  [Poll] What's Next?

  @Great-Britain A poll is a vehicle to capture and assess opinions. I gave mine, without any filters, and it was definitely not directed at you, nor to be taken personally. I apologize if you were offended.

  Ironically it's the kids who are the audience for Menyoo maps and these are a great creative outlet for them.

  I'm not a map creator, I know my limits, but I am a consumer. I’ve never seen a Menyoo map worth installing.

  My benchmark, my standards are very different, not necessarily better, just different.

  A great map, in my opinion, is Liberty City ported to GTA5. Obviously done by professionals. On the community side, most of the great maps and MLOs are also ports from other games. FiveM has some amazing MLOs but not for free.

  For myself, those maps above represent the high standards that will never be met by Menyoo maps.

  Similarly, the lore unfriendly, no facial animations, poorly rigged, low polygon, badly textured ped models that litter all mod sites don't make the cut either.

  The wonderful news for Menyoo creators is that thousands of kids will download Menyoo maps. So I'm just a minority voice.

  @JohnFromGWN said in Would: A Complete ScriptHookVDotNet Mod Menu Guide be something of interrest?:

  @KimonoBoy I'll share an example with you.

  One of the first things I wanted to do when I started playing GTA 5 and modding was the ability to switch between the player and another ped.

  I searched everywhere. Nada, nothing.

  I posted here and other forums. Nope, not even a nibble.

  Finally I figured it out on my own and honestly I'm shocked nobody could help, or nobody wanted to help, with something so simple.

  My code lacks elegance, once more I'm not a programmer, but it works.

  if (e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad0) //SWITCH FROM PLAYER TO PED AND BACK { if (Game.Player.Character == Player1) { Function.Call(Hash.CHANGE_PLAYER_PED, Game.Player, CurrentPed, true, true); // Player 1 is declared above PedGroup PlayerGroup = Game.Player.Character.PedGroup; //make them buddies Function.Call(Hash.SET_PED_AS_GROUP_MEMBER, Player1, PlayerGroup); } else if (Game.Player.Character == CurrentPed) { Function.Call(Hash.CHANGE_PLAYER_PED, Game.Player, Player1, true, true); PedGroup PlayerGroup = Game.Player.Character.PedGroup; //make them buddies Function.Call(Hash.SET_PED_AS_GROUP_MEMBER, CurrentPed, PlayerGroup); } }

  If it works, it works, and for this script, I don't really see how this should be written any better? Yeah, maybe a method containing it's logic to remove duplicate code, but the code is simple and readable.

  [Help] how to Move a vector 3 by pressing a key

  Here is a quick script, I just called it Gravity-Gun, for grabbing entities and move their position back and forth using the ForwardVector - aim at an entity, press J, use Numpad 8 and Numpad 2 to move entity further away or closer to you, use the mouse to drag entity around:

  private static bool _isHoldingEntity; private static Entity _targetEntity; private static float _gravityGunDistanceToTarget = 15.0f; private static bool InfiniteAmmo { get; set; } public WeaponService() { Tick += OnTick; KeyDown += OnKeyDown; } private void OnKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { if (e.KeyCode == Keys.J) { _targetEntity = Game.Player.TargetedEntity; _isHoldingEntity = !_isHoldingEntity; if (_targetEntity is Ped ped) if (ped.IsInVehicle()) _targetEntity = ped.CurrentVehicle; } if (_isHoldingEntity && e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad8) _gravityGunDistanceToTarget += 1.0f; if (_isHoldingEntity && e.KeyCode == Keys.NumPad2) if (_gravityGunDistanceToTarget > 5.0f) _gravityGunDistanceToTarget -= 1.0f; } private void OnTick(object sender, EventArgs e) { GravityGun(_gravityGunDistanceToTarget); } private void GravityGun(float distance) { if (!_isHoldingEntity || _targetEntity == null) return; var camPos = GameplayCamera.Position + GameplayCamera.ForwardVector * distance; camPos.Z += (float)Math.Sin(Game.Player.Character.RotationVelocity.Z - 2.0f); _targetEntity.Position = camPos; }

  Edit: You can move the key presses to the Tick for a more fluid experience.

  @iammistahwolf sorry. I should have written CodeWalker's RPF Explorer, which I run as the standalone and is now linked on this site.

  Ydd files contain ydr files. These are the drawables such as hair, uppers, lowers, etc.

  OpenIV allows you to export these files in what it calls the openformats, one word.

  So odd is like ydd, and odr is like ydr.

  So a ydd, or data dictionary, is a collection of hairs, heads, accessories, feet, etc.

  Once exported, assuming the models are compatible, you can add components to one model from another.

  There are 'wind controls' in Menyoo and Enhanced Native Trainer mods. Go into either to find 'world' or 'weather' to get to the menus that will allow that.

  @JohnFromGWN Thanks again dawg i'll re-check those tabs to see what else I can delete. I think I got all the temp file locations but always pays to re-check.

  Would be dope if someone made an OS like Windows fully compatible but without all the bs. Just bare bones, light weight and maximum efficiency / user friendly.

  Correct me if wrong, crazy how each new release of Windows seems to be roughly +10 gb bigger in size. Shows how much extra crap MS cram in there we don't need or want.

  @Herrahaamu unfortunately it's much more complicated than that. Just gave you a very simple example of references and code.

  @BMHater12
  the dlcpack for the Add-On itself has to contain a dlctext.meta file (it's empty) and reference for it in content.xml

  vehicles.meta holds the code name on the brand/make and name entry

  global.gxt2 in the lang folder in the dlc.rpf holds the actual names (you can extract it via the extract to META/XML option in OpenIV iirc to global.oxt that can be edited in Notepad etc)

  so, vehicles.meta
  CHEVY
  BELAIR

  in global.gxt2
  CHEVY = Chevrolet
  BELAIR = 1958 BelAir
