[REL] Morphine's Fix Pack

[morphine]

Roaming around the official VC-MP forums infested with our PAWN brothers is quite useful at times. A certain topic inspired me to write this little snippet/fix but sadly, only Squirrel servers will be able to benefit from it. If anyone wants to port it, be my guest. It is not really much, but enough modesty.

   ***   Morphine's Fix Packs   ***

--- Skin-Fix version 0.1 ---

A few of VC-MP's bugs are related to the skins used by players in-game.
Bug â„–1. "Setting skins after skin 106 is not possible without setting the default skin (0) first." - Fix added.
Bug â„–2. "Custom chosen skins are not synched to newly connected players." - Fix added.
Bug â„–3. "Setting skins in a car causes a player to crash/turn into a blob." - Fix added.

--- Stealth-Fix version 0.1 ---
Bug â„–1."A bug relating the use of 'stealth' - i.e. deleting your radar blip from the map. Newly connected players will be able to see your blip." - Fix added.

As seen in the README, this snippet will focus on two gameplay aspects of VC:MP - skins and stealth. The idea behind this is a very simple one, but getting this to work in a stable (not perfect) way took away a lot of time. Whatever you do with this, please try and keep the credits, because I wasted far more time writing this for you than you will waste on downloading and pasting this in.

There will be two versions of this snippet: the ME (Manual Entry) Version, and the SES version. Copyright goes to stormeus for the latter.

Now the ME is as it says, a manual kind. You'll have to personally paste everything in with trial and error, to be sure you do not screw up your already standing script with it. The SES version, however, works more like a module, which can be disabled and enabled at any time desired. Sadly, I've not gotten too in-depth with storm's SES system yet, so I asked him to get it packed in that way (yes, I know, 5 years of waiting, but it is really worth the wait )

Edit the script according to your own tastes, I have based the triggering of arrays et cetera on commands, this wouldn't necessarily be your case. Uber alles, edit this stuff if you know what you are doing.

[Skirmant]

Is it just me, or is the download link broken?

[morphine]

It's just you, yeah.

[XGamer]

The link is not working.

[Charley]

Works for me

[Skirmant]

This is what I get:



Probably some browser incompatibility issue.
What about a mirror to a third party site? Or maybe you can attach the files to your posts.

[Gudio]

Just press ctrl+s and save that page as a file on your desktop. Now you should be able to open it with winrar or something else. They have shitty configured web server, that's why you see these characters in your browser.
After setting new skin for someone who drives the car, player who is standing next to him won't hear running engine anymore till the driver reenter to the car. It's funny bug We found it few weeks ago on XRR with NC.

[morphine]

Well it never really happens "in" a car because the player is first ejected, then given the skin, and THEN finally put back into the car. (Here at least)

P.S. I can't see any letters, I just click the link and it downloads perfectly.

[Shadow]

Rar!�ϐs��
�������F�t��0������
���$Sg�U�@3� ���compile.nut���f   ï¿½��Ձr�8=�Tcrp����Bp

Anyways, just double click Save As and put .rar extension after the archivename

[morphine]

You don't need to put a .rar extension after the name, it should recognize it automatically. :S

I don't know who to blame, the server or your shitty browsers.

[Thijn]

I don't know who to blame, the server or your shitty browsers.

I would blame the shitty browsers since its working fine for me as well.

[morphine]

A quick note: contrary to popular belief, the second set of skins does not start at skin 101. The last skin of set 1 is skin 106, which is a slut skin used on a variety of servers such as XE, which currently uses skins only from the first set. The skin after 106 will be the skin of one of the members of Love Fist, which by definition is a special skin, and where the second set of skins actually starts.

[Gudio]

Please tell me again it's problem with shitty browsers First download was from Morphine's server, second from mine.

[stormeus]

I have no problem with pointing out an issue with our servers, but please do not be a whiny, arrogant bitch about it.

[Gudio]

Thank you for trying to insult me, Stormeus. I don't like when someone writes crap about something that doesn't have a clue. Anyways seems that you fixed it so people won't have that problem anymore, right? You should thank me for explain what's wrong there than calling me arrogant bitch.
