A simple way to add NPC's to your server

CORE_NPC

Easily add NPC's into your FiveM game

Installation

1. Download the script either from

• The Releases page
• Click on Code and then Download Zip
• Using Git Clone (See Below)

2. Drag and drop the core_npc into your server/folder/whatever you use
3. Add ensure core_npc to your server.cfg
4. Enjoy!

Usage

To add peds into your server, simply modify the config.lua file, with the template below:

{ x co-ord, y co-ord, z co-ord, ped heading, model hash, ped model, heading text/name, animation_text }

Example:

{ -56.800365447998, -785.83428955078, 43.227298736572, 500.77, 0xB353629E,"s_m_m_paramedic_01", "Paramedic", "mini@strip_club@idles@bouncer@base" }

Don't forget, if you add multiple peds, you need to add a , on all {} except for the last ped line. Example:

{...},
{...},
{...}

Thanks to BombayV, you can now simply set the draw distance for the text spawning and text colour. These can be easily set the config.

Working on

• Easy integration with bt-target
• Optimize Draw Distance for text (Thanks to BombayV)
• Optimize ped spawning, delete ped when client moves away

Using Git Clone

Using Git Clone is easy (if you have not used it before). If you have never used Git before, I would suggest just downloading the files either from the Releases page or the zip file.

git clone https://github.com/michaelrosstarr/core_npc

core_npc's Issues

Text not displayed

Solution:

In client.lua modify:

    while Config.displayText do
        local pos = GetEntityCoords(PlayerPedId())
        Wait(0)
        for _, v in pairs(Config.Peds) do
            local distance = #(pos - vec3(v[1], v[2], v[3]))
            if (distance < Config.displayDistance) then
                DrawText3D(x, y, z + 1, Config.displayColor .. v[7], 1.2, 1)
            end
        end
    end
end)

by:

    while Config.displayText do
        local pos = GetEntityCoords(PlayerPedId())
        Wait(0)
        for _, v in pairs(Config.Peds) do
            local distance = #(pos - vec3(v[1], v[2], v[3]))
            if (distance < Config.displayDistance) then
                DrawText3D(v[1], v[2], v[3] + 1, Config.displayColor .. v[7], 1.2, 1) --- MODIFY LINE
            end
        end
    end
end)

Can't get peds to do anims

I'm trying to get some NPC's to do anims at Vanilla Unicorn and most dance anims aren't working. Any suggestions?
