Hey there guys I am wanting to implement some ui menus to a few callouts of mine and maybe make a few extra things... but I can't seem to find any tutorials or guides that are up-to-date as of now.. is there a demo version that can be downloaded to see how it all works or am I missing something.

 

 

I don't mind using RageNativeUI or LemonUI but would prefer RageNativeUI

RageNativeUI comes with quite a few examples, what are you looking for?

I'm trying to make like a Ped Interaction Menu, sorta like STP but a basic one.. and something that I can use in my callout pack to ask and answer questions with.

I think this might be a good starting point then: https://github.com/alexguirre/RAGENativeUI/wiki/Menus-Overview

Yeah I have looked at that and I have some sorta code but its not working at all and I have followed the demos and stuff but yeah nothing. 

 

Heres the code I have. I followed the example code there and changed slight things but left it pretty much the same just to get it to show up and work... But nothing

Do you get the log statement that your key is down ("Loaded")?

No sadly I haven't, I'm not sure why it's not loading, I've pleaced the .dll and .pdb file in my plugins folder and also lspdfr folder but nothing... I eventually want the plugin to only work when player is on duty but that's a nothing issue

RAGENativeUI most likely needs to be placed in the game root folder. Move the example code from above into one of your callout plugins which you already have working. Then see if you can get the menu working there or what the error message is.

Oh yeah I'll try that, I have RageNativeUI already there because I use StopThePed and UltimateBackup anyways but yeah  I'll try put it in my callout pack

I just tried placing it into one a script in the callouts pack I made but still nothing, no error nothing. Its not even being loaded in the game

What do you mean, not even loaded? If you put just the code from above in your project and recompile, what is not being loaded? Also, add some logging to the LoadPi command and other calls down the call chain. Keep in mind you probably have to register the console command via RPH first.

Oh OK, I have it in my Public Intoxication Callout just at the end after the Public Override Void End() statement.

 

How do I register the console command throight RPH? And I've also added logging and subtitles to show if the pool has even tried to load it, in the "Main" Argument, but yeah nothing

Thank you so much LMS I got it to work now, but ive got another issue so I'll create a new Topic
