hi all,
im very new to all this. i own net cafe and is running vcmp via lan. i would like to run few scripts (i.e. money, cars, props, weapons easily comes to mind). i downloaded buycar/props scrip (http://rapidshare.com/files/143172830/scripts.zip.html as posted by tanax).
okay here are the instructions -in bold letters - for buycar script on readme file and my actions -in italics:
1: Create a file called vcmp.cars.ini containing the vehicles in your server.
* Note: I have included my ID to Model convertor for this.
-done. i put the file put in c:\gta\vcmp folder.

2: Set the path to your vcmp.cars.ini file - set %home.dir vc-mp/
* Note: You must ensure the trailing forward slash is present.
-done. i run cmd, went to c:\gta\vcmp. typed "path set %home.dir vcmp" but i replaced vc-mp with vcmp to match location/name of my folder
3: Continue to add all your cars to the cost alias "vcmp.costcar", along with your desired prices.
-not done. didnt how to do this.
4: Add the code to the correct sections in your script.
-not sure about this. i assume this is the buycar script (buycar text document found in the folder scripts/buycar script. i copied the file (select all, copy), went to gta/vcmp, opened vcmp.mrc file. deleted all contents. pasted buycar script and saved.

-now i run vcmp server, vcmp client.
-opened mirc.
-loaded buycar script (by typing /load -rs vcmp.mrc).
-joined  my own lan server.
-(in-game now) enabled chat.
-typed !buycar... hmm nothing.
-didnt enable chat, just typed !buycar directly...still nothing.
-im lost and confused.

sorry for long and very newbie post. but i need help to run the scrip. anyone can spot where i failed? thanks in advance.
