This version brings a new feature, it doesn't fix anything from the previous version.

Add custom pickup support! createPickup + setElementData. It uses setPickupType to change the pickup model clientside.

Changes

• fixed version string, was 2.0 instead of 2.0.0 (missing last 0) => causing error in updater_s.lua, now it's 2.0.1 anyway

Full Changelog: v1.7.0...v1.8.0

v1.7.0

Backwards compatible (almost) release!

Changes:

• Altered the way you're meant to use spawnPlayer: corrected the example in README which was wrong
• Added a fix for skin not loading after you re-spawn the player: it now refreshes (#12)
• Vehicle upgrades are now saved in the server for syncing to all clients. Previously vehicles would lose upgrades every time the model was changed clientside. (#13)
• Added ignoreTXD, ignoreDFF and ignoreCOL variables to use in mod_list and exported functions for loading models which don't need DFF/TXD(/COL for objects) (suggested by Gaimo#0152)

For any support with the newmodels library you can contact me. Details in the README.md

Enjoy! 🔥
