My SA-MP Map Construction editor doesn't show the spotlights. Also, the construction site with the purple building in Las Venturas, it doesn't show the crane, or the scaffolding.

So how would I remove these objects from the original map if it doesn't show them in the map editor? Also, there's some invisible walls, and I'm clueless how to get rid of them.

you can remove the lights of using CreateDynamicObject, I think.

that creates an object... there's RemoveObjectForPlayer, but I would need the object ID and the PRECISE location of it.

Each spotlight consists of three objects: 2887, 2888 and 2889. For the coordinates, I'm not sure, but they might be the same as used in the singleplayer mission Black Project. These are the lines for that mission in main.scm (Singleplayer mission script), which place the spotlights there:

You might be able to copy the coordinates, but I suggest just picking a coordinate in the middle of the base and setting the radius to something like 200.0.

I still remember something similar like this was one of the first questions i ever asked here in the forum. And what i learned was that the spotlights actually are no objects, but something from GTA itself, that cant be affected in any way by samp yet. You cant remove them as they got no actual object model id, and you cant add new ones.

[RXservers]

I would recommend you to check out program called MEd, with that program you can select in-game objects and see their current position and ID.

You could find these objects if you render right scene in MEd, and later remove them on your server through script.

Thanks Basssiiie I'll give it a go. Where did you get the Main.scm file from?

Edit: Doesn't work with the removebuilding function. I guess I'll just have to work around these objects.

the main.scm file is in some folder ( I think main ) and there will be main.scm

You'll have to cover those objects with something, maybe tall_fence?

[Xlithan]

I don't plan on editing that file, just wanted to know if I could remove the objects. I've replaced the guard towers back to where they were now anyway.

It's the same with that construction site in LV, with the purple building. I wanted to put the SANews building there but they have the crane and scaffolding that doesn't show in the map editor, so I can't remove them.

Include them in your map if you can't remove them! Be creative!

[Basssiiie]

The spot lights and the cranes are probably spawned by SA-MP itself, instead of by the game via the IPL lists. (As they can move, in Singleplayer, at least.)

Main.scm can be found in GTA San Andreas/data/script/, you can decompile it using something like Sanny Builder. Don't be afraid of the 500.000 lines of code that's in there.

[Promlesbian]

Hello,I was able to remove ALL of the SPOTBULBs,SPOTHOUSING,and SPOTBASE at Area 69.

I simply put them in my Filterscripts.

I hope this was helpful.

tested and it compiles and works.
