Undocumented function? - SDraw - 15.09.2013
Well, it was really strange when I saw this
As I understood, this is nor an object, nor 3D-Text, nor special pickup model and nor textdraw. This is standart game text. Text is depended on game language, transparency is depended on distance.
So, what is hidding in it?

Are you sure is not 3D text with transperent color or object with material ? Can you send me server ip in private (server rules) to check it by myself ?

Never seen that before at all...

probably an object with setobjectmaterial(making it invisible) and setobjectmaterialtext(i dont remember what is it called).

Well, it's some kind of 3D text used in single player to denote the price of a property, but I have no idea how to replicate this in SA-MP. If it were an object, the rotation would be static and the text wouldn't always face the player. I reckon it'd take a lot of resources to update the object so it always faces the player.

What does it actually say? Cant tell if this is some real russian word, or just some rather senseless letters.

Here is a video

This isn't textdraw.
Using another app I can say (even I've said it already) this isn't an object
After kick it still works. So, any ideas?
Re: Undocumented function? - Mauzen - 15.09.2013
Movement and transparency change are kind of sloppy and delayed (and so server-controlled, 3dtexts are rendered by the client and so lag-free). Im sure that its a textdraw, position on screen gets calculated so it seems to be 3d, if a certain text is currently visible (once you projected the coordinates on the screen you can simply check if they are within the 640x480 screen area to check if a certain text is currently visible), its transparency gets set depending on the distance.
No magic and no hidden function
Only thing i didnt get is if the text really depends on the game language, or just on the server language.
