About This File
Hey all!
Included in the package are the following files:
1) packages/mugshot.js - include this from within your packages/index.js file such as require("mugshot");
2) client_packages/mugshot.js - include this in your client_packages/index.js such as require("./mugshot.js");
3) client_packages/mugshot (Folder) - upload this directly to your client_packages folder
To take a screen simply call the event: prepareScreenshot
- Server side: player.call("prepareScreenshot");
- Client side: mp.events.call("prepareScreenshot");
The process of taking a screenshot:
- Request the player headshot
- Wait 2 seconds for it to load (best result thanks to GTA Forums reference)
- Get the Pedheadshot TXD String for Sprite and set Variable to true to display sprite in Render event
- Sprite is shown on screen for 1 frame!
- On the next call of Render - it will take a screenshot, which takes a screenshot of the previous frame.
- It will then stop processing the render event, unregister the pedheadshot and notify that a Headshot has been taken
- Client side will now trigger a HTML window to open ready to accept an event
- The event will trigger when the domReady is recieved and this event will contain the URL of the screenshot taken and the resolution of the game
- The HTML will then take the image, crop out only the mugshot and then convert it to base64 - roughly 50kb per mugshot
- The CEF will then notify Client Side to upload the data to the Server
- The server will recieve the Mugshot as a Base64 Image string (which can be decoded manually for testing at: https://base64.guru/converter/decode/image)
- It will then upload the Image currently to imgur with anonymous setting and provide you back the URL uploaded in console.
To use IMGUR
-
Go to https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/addclient - Log into your Imgur account and create an Application
-
Set the type to Anonymous
-
Set the callback URL to: https://www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback
-
Give it a name, email and description
-
Click submit and you will get your Client ID - add this to packages/mugshot.js
NOTICE: You will see the mugshot appear on screen for a brief 1-2 frames however this is unavoidable no matter what I have tried as this is how the Screenshot tool takes the screenshot in the first place.
