Is your answer "NO" to updating the opcodes.txt?  Or are you just telling us what we can do in the meantime until the next SB is released?  The missing opcodes I'm referring to are ones that space uses in his mods.  (they function)  What reason would you not want to include functioning opcodes?  Please explain. 

No holy war here, just asking because I thought SB was setting the standard for all GTA coding - with corrections and improvements as it's developed?

I have found many incorrectly described opcodes... My point: Why would I take the time to post them if you're not going to use them?  This is the impression you're giving me.

I only want to help so please share your intentions with regard to these things. 

Thanks,

THANK YOU for stating that decompiling it (instead of using converter) will swap param order around as needed.  Thanks also for explaining the purpose of the opcodes.txt file. 

Do you plan on updating the opcodes.txt to match the INI that spaceeinstein uses today?  (some ops are missing in the search thingy)  Also, why did anyone ever swap params to begin with...?  I mean, the only thing I see that needs changing (regardless the INI) are the descriptions.  *confused*

P.S.  With all due respect to spaceeinstein (I think he's a rockstar), but I find PLPynton's INI more accurate in terms of descriptions most of the time.  (ex. if an opcode says car in the desc. even though it's for all vehicles = confusion)  I would like to see SB's default INI improved in this manner.     I have to look at ALL INIs and compare descriptions to be certain I am using opcodes correctly... which is just silly and time-consuming.   It's also confusing for a newcomer... like me.

P.P.S.  Regardless the INI, I know some things are standard coding but get lost in translation:

0 = should always be OFF
1 = should always be ON (unless 1 = OFF and 2 = ON)
DESTROY = should imply destruction, NOT removal/deletion
DELETE/REMOVE = are the same, to be rid of something
RELEASE = let go

Sorry for the rant, just sharing my opinions/preferences/and a few facts.

Eh, try this U.S. version: http://public.sannybuilder.com/gtasa_ex … ompact.rar
(see topic here about it)

Sorry, I speak English only.  Seemann translate maybe?  I have a mod that uses deflate tire... I hear pop on execute, can have car lower but texture is same (tire looks inflated not deflated).  Ideas why?

What I meant is...  I may understand the definition of something and its general purpose but I may not always see right away how they assimilate with GTA SA coding.  See: http://ardictionary.com/Assimilating/9610
Once I can see how it applies (when you elaborated), I can then incorporate it.  Uhh, make sense?

The whole script?  Ugh...  they are several for each mod until finished with each section, then I plan to combine.  I'll PM to save the space, thanks. 

I don't get it.    I mean, I get it... for that instance but can't see how it applies to what I'm trying to do.  Err, I haven't had to do anything special to use common globals like $PLAYER_ACTOR - they're working just dandy without me converting anything to permit the use of them AFAIK.  Please elaborate if what I'm doing will eventually cause a crash? :wow:

Separately, I need to make my CLEO script check a dma var (from scm) and tell me if it's doing X... I have had no success so far.

:MOVEIT_DOOR
03CA:   object $9811 exists 
jf @MOVEIT_COND
if or
0837:   object $9811 animation == "CLO_Pose_In_O" 
0837:   object $9811 animation == "CLO_Pose_Out_O" 
jf @MOVEIT_COND
...blah blah blah

Can you or Seemann tell me if this is impossible to do in a CLEO script -OR- how to accomplish it correctly?

Many thanks in advance,
