Download

Installation

  • Download the resource ;
  • Drag and drop it in your resources folder ;
  • Add start notif into you server.cfg.

How to use

  • Use the export below :
exports.notif:SendNotification({
	text = "Test text.",
	type = 'topRight',
	timeout = 6000,
})

Options

  • type define where the notification will be draw ;
  • timeout define how much time (in ms) the notification is on screen ;
  • You can create your own notification “type” by following the pattern in the code.

Updates

No updates yet.

Notes

  • The code is a bit messy, I’ll fix that later maybe ;
  • It doesn’t deal with duplicate notifications (not as default notifications do) ;
  • The centerLeft and centerRight options have some issues ;
  • Notifications with different timeout may create issues.

Looks cool! Nice release!

I like it!

I’m glad you enjoy it. I’ll try to optimize it as it consume far more performance than original ones.

5

Very nice release but I have a question. Can I use SetTextFont with it ?

6

You can but the notification may become a little bit messy. Plus you will have to add it into my resource as you will not be able to use it the way you used to (with default notification system).

I guess doing that should work, I’m note really into ESX so I have no clue of what you want to do precisely.

exports.notif:SendNotification({
	text = _U('wash_successful'),
	type = 'topRight',
	timeout = 6000,
})

Very nice little plugin @Elio, thanks for your work !

To replace ESX’s notifications, edit es_extended/client/functions.lua

Search for:

ESX.ShowNotification = function(msg)
  SetNotificationTextEntry('STRING')
  AddTextComponentSubstringPlayerName(msg)
  DrawNotification(false, true)
end

Change it with that code (customize the type and timeout if needed):

ESX.ShowNotification = function(msg)
  exports.notif:SendNotification({
    text = msg,
    type = 'bottomLeft',
    timeout = 6000
  })
end

Then fix notif/__resource.lua (export in singular, GitHub PR about that bug: https://github.com/Sheamle/notif/pull/1/files)

Restart your server and enjoy !

got the exact same issue all the notifications are white now… any way to solve this ?!

14

I found a way to get a better color of the text… in your locales or anywhere:
['gave_weapon'] = '~b~you gave ~y~1x~s~ ~b~%s~s~ to ~y~%s~s~.', etc.

More colors on this git site

but that is only supposed to change the text color not the background right ?! i think the main problem after using this script is that it changes the background color of the notifications not sure why cuz i cant find why is it doing that

16

@ScrappyCap @hOff I updated the resource to fix this issue.

Fixed it by just keeping the map always on
