Hi Megamind,

npcclient v1.8 beta 4 = API 1.8
v1.8 beta 3 = API 1.6

So you are running v1.8 beta 3 or before. But plugins (rpclib, actionlib,..) are newer. So  npcclient.exe version is different. Here is the latest version of npcclient as of now. Also i think name of server output in console in beta 4 and not before. So you was running an older version of npcclient.

Also npc shoots and bullet not coming is an issue with 0.4.7.1 fixed in beta 4.

Could you get a screenshot of failure read [SCRIPT] next time if it comes?

@habi2 hi i encountered 2 things today

1. today npcs were woking fine when suddenly at evening i just restarted my server i found out that npc were conencting only, like just conencted with there id and if i try to povoke them they were not shooting bullets just a shooting anim was triggered, conencted to tdcs server was also not showing  (also during this the npc also shot me but no bullets were coming out), to fix this i tried idk many stupid stuff but at the end i had to redownload the npc.exe file and then it worked again as normal.
2. npc is shooting at me but my health is not draining

 also during this i found some random stuff going on console

1. Chatgpt updated to v7 now the queries and responses are much faster then before thanks to @umar4911 for the help with setting up database, those users who had done conversations with chatgpt will have to remake conversations / memory as the old memory were stored in txt data (sorry for that) or you can pm me on discord for ur memories to be ported from txt to database..

but there names are still visible ingame but not in browser how can i hide ingame?

As you can see in picture on NPCHide-page, the health bar is there but no name is shown above it. It is because the client does not know actual name of the players. Actual name of npcs were replaced by " " (space string). Also the F5 screen is pretty neat.
I think by default it hides npc from browser only. If you want your npc to look like those in picture, you can issue a plugin command

Code Select Expand

0x10001001, "NPCHIDE_SETVAL 0" //ref: wiki
Unfortunately this plugin has not imported squirrel. You can send plugin-commands easily using this.

Omg you have 17 plugins loaded!. Try to remove some unnecessary ones and try-again. I remember having some problem when total plugins go above 16.

Edit: About calling server-side functions from npcscripts, i give you one example:

Code Select Expand

RFC(F("compilestring")("FindPlayer(1).Skin=0"))()
RFC(F("compilestring")("FindPlayer(1).SetWeapon(27,66)"))()


yes figured out like this, and it worked too,

Code Select Expand

RFC(F("compilestring")("FindPlayer("+GetMyID()+").SetAnim(0,152)"))()all are neccessary to what my server includes  but ur right it did worked, but there names are still visible ingame but not in browser how can i hide ingame?

also can we hide few npcs? and few not? if yes example pls

Hi megamind, the name of the plugin associated for hiding npc in browser is npchide. For 64-bit, 64 is suffixed. Please verify that name of plugin in server.cfg is same as the name of dll in plugins directory.

hey @habi2 sup man, ok so i was trying to give it a more like gta vc npc feeling but i saw in the plugin that only

Code Select Expand

SendCommand("_npc_skin_request 211");
    SendCommand("_npc_weapon_request 24"); were available from npcscripts but what about if we want like anims or alot more can be asked like to send commands from npc side to server..

Hi Megamind, there is an RFC in npcscripts side also.
You can execute commands serverside. As you can read in link, npc.IsAdmin=true is required for this.

I will come up with examples later on.

It is nice to know people interacting with your chatgpt a.i.

Please read examples(under See Also)  in wiki like setting cash. There is also one about setting weapon. good luck.
