I know someone would say this.

Kalcor said custom skins work with SetPlayerSkin(); I tried that OnPlayerRequestClass(); But it only displays one skin throughout and I heard it does not work with AddPlayerClass(); So I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if it is not possible at all.

Not sure. You can try a workaround though:

Use a function that sets a camera at your desired location, spawn the player or an actor there and set them to the custom skin you want.

Thanks for RC4 Kalcor!

There was a difference in the speed of downloads with redirection.

I noticed that there is a difference: When you leave to download the templates by the server, the download is done one by one, while using the redirect it looks like it is multiples (looks like 5 at the same time).

Downloading a few skins (109 files) by the server took about 2 minutes.
Already downloading using the redirect, it lasted about 30 seconds.

I noticed this when I compiled my test scripts and an error occurred when I started my server.

A brief video showing the difference in speed: https://youtu.be/2SygC1Pl0bY
109 files ~ 9 mb

The time to be more precise was a difference of 59 seconds.
It took about 80 seconds to download through the server. Using the redirect took 21 seconds.


This for a large number of models, will be much better.

Thanks, I'll try some methods myself and give you the outcome.

But really and truly this just be a thing to add them to class selection without any work arounds

Wow, This is amazing, Thanks for the heads up. Download speeds are really faster indeed.

Next step: Bundle everything in one super-duper compressed archive and send it whole to the client.

Best man!

Redirecting is indeed much faster. I went from up to 150kB/s to over 2500kB/s.

Correct. It flunctuates a little as well but that's on our / the webserver's end.

Downloading Vice City now takes one minute and 30 seconds on my machine, rather than four minutes and a bit more.

What a great update.

[DavidGravelli]

Its look like the offical version will be released after a few days!
btw good job kalcor!

[Skream]

If you guys have a problem to compile the script make sure you didn't copy the streamer.inc from 2012 that Kalcor put in .inc files

[Killa[DGZ]]

I must say.. not bitchin or anything though, but not being unable to create any pickups away from the original map is a bit of a pain in the ass Kalcor, streamed pickups don't seem to work out there anywhere either mate, Is that a game engine limitation?, or maybe fixable somehow?

Anyway this is an amazing update, I absolutely love where it's heading, I love all the new natives and the sense of endless development, expansion and lease of life that this all brings to this mod.

Thank you very much!

If the download redirection fails (for some web server error) will some error be returned in the server script?

The functions are not yet registered in the wiki, for this my doubt.

[RogerCosta]

Somebody else have problem with streamer (v2.9.1/2.9.2)?
In RC3 works fine. I only update sa-mp server and client (RC4-1), recompile my FS, run server, all models are loaded correctely in prompt, i connect in server, and screen freeze in "Connected to server MY_SERVER_NAME".

I using bare gamemode, but the problem is solved if i removed streamer.

[wahitfitriyanto]

Yea, it's a game limitation. It can be hacked, but I don't know how complicated that is exactly. I suppose it is not that easy, since the IPL Limit is the same and probably is connected to it (and it is kinda hard to hack that one).

Either way, I would love to see that working as well though.
