I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

My previous thread some one said to use a filterscript, I dont like using filterscripts and I WILL NOT use them on my gamemode, But so far

pawn Code:

new Text:WelcomeText;

OnGameModeInit

pawn Code:

WelcomeText = TextDrawCreate(246 ,456 , "[SDK]FreeRoam scripted by [SDK]Azzeto");

OnPlayerconnect

pawn Code:

TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,Text:WelcomeText);

Iv tried many many things! Can NOT get them to work and its getting irritating.

Show me the textdraw properties...

Try to place this in OnPlayerSpawn

pawn Code:

TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,Text:WelcomeText);

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

@Wesley, doesn't work, and @Tiger, all I have for textdraws is whats posted

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Tigerbeast11 - 24.08.2011

Well, try adding some properties like these:

pawn Code:

TextDrawAlignment(Timer,2);
    TextDrawBackgroundColor(Timer,0x000000ff);
    TextDrawFont(Timer,3);
    TextDrawLetterSize(Timer,0.499999,2.000000);
    TextDrawColor(Timer,0xffffffff);
    TextDrawSetOutline(Timer,1);
    TextDrawSetProportional(Timer,1);
    TextDrawSetShadow(Timer,1);

DO NOT COPY & PASTE.

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

Is there anyway you could explain what that is, and what they do? I'v never created a textdraw before

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Tigerbeast11 - 24.08.2011

They are kind of self explanatory:

pawn Code:

TextDrawAlignment(Timer,2); //Type of alignment
    TextDrawBackgroundColor(Timer,0x000000ff); //BAckground colour
    TextDrawFont(Timer,3); //Letter style
    TextDrawLetterSize(Timer,0.499999,2.000000); //Sizes
    TextDrawColor(Timer,0xffffffff); //Colour
    TextDrawSetOutline(Timer,1); //Outline, yes or no?
    TextDrawSetProportional(Timer,1); //Proportional, yes or no?
    TextDrawSetShadow(Timer,1); //Shadow, yes or no?

Use the textdraw editor they sended you in your previous topic. Then just copy & paste the things it made in the filterscript to your gamemode. No need to use it in a filterscript

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Gazmull - 24.08.2011

It lacks font, size, color, etc. so you make textdraw confusing :S.

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

Here are my properties now

pawn Code:

TextDrawFont(WelcomeText , 1);
TextDrawLetterSize(WelcomeText , 0.6, 4.2);
TextDrawColor(WelcomeText , 0x0066ffFF);
TextDrawSetOutline(WelcomeText , false);
TextDrawSetProportional(WelcomeText , true);
TextDrawSetShadow(WelcomeText , 3);

Got them using http://bsndesign.webs.com/tde.htm
and I posted them under create textdraw on the ongamemodeinit and put showtextdrawforplayer under onplayerconnect, did /rcon gmx and the server restarted but I still do not see the textdraw.

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Tigerbeast11 - 24.08.2011

https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/TextDrawCreate Read this and the links underneath it about textdraws.

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

I'v read that, I'v done everything and its not showing. I even have the properties for the textdraw set.

That webtool isn't accurate. Try the textdraweditor FS?

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Toreno - 24.08.2011

pawn Code:

TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, WelcomeText);

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

@toreno, id put that under onplayerconnect, right? Or onplayerspawn?

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Tigerbeast11 - 24.08.2011

try OnPlayerSpawn

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Toreno - 24.08.2011

pawn Code:

new Text:WelcomeText;

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    WelcomeText = TextDrawCreate(246 ,456 , "[SDK]FreeRoam scripted by [SDK]Azzeto");
    return 1;
}

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
    TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, WelcomeText);
    return 1;
}

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

Didnt work toreno -.-' Ill just use the filterscript, anyone know where the stat things save

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Toreno - 24.08.2011

That should work perfectly, this must be your textdraw coordinates.
Maybe try using these two coordinates, otherwise... I can't see what's wrong.

pawn Code:

WelcomeText = TextDrawCreate(240.0, 580.0, "[SDK]FreeRoam scripted by [SDK]Azzeto");

Re: I can not get these textdraws workin! - Azzeto - 24.08.2011

@toreno that didnt work either
