PedSpoofModel

This function was added in DSL 5

Description​

Sets a ped's model index without actually changing the ped's model.

Set a ped's model index. This doesn't actually change the ped's model, which is why it is referred to as "spoofing" here. This is a good way to get around certain hard coded behaviors of some models, such as dogs not being able to have a wanted level.

function PedSpoofModel(ped, model) --[[ ... ]] end

Parameters​

  • ped: integer - The ped to spoof the model for.
  • model: integer - The model ID to spoof the ped with.

Return Values​

None.

Example​

Spoof a ped's model to a random model ID between 2 and 258 (inclusive). This is useful for testing or creating random behaviors without changing the actual model of the ped.

local target = PedGetTargetPed(gPlayer)
if PedIsValid(target) and IsKeyBeingPressed('P') then
  local randomId = math.random(2, 258)
  PedSpoofModel(target, randomId)
end
