Rockstar Editor enabled in GTAW


Recommended Posts

Short description: Toggle the Rockstar Editor on for better character screenshots and videos. 

Detailed description: For a long time, the Rockstar Editor wasn't usable on RageMP because it caused crashes. It's disabled by default. However, as of november last year, that's been fixed: https://rage.mp/forums/topic/6575-rage-multiplayer-10-developer-preview-1-release/ (ctrl+F rockstar editor)

So, there's a little flag that has to be enabled, which is seen here https://wiki.rage.mp/index.php?title=Recorder::start 

I'm not a developer, I don't know how this works. According to this post https://rage.mp/forums/topic/2220-rockstar-editor-support/ you need to make the server use client side API to enable it. Frankly, I have no idea what that means, but that's what we have devs for! 

Commands to add: None. mp.game.recorder.start(mode); mode=1 or 0, maybe.

Items to add: None.

How would your suggestion improve the server? It'll allow anyone to make awesome screenshots using the Rockstar Editor. It basically works like this: you press a button, record a scene, then save that, then later start up the Rockstar Editor, and you can freecam around and add in some cool effects and stuff. That's something! The thing is, anyone can do this. You don't need the skills or patience you do for Menyoo or something, it's as easy as just moving the camera around, adjusting a very simple ui and bam, got a nice lil' screenshot!

 

But this will just lead to everyone making unrealistic FB photos! 

No, it won't, because the Rockstar Editor doesn't allow you to add in any new objects, unlike Menyoo, which is already allowed and frequently used. 

 

What it will allow is making nice looking screenshots and videos inside interiors, which would be a great help for many things. Remaking interiors in Menyoo is very difficult, as you need to import the objects from interior designer into the propslist.xml which I've found is a really tiring process and God, I just can't get it to work. 

 

Additional information:

I'm not a dev, I don't know how this all works. But according to these forum posts I found, it is possible.

100% support, if it's possibile of course.

 

Aside from the obvious benefit when it comes to taking picture/video, there's something surreal and frankly fucking cool about revisiting old RP scenes and being able to fly around to see it from different angles, weeks after it's happened.
