Sets the model of a given element. This allows you to change the model of a player (or ped), a vehicle or an object.

Syntax

bool setElementModel ( element theElement, int model )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: element:setModel(...)
Variable: .model
Counterpart: getElementModel


Required Arguments

  • theElement: the element you want to change.
  • model: the model ID to set.
    • For players/peds: A GTASA player model (skin) ID. See Character Skins.
    • For vehicles: The vehicle ID of the vehicle being changed.
    • For objects/projectiles/weapons: An int specifying the model id.

Returns

Returns true if successful, false otherwise.

Example

Example 1 (Server)

This example allows players to change their own skin with a command (/skin [ID]) 

local spam = {}

function setSkin(player, cmd, skin)
    if spam[player] and getTickCount() - spam[player] < 4000 then
        return outputChatBox("You cannot change skin that often!", player, 255, 0, 0)
    end

    skin = skin and tonumber(skin)

    if getElementModel(player) == skin or isPedDead(player) then
        return
    end

    if skin and skin <= 99999 then -- what do we know about dynamic ped ID range?
        setElementModel(player, skin)
        spam[player] = getTickCount()
    else
        outputChatBox("Invalid skin ID!", player, 255, 0, 0)
    end
end
addCommandHandler("skin", setSkin)

function cleanUp()
    if spam[source] then
        spam[source] = nil
    end
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", root, cleanUp)
Click to collapse [-]
Example 2 (Server)

This example allows players to transform their current vehicle into another vehicle model. 

local spam = {}

function changeMyVehicle(player, command, newModel)
	if spam[player] and getTickCount() - spam[player] < 2500 then
		return outputChatBox("Don't spam vehicle changes!", player, 255, 0, 0)
	end

	local theVehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(player)
	
	if not (theVehicle and getVehicleController(theVehicle) == player) then
		return outputChatBox("You must be driving a vehicle in order to change it!", player, 255, 0, 0)
	end

	if isValidModel(newModel) and isElement(theVehicle) then
		setElementModel(theVehicle, newModel)
		spam[player] = getTickCount()
	else
		outputChatBox("Invalid vehicle ID!", player, 255, 0, 0)
	end
end
addCommandHandler("changeveh", changeMyVehicle)

function isValidModel(modelID)
	modelID = tonumber(modelID)
	if modelID and modelID >= 400 and modelID <= 611 then
		return true
	end
	return false
end

function cleanUp()
	if spam[source] then
		spam[source] = nil
	end
end
addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit", root, cleanUp)
