ShowHelpNotification

Here, you will learn how to integrate our showHelpNotification system into your scripts, as well as into ESX or QBCore.

Events and exports

Client

exports['PNotifv2']:ShowHelpNotification('Press ~INPUT_PICKUP~ to pick up', true, 'white')

TriggerEvent('pnotifv2:showHelpNotification', 'Press ~INPUT_PICKUP~ to pick up', true, 'white')

ESX

TriggerEvent('esx:showHelpNotification', 'Press ~INPUT_PICKUP~ to pick up', true, 'white')

ESX.ShowHelpNotification('Press ~INPUT_PICKUP~ to pick up', true)

QBCORE

QBCore.Functions.ShowHelpNotification('~g~Press~s~ ~INPUT_PICKUP~ to talk to the contact', true)

Integrate ESX

You can always use esx.ShowHelpNotification. If you make any changes in your es_extended, go to the file es_extended/client/functions.lua.

Replace

ESX.ShowHelpNotification = function(msg, thisFrame, beep, duration)
	AddTextEntry('esxHelpNotification', msg)

	if thisFrame then
		DisplayHelpTextThisFrame('esxHelpNotification', false)
	else
		if beep == nil then beep = true end
		BeginTextCommandDisplayHelp('esxHelpNotification')
		EndTextCommandDisplayHelp(0, false, beep, duration or -1)
	end
end

Then, add this

function ESX.ShowHelpNotification(msg, thisFrame, beep, duration)
    exports['PNotifv2']:ShowHelpNotification(msg, thisFrame or false)
end

Next, open the file es_extended/client/main.lua and add the following at the end of the file.

RegisterNetEvent('esx:showHelpNotification')
AddEventHandler('esx:showHelpNotification', function(msg, thisFrame, color)
    exports['PNotifv2']:ShowHelpNotification(msg, thisFrame or false)
end)

Integrate QBCore

You can always use QBCore.Functions.ShowHelpNotification. If you need to make any changes, open the file qb-core/client/functions.lua and add the corresponding line at the very end of the file.

function QBCore.Functions.ShowHelpNotification(text, thisFrame, color)
    TriggerEvent('pnotifv2:showHelpNotification', text, thisFrame, color or 'white')
end
