Required Arguments

  • modelid: A whole integer specifying the GTASA skin ID.
  • x: A floating point number representing the X coordinate on the map.
  • y: A floating point number representing the Y coordinate on the map.
  • z: A floating point number representing the Z coordinate on the map.

Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.

Example

Server

This example creates an ped when the resource starts: 

function pedLoad ( name )
   createPed ( 120, 5540.6654, 1020.55122, 1240.545 )
end
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(), pedLoad )

Client

This example creates a ped, and makes it damage proof: 

thePed = createPed(120, 5540.6654, 1020.55122, 1240.545) -- Creates a ped
function cancelPedDamage()
	cancelEvent() -- Cancels the onClientPedDamage event
end
addEventHandler("onClientPedDamage", thePed, cancelPedDamage) -- When thePed is damaged, cancelPedDamage is called
