Welcome on Las Venturas Playground's Development Portal. This site contains documentation about all the tools which are available for Las Venturas Playground developers, the gamemode itself and various other pages which -in our opinion- benefit from additional documentation.

There are a bunch of tools which aid in the development of our gamemode, each of which definitely can be beneficial for other servers as well. For more information, and if released, downloads of a tool, check it's respective page.

• Las Venturas Playground PreCompiler - Strongly enhanced Pawn's syntax.
• MapCoordinate - An easy way to find coordinates or create gang-zones.
• Pawn Native List - An easy way to find out which native functions an AMX needs.
• Pawn Performance - A tool to measure performance of the Pawn interpreter.
• World Object Locator - Find all objects within a certain radius of a position.

We also use a number of custom plugins which are required in order to run the gamemode. Documentation, and if released, downloads are available on the pages themselves.

• sscanf - A forked version of Y_Less' excellent plugin.
• ZoneManager - Managing of zones within the gamemode.

As many servers do, we often run experiments to see whether a certain solution would be better than another. Research, tools and plugins of which are available on these pages.

• AMXJIT - Up to 100x faster execution of Pawn.
