Description
Creates a ped at a coordinate
Syntax
{{{syntax1}}}
Parameter
Native analog
CREATE_CHAR

This creates a character at a coordinate. Using this opcode requires the model to be loaded through opcode 0247 or else the game might crash. Most script editors like Sanny Builder support using the character's DFF model name in the second parameter. Once spawned, the character will be permanent in the game even after it dies or after you die or get busted. If you no longer need your character anymore, you could turn it into a random ped using opcode 01C2 or destroy it instantly using opcodes 009B or 034F. Note that the sixth parameter is placed in the beginning instead of at the end.

Sanny Builder example:

009A: 0@ = create_actor_pedtype 4 model #BFORI at 0.0 0.0 0.0

Notes

The above format is more commonly used. The actual format of this opcode is in order:
009A=6,%1d% %2o% %3d% %4d% %5d% %6d%
The format to use depends on which INI file you use.

In Sanny Builder, this opcode is equivalent to the command Actor.Create.

Example:

Actor.Create(0@, 4, #BFORI, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

Example

Main article: Spawn a ped

This is an example code and should not be copied verbatim. The following code is for San Andreas using Sanny Builder's format.

 :LoadModel
 0247: load_model #BFORI
 
 :CheckModel
 0001: wait 0 ms
 00D6: if
 0248:   model #BFORI available
 004D: jump_if_false @CheckModel
 009A: 0@ = create_actor_pedtype 4 model #BFORI at 0.0 0.0 0.0
 0249: release_model #BFORI
 004E: end_thread

Special Peds

Special peds uses models SPECIAL#.dff, where # is a number from 01 to 04 in GTA3, 01 to 21 in Vice City, and 01 to 10 in San Andreas. It is used in conjunction with 023C. The special actor ID number corresponds to the number in SPECIAL#.dff. You do not have to load SPECIAL#.dff as it is always loaded into the game. Each special actor ID can accommodate only one special ped at a time and can be replaced by another special ped if the other special ped has the same ID.

In GTA 3 and Vice City, every special actor number is used at least once. In San Andreas, the game actively uses special actor numbers 1 to 5 while the rest is not actively used in the game.

Example

Loading special peds is similar to loading regular peds. The following code is for San Andreas using Sanny Builder's format.

 :LoadModel
 023C: load_special_actor 'ANDRE' as 1
 
 :CheckModel
 0001: wait 0 ms
 00D6: if
 023D:   special_actor 1 loaded
 004D: jump_if_false @CheckModel
 009A: 0@ = create_actor_pedtype 23 model #SPECIAL01 at 0.0 0.0 0.0
 0296: unload_special_actor 1
 004E: end_thread
