The ID of the newly created 3D Text Label, or INVALID_3DTEXT_ID if the 3D Text Label limit (MAX_3DTEXT_GLOBAL) was reached.

Examples

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    Create3DTextLabel("I'm at the coordinates:\n30.0, 40.0, 50.0", 0x008080FF, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 40.0, 0, false);
    return 1;
}

public OnPlayerCommandText(playerid, cmdtext[])
{
    if (!strcmp(cmdtext, "/mark", true))
    {
        new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        new Float:x, Float:y, Float:z;
        new worldid;

        GetPlayerName(playerid, name, sizeof(name));
        GetPlayerPos(playerid, x, y, z);
        worldid = GetPlayerVirtualWorld(playerid);

        Create3DTextLabel("%s marked this place", 0xFF0000FF, x, y, z, 15.0, worldid, false, name);
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

Notes

tip

drawDistance seems to be a lot smaller when spectating.

tip

Use colour embedding for multiple colours in the text.

warning

If text[] is empty, the server/clients next to the text might crash! (Fixed in open.mp)
If the virtualworld is set as -1 the text will not appear.
