#include <infotext>
// IF USING IN FILTERSCRIPT
public OnFilterScriptInit()
{
    OnShadowInit();
    return 1;
}

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    OnShadowInit();
    return 1;
} 


How to Use:

PHP код:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid) // Welcoming a player showing textdraw (using format and string)
{
    new string[150];
    new pName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, pName, sizeof(pName));
    format(string, sizeof(string), "~y~Welcome ~y~~h~~h~%s!~N~~y~ID: ~y~~h~~h~%d~w~~N~~y~", pName, playerid);
    ShadInfoBoxForPlayer(playerid, string);
    return 1;
}
public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid) // Spawning player with message that he's spawned (without format and string)

Note:

1. There's no change in the position of TextDraw. (REF: Original Include)
2. The TextDraw will automatically close after 15 seconds, you can change it by giving a value in the include:
   
   PHP код:

    #define CLOSETIMER 15000 // 1000 = 1 second 

3. If you don't want it to hide, find remove these from include:
   
   PHP код:

   #define CLOSETIMER 15000
SetTimerEx("CloseTextdraw", CLOSETIMER, false, "i", playerid);

In case it'll get called again?

I don't think you know how timers work correctly.

"true" means the timer will go on forever and every time the function is used another timer is set (useless) which is ruining everything up.

The same thing Smoke said, why is it set to true? It'll keep repeating the timer after the textdraw is hidden too.

EDIT: Looks like smoke posted earlier at the same time
