SA/VC Mission Coding Troubleshooting

[вαℓυ]

I went through Neo's first tutorial and messed with the script and now I pretty much know the very basic stuff but I've got a few questions I'd like to ask since it's still a bit confusing to me.

1. How do I create just one ped at a destination without any weapons? In Neo's tutorial it's explained how to spawn a ped inside a car and I ran through the opcodes dozens of times but couldn't find anything.

2. What are these label and jump thingies and if I want to make a longer script, how do I know which label comes after? The last label is :Label008743.

3. This question is related to the first question. Actually, this isn't a question but I just want find out if it's the spawn ped opcode which is crashing my game because I think that's the problem but could you please take a look and see if there are any other errors?

Thanks a lot!

try this

009A:  28?? = create_actor  4? #BKB at  390.50!  -500.93!  9.39!

First off you might wanna check this thread http://www.gtastunting.net/forums/index.php?topic=22733.0 if your talking about MY tutorial on coding. It explains things in more detail.

Swooth is right as to your first question.

Labels are the way the code tells the game what it's gonna do and in what order. Hence why most labels increase in their number, like :Label008706 than when the code is done within that label it goes 0002: jump ££Label008711. The "jump" label tells the code to go to the next label which is :Label008711 than carry out the code you write in that label.

Label numbers can be any number really as long as the next on is higher. If the number is not higher the code will "jump" back and repeat a previous set of commands again.

Yes that opcode is what is causing your crash. Use opcode 009A:  28?? = create_actor  4? #BKB at  390.50!  -500.93!  9.39!

It also looks like your jump_if_false command in the first thread is jumping to the wrong thread. It should jump back to the initial thread.

You have: 004D: jump_if_false ££Label008706

but it should be jumping to Label008700. You should be able to streamline that whole thread too. You could knock it down to this:

Code: [Select]

:Label008700
0001: wait  1000& ms
0247: request_model #BKB
038B: load_requested_models

:Label008900
00D6: if  0?
8248:   NOT   model #BKB available
004D: jump_if_false ££Label008700
009A:  28?? = create_actor  4? #BKB at  X!  Y!  Z!
004E: end_thread

Keep in mind that labels can read pretty much anything, but if you're using a numerical label system like in the example the numbers should always climb.

Bumpity Bump, again.

Is it possible to fire up cheatcodes through scripting? Lets say, the slowmotion cheat (BOOOOOORING)?

[kaneda]

Code: [Select]

015D: set_gamespeed  .6!
That's what the cheat results in. You can drop it down further though for slower gameplay. I'm sure you can speed it up as well, and if I remember correctly it's as simple as replacing .6 with 2.

Default game speed is, naturally, 1.

Other cheats I'm not sure of - making all cars planes for example. Check the opcode list and tinker is the best way to find out.

http://www.gtamodding.com/index.php?title=Memory_Addresses_%28SA%29
There are some cheat memory addresses in there. Almost every one of them is a boolean value, 1 for on and 0 for off. With Cleo you can inject this line into the game.

Code: [Select]

0A8C: write_memory 0x96914C size 1 value 1 virtual_protect 0This will turn on perfect handling.

Thanks, Kaneda & Reynolds.

Could someone tell me which opcode allows vehicles to ignore paths? (damn roads)

Edit: I looked back one page and found it, nvm 

Edit again, 00AF: set_car_driver_behaviour  400?? 8? doesn't seem to work for me, neither does 00AF: set_car  404?? driver_behaviour_to  2? which is copied right from the original SCM, any help?
