Building this exampleCopy Anchor Link

Nothing to build. Copy this folder into your server's resources folder, rename it to vMenu.ExamplePlugin.Lua and ensure it.

Making your own pluginCopy Anchor Link

1. Take vmenu.lua from the plugin-api folder of the vMenu Enhanced zip your server runs, and put it in your resource.
2. Load it before your own scripts in fxmanifest.lua:

   Copy Text

   lua54 'yes'
   shared_script 'vmenu.lua'
   client_script 'client.lua'
   server_script 'server.lua'

3. Use the global vMenu table in your scripts, for example local plugin = vMenu.CreatePlugin('My Plugin'), then ensure the resource.

Calls that wait for vMenu (Connect, GetText, Server.Register) must run inside CreateThread or a menu event handler. When you update vMenu, replace vmenu.lua with the one from the new zip.
