[Standalone] Laser sight script

[Ninja_force]

I made some thing like this using bone with C++ on GTA V :

nGravityGun

but i did delete the project, i can’t remember which native i was using to make it, if i remember i will send you.

Alright, thanks for supporting!

You can push this version, You now have a cleanest code and you don’t use bone anymore but the offset of the weapon ajusted.

E.g :

I’ll take a look right now. Thanks for contributing man means a lot! Developers helping developers!

[nat2k15]

Alright I updated my github thanks again @Ninja_force

[Stephen_Obrien]

where do you place the folder?

[nat2k15]

it’s just a normal server resource. Drag and drop into your resource folder and start in server.cfg.

[outsider310]

so its now server sided?

[nat2k15]

It’s always been server sides. I just meant it was a client script. I couldn’t edit the post.

[drinkwock]

How do install it ?

[meowsandstuff]

Gonna try learn to make this server sided. Any pointers on how to start?

[HopelessGaming]

Have you made a server-side file for this script yet?

[hcphoon01]

This looks really cool, does it work in first person view?

[Sentron]

i love this script but for some reason the closer the target i aim for the more off centered the laser will be, is there a way to fix this?
