@kagikn Sorry Miss typed in old message before, I would suggest NOT stopping support for SHVDN2 scripts as quite a lot of old scripts use it, for this tool, the example script can run on SHVDN2 or SHVDN3 as well as the code designed in the YT video can be run on SHVDN2 and SHVDN3

@HKH191 You would not be able to test it because it spawns custom props. However I don't see why that would be an issue given I can spawn these with C# (or vb.net), in other words the game engine recognizes them. The peds are also a combination of NPCs and addons (do you support addons?) with animations. Once more, these are recognized by any script. Finally there are 100s of vanilla props.

@JohnFromGWN i mean yeah it should have no trouble spawning addons, from my knowledge

@HKH191 I understand but keep in mind that anything a Menyoo map can do can be done through scripting. Spawning and positioning any entity, ped, vehicle, or object is one line of code. Animating, colors, clothes, facial features...all can be done directly through scripting. When I first started modding, I made a few xml maps with Menyoo but was disappointed by inconsistent entity spawns - like ghosting. I realized I could do anything Menyoo did with scripts. Having said that, I also use Menyoo xml. For example at times I have saved 10 or more MLOs in one session. I save these in Menyoo, then I import the xml directly into MS Excel and using string formulas I generate teleport code for every single location. This saves hours of work and in a sense is similar to what you're doing. Converting xml to code. The same applies to peds. I can make 10 component changes to a ped, save it as an outfit, and then convert the Menyoo components to native functions.

@JohnFromGWN it can be done manually, but what if you have over 200 objects, it get tedious to do that, i simply made this tool public so other people can use it

@HKH191 Fully agree with you. That was my point, it can save time, particularly since in game allows testing and positioning precisely. My original point was that this doesn't compete with ymaps - it's a scripting tool and enabler.
I have a suggestion. It would be cleaner if you shortened the expression "ObjectPlacementMap_Example.ObjectPlacementMap(GTA.Native"
Perhaps to just ObjectPlaceMap or even shorter. Also GTA.Native is not necessary for those using SHVND3.
Cheers

@JohnFromGWN that part of the expression is primarily to show the user what the entity is that the object placement map is creating, the script will try and use the hash from that but if not it will use the hash inputted after that

for example
new ObjectPlacementMap(GTA.Native.Function.Call<int>(Hash.GET_HASH_KEY,"prop_container_01a"),230426,0xda76fe6e, new Vector3(2946.60132f, 2746.92627f, 42.4062309f), new Vector3(0f, -0f, 105.91346f), -1,-1, new Vector3(0f,0f,0f),new Vector3(0f,0f,0f)),

script tries to get hash of prop_container_01a first then if it cant it uses 0xda76fe6e

@HKH191 Understood. Sorry if I wasn't clear. What I meant was to shorten the string name.
For example ObjectPlacementMap_Example.ObjectPlacementMap
Becomes OPM.ObjectPlacement Map
Just as an example because the resulting lines of code are very long

@JohnFromGWN might look into that

@HKH191 @HKH191 hey quick question if the animations or voice is playing through task sequence will this be able to convert? or am i going to be limited to them just doing scenario or playing animation? im referrinmg to peds and some objects with task sequences using the fx

@scarredface1017 task sequecnes at the moment do not save

@HKH191 ok thanks for ur response ill work around it best i can with whats available. I also want to say thank you for making this masterpiece it will help me bring my map mod to life without being able to figure out codewalker lol. Very eagerly anticipating future updates!

I still don't understand this. In Menyoo you can already load the created map itself

would this allow for converted xmls to load in an AutoloadMaps folder?

@charles2077 In Menyoo, you have to do it yourself every time. Constantly pressing f8, spooner, saved files, and then scrolling all the way down for it. With this mod, it'll be done auto-magically with a script each time you load into the game. No hassle, saves time.

Not that menyoo is bad or that I'm dissing it, just explaining that this mod was made for convenience sake's.

What is its net version? My computer has the highest version of net, but it cannot work.

@zhouxuanbo1990 Same problem here!

@HKH191 Help please.
