Did you tell it to move anywhere?

Anybody having the issue of the bot spawning in the sky, use AddStaticVehicleEx() with the same parameters as CreateVehicle. There's no need to set the spawn location of the bot. This will fix it.

It didn't fix it for me and nothing can fix it it seems. It can't be a script problem because it was always working without any problems, then 0.3x came and it stopped working all of a sudden, nothing at all was changed in the scripts. The bots simply don't get put into their vehicles and the vehicles remain on their spawn coordinate. Tried a lot of things, tried what you advised, tried using both normal and PVars to store the vehicle ID in which they should be put, tried changing the seat, tried using the timer to delay their placement in the created vehicles, nothing...

Please check your default SA-MP package and just see filterscripts folder, it has npc_record.pwn and .amx file.

  if(IsPlayerNPC(playerid)) //Checks if the player that just spawned is an NPC.
  {
    new npcname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, npcname, sizeof(npcname)); //Getting the NPC's name.
    if(!strcmp(npcname, "MyFirstNPC", true)) //Checking if the NPC's name is MyFirstNPC
    {
      PutPlayerInVehicle(playerid, MyFirstNPCVehicle, 0); //Putting the NPC into the vehicle we created for it.

This occurs when a recording file is missing. Make sure if your using the default NPC system, it has a compiled NPC script(.amx) inside the npcmodes folder, and a proper recording file inside the recordings folder(npcmodes/recordings). The recording file should be a .rec file.

Is that really your picture Abagail ?

Re: Creating a new NPC - Salvator_Salieri - 26.11.2014

Did anyone try this in samp 0.3z? I ask this cuz either the creator of the tutorial or the guy who made a tutorial vid of this on ******* wrote that this works in 0.3x but he's not sure that it worx in 0.3z SO i need infos on whether it works in 0.3z or not cuz i tried it once in 0.3z and i got everything in place and all needed scripts compiled without errors (might aswell call this 1/3rd success) and the npc enters the server and "doesnt leave" (2/3rd success) but I DONT SEE IT GOING ON THE ROUTE I RECORDED! (no success :S )

Re: Creating a new NPC - Arastair - 27.11.2014

I read a part of it and i have a question

What if a normal player wanted to add an NPC (Paid for it or whatever) we should give him the recon password?

No, not if you want your server to be messed with, only you should know the RCON password plus only you can add them into the script anyway.
