that dosn't work for me, is that how we do it ?

sX <- GUI.GetScreenSize().X;
sY <- GUI.GetScreenSize().Y; // Add on top.

Logo <- GUISprite( "squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen( 0, 0) );
Logo.Size = VectorScreen( sX, sY );


worked a charm, thanks

Because the second parameter is the position. And you set the position as the screen dimension then the sprite will be positioned after the lower right corner of the screen. Therefore, it doesn't appear on screen.

First you create it on position 0,0:

Logo <- GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
Then you set the total size of the sprite equal to the screen size:
Logo.Size = GUI.GetScreenSize();
If you want to scale the image as well:
Logo.TextureSize = GUI.GetScreenSize();

EDIT: Sorry, it seems a similar post was made while I was posting this.

I preffer S.L.C's version but dooms works perfect.

Anyhow, I am having trouble removing the GUISprite now. I'm getting
AN ERROR HAS OCCURED [trying to set 'class']

what am I doing wrong ?

You'll find some decent insight in this discussion (http://forum.vc-mp.org/?topic=2752.msg20532#msg20532). Basically, you have to prefix your global variables/functions with :: all the time.

When you create it:
::Logo <- GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
And when you use it:
::Logo = null;
Otherwise it's created as a member of the class in which it was executed. Take the following example:

function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
    Logo <- GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
}
Do you think that's created in the root table? Think again:

function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
    Logo <- GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
    print(getroottable().rawin("Logo")); // false
}
It's actually created as a member of the Script class.
function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
    Logo <- GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
    print(Script.rawin("Logo")); // true
}
Therefore you have to use:
Script.Logo = null
Whenever you wish to access that variable. Unless, you prefixed it with :: when you created it and every time you used it after that.

---

Ask @maxorator , he knows more about this. :P

I'd consider it poor convention to declare a global variable from inside a function anyway. You should be declaring your global variables at the top of the script and then referencing them.

Logo <- null;
function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
    Logo = GUISprite("squirrel_logo.jpg", VectorScreen(0, 0));
}

This works as expected and is unambiguous.

and what about textdraws?

what about searching a bit?

That topic has every function listed.

sry sir but i cant still .....can u plzz just give me the exact code if possible?

Spreading hands, calling members 'Sir' and saying 'plzz' won't give you anything.

where to add this thing sir

Create a file called main.nut
And put that file in yourserver/store/scripts
Then, put this inside that file:-
Memo <- GUIMemoBox( VectorScreen(1280,720), VectorScreen(10,10), Colour(0,1,0) );
//Check the syntax, it might not be correct.
Memo.AddLine( " My new FOcking textdraw!");
Memo.AddLine( "Another line bich");

will i have to make a dofile in my main.nut to run dofile( "Store/Scripts/main.nut" ); ?

First of all its not 'Store' its 'store', also its 'script' folder not 'Scripts. Now.... You won't need to add the dofile( "store/scripts/main.nut" ) in your main scripts.

You just add a main.nut in store/script/here and then do your client-side scripts in there

is that how we do it

kindly help im new at  this side

Pls Use Code Button

No that's not how you do it. You just copy pasted the documentation. If you had any sense of coding you would see the syntax is all wrong.

Copy what @KAKAN has posted and see what it does.

tell me if i am mistakened or if any new version available and plugins

Should be like this:
Logo <- null;
Memo <- null;

function Script::ScriptLoad() {
    Logo = GUISprite( "squirrel_logo.png", VectorScreen( 0, 0 ) );
    // Logo.Size = VectorScreen( Width, Height ) // You can resize the sprite
    Memo <- GUIMemobox( VectorScreen( 1221, 700 ), VectorScreen( 10, 10 ), Colour( 255, 255, 255, 255 ) );

Just remove that plugin from server.cfg file and you're good to go.

not working i also tested on blank gamemode script still not working did all the things same way u guyzz told

a video maybe helpfull if u provide

Quote from: MEGAMIND on Jul 22, 2016, 04:56 PMa video maybe helpfull if u provide

@Megamind, set the textdraw according to your resolution.

@MEGAMIND, What I see in the screenshots you provided, squirrel_logo.jpg

VCMP only loads images of format .png and not .jpg

ok thnx but plz if we proviede will be helpfull
=============================
know im really desup and giveup know i really need a video plzz

We're not implementing JPEG sprites. It's generally useless for games and a superfluous use of development time. Just convert your images.

will it work like in sebys video /exec s<-CreateSpritre...etc?

but when i remove it it still doesnot works???? know wheres the problem

new question when in store\script\main.nut
function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
print( "Testing..." );
}

why in console it not showing this print in console do we have to link our scripts together do we have to link our main.nut with store\script\main.nut?

OH THANKU SO MUCH I DONT KNOW HOW TO THANKU GUYZZZZ VCMP 0.4 ROCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS IT WORKED YEA....

sX <- GUI.GetScreenSize().X;
sY <- GUI.GetScreenSize().Y;

function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
Logo <- GUISprite( "Penguins.jpg", VectorScreen( 50, 50) );
Logo.Size = VectorScreen( sX, sY );
}

IT WORKED THANKS SPECIALLY TO @Doom_Kill3R

but  this is much better
Logo <- null;
function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
Logo <- GUISprite( "Penguins.ico", VectorScreen( 10, 200) );
} guess what it can work with any extension

i got them both working by this method sprite n textdraws
Memo <- null;
Logo <- null;
function Script::ScriptLoad()
{
  Memo <- GUIMemobox( VectorScreen( 1000, 500 ), VectorScreen( 100, 100 ), Colour( 255, 202, 202, 255 ) );
    Memo.AddLine( "hi testing" );
    Memo.AddLine( "Second line" );
Logo <- GUISprite( "Penguins.ico", VectorScreen( 10, 200) );
}

ok every thing is good but i dont need the box i onlu need text what should i do

Exactly

Go to: %appdata%\vcmp\04beta and open the debuglog.txt file, it should be there and not in your console. And also, make sure that you've named the folder script and not scripts
