I have a problem with a vehicle place. I use this code:

CODE

{$CLEO .cs} 0000: NOP 0247: request_model #INFERNUS 038B: load_requested_models 00A5: $WOZ = create_car #INFERNUS at 2499.2476 -1684.218 12.9276 0175: set_car $WOZ z_angle_to 102.7758 0A93: end_custom_thread

The Car should to stand right here:



But this car stand here:



So, the question is: What I'm doing bad? And what I must to do to place this car where I want?


PS: I'm sorry, my english is not very good

Maybe vehicle is created when you are far from its spawn location? Then COLs aren't loaded, vehicle falls through the ground and appears on the nearest point in the cars path. To make it stay near player, it would be better to make it unable to move and when player is near, enable moving. The opcode must be 0519, I think.

As a addition to the post above.

First, never forget to check if the model is available.

CODE

repeat wait 0 until Model.Available(#INFERNUS)

Second, don't use global variables in a CLEO script. Use Local Variables instead.

CODE

00A5: 1@ = create_car #INFERNUS at 2499.2476 -1684.218 12.9276 0175: set_car 1@ z_angle_to 102.7758

Doomed I use this opcode (0519) and everything is ok but the car is
above ground.

PICTURE:



What now?

Don't think too hard. What would you do, if you spawn a car to high? Just lower your z-value. Make it, for example, 11.6276, and it will look beautiful.

Most likely there are other solutions, but this is easy, so why not using it?

[rocketfingers14]

It doesn't work ;/ I don't know what I'm doing bad. Can you write for me whole skeleton of code?


HAHAHA I do it I know what I'm doing bad . Thanks for all :]

This works for me:

CODE

{$CLEO .cs} 0247: request_model #INFERNUS 038B: load_requested_models repeat wait 0 until Model.Available(#INFERNUS) 00A5: 1@ = create_car #INFERNUS at 2499.2476 -1684.218 11.6276 0175: set_car 1@ z_angle_to 102.7758 Car.LockInCurrentPosition(1@) = True repeat wait 0 until 00FE:   actor $PLAYER_ACTOR sphere 0 in_sphere 2499.2476 -1684.218 12.9276 radius 10.0 10.0 10.0 Car.LockInCurrentPosition(1@) = False 0A93: end_custom_thread

Coding is certainly not only using opcodes, but it is also a bit of creativity. I don't know a "nice" way to make it, I'm afraid, so I invent something.

[rocketfingers14]

Yea I know, i have to do some new missions with cars, now i know how to place it :]

PS: When i end, maybe i show this missions in gtaforums :]

[rocketfingers14]

eeh.. I have next problem ;/

I want to place car here: (2 wheels on the road, 2 on the pavement)




I use this code:

CODE

{$CLEO .cs} 0000: NOP 0247: request_model #ADMIRAL 038B: load_requested_models :check wait 10 Model.Available(#ADMIRAL) jf @check 00A5: 2@ = create_car #ADMIRAL at 2472.752 -1737.5663 11.5276 0175: set_car 2@ Z_angle_to 271.3138 0519: set_car 2@ locked 1 wait 1000 0519: set_car 2@ locked 0   0A93: end_custom_thread

And the car stay here:



What i have to do to place this car as in the picture 1?

[Little Psycho]

That's impossible to do, dude.

[rocketfingers14]

Why?! and how you know it?

Maybe It's possible

It's hardcoded in all GTA arcade games (from GTA3 to VCS), that all vehicle "weight" stay on the same place, but when you "touch" the vehicle, the weight of car is getting to other sides. However in GTA4, it's fixed. I think it's engine issue.

sh*t I write script with new mission and cars staying unreal ;/

EDIT: But when i edit main.scm and i create new car, he's staying where i place him and everything is ok.

Well actually there is an way ..
You can put your car at his place again, it shuld fix.

CODE

Car.PutAt(2@, 2472.752, -1737.5663, 11.5276)

Even if that does't work, try to create random ped in your car then just destroy him, this way MUST work.

CODE

0560: create_random_actor_in_car 2@ handle_as 3@ Actor.DestroyInstantly(3@)
