Hello MTA players, I realised that I had to create this post because I got a lot of feedback, I stopped all my activities in MTA and I don't play MTA anymore because I had to make some changes in my life and change my life direction, I saw MTA in 2010 and I started playing, during this time I made very good friends, developers and players, so I would like to thank you all endlessly, 3 months ago I stopped all my activities in MTA, but I was still receiving a lot of message requests (for paid development or other issues) after that I gave everyone goodwill feedback, but I had to stop this because I was receiving a lot of messages from MTA servers and players, Anyway I have to say that I will miss all MTA players and developers, I will visit from time to time but I won't have much time for that, for some players who will try to contact me I have to say that I don't have a discord server and I don't answer private messages, I think you will be understanding and thanks for that... I have reached the end of my career in MTA. I have worked voluntarily on many servers and participated in numerous projects. I have sold all the projects I worked on, both paid and free, and I would like to announce that I will no longer be continuing my projects. I had a great time on many servers, and for that, I want to express my gratitude. Finally, I am deeply grateful to the valuable members of the MTA team, as they have helped me in many ways. Some of them include @Sarrum, @Vinyard, @Citizen, @IIYAMA, @AlexTMjugador, and myonlake (Patrik). I will miss you, guys!

Hey MTA community! I’m excited to release the latest version of the In-Game Lua Editor for MTA:SA, now with even more powerful features to enhance your development experience directly inside the game. What’s New in v3.0: Create Resources directly in the editor, with the ability to choose the folder (e.g., [ADMIN], [GAMEMODES]) for resource creation. Rename and Relocate Resources in one action, making resource management easier. Delete Resources with a confirmation dialog to avoid accidental deletions. Create and Edit HTML Files alongside Lua files, allowing you to handle both HTML and Lua resources directly in the game. Base Path System to restrict developers to specific folders, making it perfect for team organization and isolating workspaces. Function Blacklist: Automatically block dangerous functions like loadstring, setAccountPassword, removeAccount, and others for added security. In-Panel Notifications to give real-time feedback for every action performed in the editor. Security Enhancements: Full ACL Permission System to control access and operations. Activity Logs with SQLite tracking every create, edit, delete, and rename operation. Path Protection and additional security measures to prevent risky operations. Video Demo: Watch on YouTube Download: Download the Resource Here GitHub Repository: Visit the GitHub Repository How it Works: The In-Game Lua Editor allows you to browse, create, edit, and delete Lua and HTML files all in real-time directly inside MTA:SA. No need for external editors or FTP uploads, and no server restarts required. Installation Instructions: Download the resource and add it to your server. Grant "Admin" ACL permissions to the resource. Edit the permissionACL variable in editorS.lua with your admin group. Use the /editor command in-game to open the editor. Let me know your thoughts and feedback! This tool has saved me countless hours, and I hope it helps improve your development process as well. More updates and contributions coming soon!

Tired of San Andreas water that looks like someone spilled green paint and called it “good enough”? Meet this shader: water so realistic, you'll forget you're in a 22 year old game. Enjoy ripples, reflections, and surface waves that almost make you wish GTA had fishing. Boats finally look like they’re actually in the water not floating on radioactive soup. Best part? It’s fully customizable tweak the look, the color, the movement, or make the water as cursed as you want. Plus, it’s at least kind of optimized to run smoothly on hopefully most rigs, so you won’t need a NASA PC to enjoy the water. Just install it, and watch your players get distracted and drive off a pier. https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p=resources&s=details&id=19007

MTA UI Editor is a project created with the goal of making interface creation for Multi Theft Auto (MTA) much easier and more accessible. The editor provides a dedicated visual application for building interface windows for MTA, supporting both DxDraw-based interfaces and MTA’s native UI system. With it, you can visually design your interfaces and export them already prepared for direct use in your MTA resources, saving a significant amount of development time. This is the first version of the project, so some configurations may still be inconsistent or incomplete. If you encounter any issues, unexpected behavior, or have suggestions for improvements, please open an issue on the project’s GitHub repository. Feedback from the community is extremely important to help improve the tool. Requirements Windows .NET Framework 4.7.2 Open Source The source code is completely open and free. Anyone is welcome to modify it, improve it, or contribute to the project in any way. Download: https://github.com/was547/MTAUIEditor/releases Official Repository: https://github.com/was547/MTAUIEditor Picture: https://ibb.co/LXYgXdqV I don't know if I have published in the right place on the forum, sorry if this is the wrong category for this kind of resource, greetings!

Time flies man...

Sphene is now officially open source! https://github.com/sphene/sphene-mta Excited to work with all of you, to turn this highly experimental pile of trash into something beautiful! Remember, Sphene historically has been very experimental. Many different approaches were tried and researched and that has left a lot of experimental, legacy and unfinished code. It's not the most glamorous, but we're still proud of it! Together we'll refactor the legacy code, we'll finish the unfinished pieces and we'll work through all the large problems that are ahead of us. Repository wiki will be filled with information, and lists (current states of each mission, etc) in the coming days. REMEMBER! Sphene is NOT production ready. We will only help those who want to contribute to our development with setting up their local development versions.

Hello all. The holiday season is finally here, and we have prepared a more compact summary post for you than usual. Please read on to see, what we have been up to lately. GTA VI The upcoming year will bring us the next game from the Grand Theft Auto series - GTA VI. Planned to launch in Fall 2025 on consoles, it will likely arrive on PC as well, just some months later. The second trailer for GTA VI is also rumoured to be shown soon, with some elaborate fan theories backing these rumours. Will the game be good? Only the time will tell, but looking back, there was not a major GTA game release from Rockstar Games that was bad (for the sake of this argument, let's consider the Trilogy as a minor release ). That alone makes it worth to look forward to it, and it will be also nice to re-visit Vice City similar to how we did it with Liberty City and San Andreas. MTA Status and Updates Not much to report in regards of MTA - we have been focusing on improving various parts of our infrastructure, which is not immediately visible at first glance. Still, since there are many areas that need the attention, there is a lot of work involved. Thankfully, CiBeR, Botder, Lopsi, Dutchman and others have been looking into it. Thanks to the hard work done by our Helper - FileEX, we have also refreshed the Lua syntax highlighting system on our Wiki. For a long time it was unmaintained, causing many of the recent MTA scripting functions and events to be not correctly highlighted in the code snippet examples on the wiki. This has changed though, and it should be working much better now. We have been also tinkering with our #MTASpotlights hashtag on X / Twitter. We are still exploring this idea, but nonetheless, thank you for your submissions so far. If you would like to share some media that we could promote, you can do so on our Discord, just please make sure to read the guidelines beforehand. And, naturally, there have been additions to the mod's source code now and then, bringing in new scripting functions and bugfixes. Similarly, we have been pushing those as client updates for you, also now and then. Player Counts and Other Statistics Type Amount of players Date / Time Recent peak number of concurrent unique players 24,808 players 2024.12.22 (at 18.13 GMT) Highest recorded number of concurrent unique players 52,098 players 2020.04.02 (at 18.00 GMT) Recent number of daily unique players 95,445 players 2024.12.15 (Sunday) Highest recorded number of daily unique players 185,818 players 2018.02.03 (Saturday) Recent number of monthly unique players 478,736 players September, 2024 Highest recorded number of monthly unique players 805,903 players January, 2018 For a mod for a game that is nearly 20 years old now, these are fairly good numbers. Smaller than last year, but still impressive. We are glad that you are still with us. MTA:SA version or series Percentage of players using that version or series as of 24th of December, 2024 1.6.0 99.5% 1.5.9 0.4% <1.5.9 0.1% Also, as of 24th of December, 2024: there are over 90,000 members on our Discord server, we have got 13,790 followers on X/Twitter, 58,000 users follow our Facebook fanpage , and our Steam Community group has nearly 50,000 members. --- To end this post on a high note, we would like to take this moment to wish you all Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year. Enjoy the Season and take care. -MTA Team

I am working with Cursor. Which is a fork of Visual Studio Code modified with AI in mind. It is my daily driver. The free version should give you enough monthly requests to finish your script. An no this is not a stupid AI, it is a optimised version for coding after all. You can even choose which AI you want to use, but some advanced may be behind a paywall.

PARKING METER SCRIPT COMPATIBLE WITH THE NEWEST OWLGAMING VIDEO SHOWCASE INTERESTING FEATURES OF THIS SCRIPT: dxDraw UI – modern and user-friendly display (like a real parking meter). Hourly parking system – players can choose how many hours they want to park up to 24 hours (to prevent unrealistic over-parking) Dynamic price calculation – price is automatically calculated based on time. Active/expired parking check – players can extend their active parking or start a new one. Sound effects – confirmation, payment. and error sounds. MDC integration – all payments and parking data are stored and then shown in MDC. Multiple parking zones – you can add unlimited zones and meters via config file.

MTA:SA - Claire Anticheat Claire is a modular, lightweight anticheat resource for MTA:SA, designed to improve the integrity and fairness of servers. Its core philosophy is simple: organize detections into clean, independent modules, make them easy to configure, and build an open platform that others can expand and improve. Claire runs silently in the background, acting as a guardian layer — constantly monitoring player behavior, network conditions, and client-side integrity without interfering with gameplay or degrading performance. Its design favors discretion and precision, targeting cheats without disrupting legitimate users. If you're looking for a solid, customizable way to secure your MTA:SA server, try out Claire. Why does it matter? By being fully open-source, Claire gives server owners an accessible and transparent tool to detect common exploits and improve their server environment. But more than that, it invites collaboration. The idea is that, together — through testing, feedback, improvements, and shared knowledge — we can create a more solid, trustworthy anticheat resource that benefits the entire MTA community. Current features Claire currently includes over 20 independent detection modules, covering movement, combat, environment manipulation, network spoofing, and more. All detections are modular, configurable, and designed to operate silently in the background with minimal performance impact. False positives are rare thanks to tolerance-based logic, score systems, and heuristic analysis. Overall reliability across all modules is expected to be around 95%, all features are listed at our GitHub page. Contributing Claire is an open-source project — contributions are welcome! Feel free to contribute with PRs, reports, or suggestions at our GitHub page. You can also reach out to us on Discord. Download Download from MTA Community: latest release - 1.1.5 from 2025/04/22 Download from GitHub: latest release - 1.1.5 from 2025/04/22 Please check our GitHub page before downloading it, I'm open for suggestions.

It is indeed a kind of attack. It means that the player is able execute clientside-code on demand. The attacker is triggering 'known generic events' which might be handled by the server. The ones that are unknown are in your logs, the ones that are known and trigger able are not. But that does not mean that the ones that did trigger didn't cause unwanted results. You might want to consider to restart the resources, just to make sure there is no memory leak. The event which AngelAlpha mentioned can indeed help with detecting that kind of attacks. As an extend you can also add a honeypot, which in this case are 'unkown' events for your server but know for other servers. When a player uses this kind of attack again, you can ban them automatic. You might want take a closer look at your logs for candidates (for example money related). There is also this event: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OnPlayerTriggerEventThreshold But be careful with automating things, always test these kind of stuff or you might accidentally nuke your own player base.

UPDATE: I figured that it was an acl issue, that I had to enable HTTP for everyone, so the created API can be available for everyone, even the ones who don't have any auth But I will be needing help on ACL, since I am creating a new form scratch gamemode, I will need to write my own and custom acl as well. Or perhaps use the current account system of MTA as well since I can't edit to create my own And I appreciate a lot for the helps IIYAMA gave me during this issue with the stuff I had with CEF and how they should communicate.

I’m getting the “AC#4 Malicious activity” error when I try to join the server. I’ve already reinstalled Windows, but it didn’t fix anything. The Windows antivirus isn’t running, and stuff like Steam and Discord aren’t working either. Any idea what’s going on?

Hi there, You've already made a couple of advertisements for your server which can be found at the following links: https://forum.multitheftauto.com/topic/146857-big-roleplay/?do=findComment&comment=1033885 https://forum.multitheftauto.com/topic/146886--big-roleplay-《/?do=findComment&comment=1033919 https://forum.multitheftauto.com/topic/146906-big-roleplay/?do=findComment&comment=1033958 At this point you're on the verge of spamming, so please focus on one and only one of the topics I've linked above and please stop creating new topics for the same server, otherwise we will have to take administrative actions. Thanks for understanding.

I just found some old screenshots from 2012 I can't remember what the server name was. at some point in my MTA life, I actually enjoyed playing DD and I was a member of the [HiVi] DD/DM clan. even though I sucked at DD/DM, all that mattered was the friendship. (shoutout to David, Belmin and Kyle) 2012, a private server with zombies 2012, private server. we didn't need much to have fun back then. a private server and an admin panel was all we needed to have fun around this time, I had discovered the map editor and built some sort of a greenzone on LS Observatory 2012 as well. I can't remember which mod it was but it allowed you to literally carpet bomb :~. I found these on Facebook by accident. I wish I had saved more pictures. I'm not sure if Imgur existed back then, but all the images I uploaded were uploaded to tinypic (from 2008) and they are long gone.

why is it so hard to find a decent server to play on without admins being so toxic and rude? why is it only in mta? Last server I played on was a default server not even a minute has passed and I got banned and called the n word by the owner. That's not it I played on another server which was called default P and I got muted for no reason, I only asked why the server was lagging and they muted me without any explanations. I even got blown up over and over again when I joined a random rpg server, not even a second in and I just kept getting blown up repeatedly. I did play mta since 2012 and I did play on cit ( not like it's any different lol the mta admins there are way worse ) I even remember that there was an event in cit where you had to steal a car and deliver it somewhere while everyone is chasing you and I even got chased by an admin with super speed ( they had the cit tag by the way ) and got destroyed by them, another time I literally got banned for delivering the vehicle and accused me of exploiting bugs. I only stole the car and drove it. the point is I really wanna find a decent server to play on, a server that respects its player community. MTA doesn't have that sadly and it breaks my heart that one of my favorite games has a very toxic community and very sadistic admins. I really wonder if I should make my own server and I wouldn't mind if anyone wants to help me make it and spread positivity with me I'd be glad to welcome you in. Thanks for listening.

¡Bienvenido a una nueva era de MTA:DAYZ! Te presentamos el servidor MTA:DAYZ – The-DayZ, desarrollado por Trust & Machin.

Witaj w nowej erze MTA:DAYZ! Przedstawiamy serwer MTA:DAYZ – The-DayZ, tworzony przez Trust & Machin. Projekt powstawał przez rok, jest w pełni autorski, pisany od zera bez użycia gotowych rozwiązań. Premiera planowana na zimę tego roku . Zobacz zwiastun serwera Dołącz do naszej społeczności na Discordzie ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Dlaczego warto wybrać nasz serwer? Każdy system został stworzony z myślą o graczach, zoptymalizowany i dopracowany, aby zapewnić stabilną i wciągającą rozgrywkę. Chcemy zaoferować coś unikatowego, nie kolejną kopię istniejących rozwiązań. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Interfejs dostosowany do potrzeb gracza: • Wszystkie statystyki w jednym miejscu • Historia punktów premium i punktów gry • Przejrzysty poradnik, ustawienia bindów, FPS i audio • Możliwość personalizacji celownika oraz korzystania z kodów polecających • Lista osiągnięć, które możesz zdobywać podczas gry ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Poziomy grup odblokowujące kolejne funkcje, m.in.:  – własny TAG na czacie  – blip lokalizacji śmierci towarzysza na mapie  – bonusy medyczne i inne taktyczne wsparcie • Ranking grup — na podstawie łącznych statystyk wszystkich członków grupy, takich jak zabójstwa, czas przeżycia, tworzymy dynamiczny ranking, który pozwala na rywalizację między zespołami i podkreśla najlepsze drużyny na serwerze ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Wprowadziliśmy bezpieczny system wymiany, który pozwala handlować nawet offline, co poprawia komfort rozgrywki i zmniejsza ryzyko oszustw. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ W grze spotkamy legendarnych bossów, w tym Groundera — przeciwnika, który potrafi tworzyć falę uderzeniową, podrywającą graczy i utrudniającą jego pokonanie. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ System craftingu pozwala na tworzenie unikalnych przedmiotów u wybranych NPC. Daje to możliwość zdobycia legendarnych rzeczy dostępnych wyłącznie poprzez tworzenie ich samodzielnie. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Bazy zapewniają bezpieczne miejsce na Twoje przedmioty: • Możliwość ich zakupu za walutę premium lub zdobycia za punkty gry – dbamy, aby nie promować P2W • Rozbudowany system logów oraz szczegółowe nadawanie uprawnień – możesz przydzielać różne poziomy dostępu poszczególnym graczom, np. dostęp do konkretnego pokoju lub tylko do małego namiotu. W ten sposób poznasz ich, zanim dasz pełny dostęp do bazy. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Na mapie pojawiają się rozbite pojazdy, które można przeszukać i zdobyć cenne łupy. Crashe wyróżniają się dużą ilością unoszącego się dymu, co ułatwia ich znalezienie. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Ekwipunek został zaprojektowany tak, aby był prosty w obsłudze, a jednocześnie oferował przydatne funkcje: • Podgląd zdjęcia i opisu przedmiotu • Możliwość szybkiego zebrania całej amunicji jednym przyciskiem • Opcja wyrzucania kilku przedmiotów naraz ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Z uwagi na spadek popularności MTA:DayZ na polskiej scenie oraz chęć utrzymania wysokiej aktywności i zdrowego PvP, zdecydowaliśmy się czasowo zablokować dostęp do miasta San Fierro. Na tym obszarze znajduje się trująca chmura, która eliminuje gracza w kilka sekund. Jeśli serwer będzie się dobrze rozwijał, planujemy w przyszłości wprowadzić sprzęt umożliwiający bezpieczne wejście i ewentualne odblokowanie tej lokacji. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Pojazd bez stali Pojazd ze stalą Została dodana możliwość montażu stali w pojeździe, która zwiększa jego odporność oraz zapewnia m.in. ochronę przed przebiciem opon. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ To nie wszystko — nie chcemy w zapowiedzi ujawniać wszystkich szczegółów, chcemy, abyście odkrywali je sami, grając na serwerze. Zapraszamy do wyczekiwania na start serwera oraz dołączenia do naszej społeczności na Discordzie: Discord Jeśli opis to dla Was za mało, zachęcamy również do obejrzenia ponad 30-minutowego filmu z serwera: Zobacz film Dziękujemy za zainteresowanie i zapraszamy do wspólnej gry!

Welcome to the forums @O-Dog. Your thread has been moved to the Resources section. The Scripting section is for scripting inquiries.

Vending Machine script inspired from the singleplayer version. Player health will be refilled a bit after each drink. It verifies the money and responds based on that. Works with every vending machine in the map. Video to explain it more: For more information, feel free to join my discord server: https://discord.gg/Nex7e6JUhe Discord account is mehdi4664

When I first started creating the script, I worked with a single ped which was mexican and indeed there was a sound being played whenever the event is triggered, I used ``playPedVoiceLine`` but then I added more different peds so the voice wouldn't match their skin tone which made me remove this function at the end.

Imagine advertising that you work with the "largest cheater groups in MTA:SA" lol

I've run out of suggestions unfortunately, if i have smth i will come back

local toggle = false local savedCursorX, savedCursorY local function restoreCursorPos() if savedCursorX and savedCursorY then local screenX, screenY = guiGetScreenSize() setCursorPosition(savedCursorX * screenX, savedCursorY * screenY) end end local function togglePanel() toggle = not toggle if toggle then showCursor(true) for i = 1, 5 do setTimer(restoreCursorPos, i * 50, 1) end else savedCursorX, savedCursorY = getCursorPosition() showCursor(false) end end bindKey("k", "down", togglePanel) Can you just try this? ı added a timer for it.

My new SpongeBob SquarePants RPG server is now live. No need to make an account as nothing saves yet, but if youd like to check it out and leave feedback please post below. I will be working on the save system soon but for now its kind of a beta build. mtasa://144.217.174.212:39504 UPDATE 6/20/2025 11:10PM CST added stats and saving

Honestly, the issues you listed are all issues that are caused by a combination of bad scripts and a bad infrastructure. There's only so much Multi Theft Auto can do if server owners don't bother to learn proper security practices and implement them. Also, anti-cheat clearly has seen updates numerous of times since 2023 (obviously they're not open about all the changes). Development is happening on a nearly daily basis with plenty of new updates coming available. The community is far from being neglected, a lot of the community is on the Discord server nowadays though. Please get your facts straight before you make such accusations.

https://www.youtube.com/live/LtNXNauoyNk Yesterday, we concluded our series of 2x2x2x2 tournaments. I want to summarize the results from the perspective of both the organizer and a witness to all the races. The registration process was extremely difficult. Honestly, I don’t remember ever struggling this much to find players. In the past, for a similar tournament, we’d get up to 15 teams registered on the first day, with 4-6 more teams signing up as reserve. Over 50 players participated in the tournament! There could have been more, but some registered teams couldn’t play. As a result, some groups had 4 teams, while others only had 2. In each subsequent round, all groups had 4 teams—two were the winners of their groups from the previous round, and the other two were the teams that placed second. This way, we could create balanced and exciting groups. Of course, the most intense matches started from the quarterfinals. The team (Pszymek + zee) lost by just 6 points to (Puffy + Kellus). There was a tiebreaker for first place between (DuXR + Confused) and (WiLL + GB + Emery), a narrow 2-point gap between (Honz + Suzuki) and (DeiN + LENZER), and this was only the quarterfinals! If you recall, the semifinals began with Chilliad maps. Sandking offroad were easier than in the second round, but the motorcycle part was not easy. That’s why I thought this round could favor teams that weren’t the group favorites—anything could happen on these maps. In the first semifinal, (Aroszparo + Mateoryt) lost to (DeiN + LENZER) by just 8 points. In the other semifinal, (DuXR + Confused) faced another tiebreaker, this time fighting (morpp + Gandras) for a spot in the finals. I’m glad this happened in the second semifinal so many players got to watch your battle. The Final Round In the finals, many spectators predicted (DeiN + LENZER) to win, but they ended up in fourth place. Happy birthday, Wenom The fight for first place was incredible—(January + BTN) and (Honz + Suzuki) were 128 points before the final round. And here, I want to thank morpp—he finished second and prevented a draw! I really didn’t want a tiebreaker for the finals. Thanks dude! I want to thank all the participants who register and played in the tournament! Huge respect to the players who knew they couldn’t beat the strong favorites but still showed up and gave it them all. With this tournament, I didn't just want to entertain the spectators watching the fails on Chiliad maps—I also wanted to see how active the community could be. I hope many of you had fun and enjoyed yourselves. See you later, guys! Tournament Results: 1st - MOTP (Honz + sneezy + namik) – 150 pts 2nd - IHS (BTN + January + Pepsi) – 148 pts 3rd - KAUNAS (morpp + Gandras) – 120 pts 4th - Gonshiki 4estnoy Sudbi (DeiN + LENZER + hills) – 92 pts

You can make your own functions that operate in terms of your custom concepts, and use dxDrawRectangle/dxDrawText under the hood for actual drawing. An example: function getCoords(coordSys, x, y) if coordSys then x, y = coordSys.x+x, coordSys.y+y end return x, y end function makeCoordSystem(parent, x, y) local finalX, finalY = getCoords(parent, x, y) return { x = finalX, y = finalY } end function drawText(coordSys, text, x, y) local finalX, finalY = getCoords(coordSys, x, y) dxDrawText(text, finalX, finalY) end function drawRectangle(coordSys, x, y, width, height, color) local finalX, finalY = getCoords(coordSys, x, y) dxDrawRectangle(finalX, finalY, width, height, color) end This implements a concept of coordinate system, the coordinate offset described by table with keys x and y. With this, you can do: local onScreenHud = makeCoordSystem(false, x*1200, y*120) -- false means onScreenHud will be placed in absolute coordinates function drawHUD() drawRectangle(onScreenHud, 0, 0, x*1400, y*400, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 150)) drawText(onScreenHud, "Text", x*20, y*10) end Since makeCoordSystem has parent as first argument, even coordinate systems themselves can be positioned with respect to other coordinate systems: local someInnerHud = makeCoordSystem(onScreenHud, x*20, x*40) function drawInnerHUD() drawText(someInnerHud, "Text in the inner HUD", x*20, y*10) end It's all about coming up with the right abstractions. As an example, you could modify this to add width and height properties to coordinate systems, and use them in calculations so you wouldn't have to write x* and y* everywhere.

You can save your coordinates to the variables, and the use them to build text. Like: local rectangleStartX = x*1200 local rectangleWidth = x*1400 dxDrawText(rectangleStartX + rectangleWidth + 10, etc...) But i'm not sure right now about your coordinates, because "width" for dxDrawRectangle - it's not the endpoint, if wiki is right And then code will be more easy, because for width you can use just "200". As for take coordinates from rectangle - well, looks like it can't be done in MTA. P.S. I'm not good in UI scripting, just trying to help with simple logic.

Não oferecemos suporte para scripts de terceiros, lamento. Entre em contato com o autor do resource e peça uma correção. Além disso, a maioria dos elementos do HUD estão com tamanho e posição fixa, o que dará alteração em resoluções diferentes. Sobre esse problema de distorção, isso acontece por uma questão de proporção (aspect ratio) e não de resolução. Como ele foi feito na resolução 1600 x 900 (proporção 16:9), isso significa que qualquer resolução que esteja nessa mesma proporção irá funcionar normalmente (1280 x 720 também é proporção 16:9, por isso que funciona normalmente nele também). Porém a resolução 800 x 600 tem proporção 4:3, ela é mais quadrada. O que causa distorção no HUD mesmo usando posições e tamanhos relativos. Para corrigir isso, existe a função DxSetAspectRatioAdjustmentEnabled que deve ser chamada dentro da função do onClientRender e antes das linhas do dxDraw.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm assuming all you're wanting here is that when the player hits the hunter then he gets the hunter bonus ? If this is the case then the only issue with your code is that in your getHunter function, you need to change addWinnerBonus to addHunterBonus

Introduction Modding is a term used when modifying components, files and what not, in this particular case modifying game installation files in order to achieve unique results not seen in the vanilla game. GTA:SA is 3D era, where modding the game requires special 3D packages. Older games such as GTA:II uses a 2D engine, which means that modding the game was commonly done with image editing applications. We will cover some aspects of modding game textures and models. This guide intends on introducing those inexperienced with modding and 3D as a whole, on how to obtain 3D software and their recommended tools. It also introduces ways to import and export models, basic workflows for 3ds Max, texturing and creating models. TOC 3D packages, helpful tools and how to obtain them Extracting game assets How each type of game model works Limitations - MTA vs GTA Working with 3ds Max Texturing a game-ready cube 3D packages, helpful tools and how to obtain them There are various applications being used for modding. Although some has more tools available, there really isn't one that tops the others. In this section there'll be lists of a few 3D packages and tools used for modding. 3ds Max, arguably the most used program with the greatest amount of third-party plugins and scripts for various games. For GTA:SA, this program is favored by many modders due to it having 3rd party scripts for dealing with animations, collisions, lighting, modeling etcetera. There isn't much that 3ds Max can't, that other programs can, when it comes to GTA:SA modding. Although this can be expensive to run on a longer term, there are education licenses available which last for 3 years. These do not allow commercial use, and is marked purely as "educational use only". View more. Kam's (vanilla) max scripts, the first official script package for modding GTA:SA with 3ds Max. After the release of his scripts, a lot of others has developed scripts of their own, some of which are more optimized and less prone to issues. Even despite Kam's scripts having overseen issues, it is still to this day widely used for tasks such as, but not limited to; IPL map generation and import, collisions, animations, characters, vehicles, environment modeling. View more. Kam's (2018) max scripts, a modified version of Kam's vanilla scripts for 3ds Max. Notable features that were added are; DK22pac's Normal map plugin support, reflection map support for environment models, 2dfx panel for lights such as aircraft lights or street lamps. View more. The Hero's RW importer/exporter, a modern plugin that works extremely well with vehicles and environment models. Due to its simplified layout it is very easy to get used to. It's far recommended to use for vehicle model import/export due to its quality handling and materials, which are based on RW formats (renderware, the engine GTA:SA runs off). With the plugin using different model material formats from Kam's, it comes with a maxscript to convert scene materials from GTA_MTL to RW_MTL and vice versa, if needed by the modeler. View more. Deniska's max scripts, a pack for various types of GTA:SA modding, some features are obsolete for MTA users due to IPL and IDE modification required. Although, the pack does come with a few tools that may be useful to MTA modders, such as prelight tools to set the vertex colors and illumination to fixed values. View more. DexX's 2dfx export script, a standalone 3ds Max script that exports Omni and Dummy informations to .sae file formats, to then be added to the .dff using RW analyzer. With this script it's possible to integrate lights and particles into custom models, e.g flashing aircraft lights, street lights, fire and smoke, etcetera. With the release of Kam's 2018 scripts, this script is used less as using Kam's may be less work for some cases. View more. Blender 3D, a freeware (yes, completely free, no paid watermarks or any limitations), not as favored by modders throughout the years until recently, where a developer has released his script 'DragonFF' on GTAforums. Although it is WIP, modders has already binned 3ds Max and moved permanently to Blender. Although Blender is free, it actually combines several programs into one, allowing a Blender user to sculpt, paint, do lighting, professional rendering and modeling in one. A recent update in 2019 changes the RMB selection to LMB and UI among other things, making for a potential alternative to 3ds Max. View more (Blender). View more (Blender GTA script) Zmodeler, not as commonly used as the aforementioned programs, although it is being used very frequently by modders in various games, most notably for GTA:games. It does not have support for skinned characters, although it is being commonly used for vehicles, and sometimes environment modeling as well. This is a fairly inexpensive solution, but lacks tools for more broad modding. View more. Sketchup, a 3D application that focuses on architecture. For modding, it is a rather uncommon, though has a free and paid version and can be used for seemingly OK modeling. It does not have access to any 3rd party scripts for GTA:SA, hence its only use is modeling and then exporting model files to then import into 3ds Max or Blender. View more. Photoshop, mainly used for graphic design, but can also produce 3D models, video, GIF and textures for assets. Photoshop is the most favored by modders in regards to working with textures e.g paintjobs and retexturing. Although there are alternative image editors in the market, Photoshop definitely hits the top in terms of usable scripts (user-customized scripts as well) and ease of workflow. View more. DFF Viewer, a 3D graphics engine that is used for visualising GTA:SA models and supports .DFF and .TGA formats. Only single dff's can be loaded at a time. Though this is rarely used by those who has access to 3ds Max and Blender, it is commonly used for troubleshooting/testing work that involves retexturing a model e.g changing the clothing textures of a character. This program is entirely free and available from various GTA modding sites. View more. TXD Workshop, a texture dictionary editor that has been around for years, only since recent years to be succeeded by Magic TXD. Though TXD Workshop may not be the best for setting up TXD files, it has a built-in IMG archive editor, allowing one to browse all of the contents of gta3.img. View more. MagicTXD, a new texture dictionary editor with features for mass exporting .TXD contents from folders into image subfolders, texture compression, mipmaps, resizing textures etcetera. This is broadly used for .txd files and almost took over TXD workshop when it comes to working with texture dictionaries. View more. RW Analyze, a multi-use program with notable features being; ability to lock/unlock game files, add data to game models e.g 2dfx and vertex colors information extracted from other DFF files. View more. Extracting game assets In order to start modding GTA, access to the files is required. The files in question are commonly found in parent files that require some sort of program to open. In this case, TXD Workshop or any IMG editor and optionally Magic TXD for later on will work just fine. The below steps shows one way to extract all models and their texture dictionaries. For IMG editors (e.g Alci's IMG Editor): Open the editor. Under File, select Open. Find gta3.IMG stored in GTA SA directory\models. Highlight the first file in the list, then scroll down to the very bottom and SHIFT+LMB click the file on the bottom. This highlights every file in GTA3.IMG. Right click the list of files and select Export. On the popup window, find and select, or create a new folder on desktop called GTA SA ASSETS. Click enter to proceed. ((For cases where specific files are wanted, use the search field to find the necessary files and export them individually)) For TXD Workshop users: Open TXD Workshop. In the toolbar it says Open IMG. Click this, then find and select gta3.IMG stored in GTA SA directory\models. Highlight the first file in the list, then scroll down to the very bottom and SHIFT+LMB click the file on the bottom. This highlights every file in GTA3.IMG. Right click the list of files, select Extract. On the window, find and select, or create a new folder on desktop called GTA SA ASSETS. Click enter to proceed. ((For cases where specific files are wanted, use the search field to find the necessary files)) Now the folder GTA SA ASSETS contains nearly every .dff, .col, .txd and so on used by the game. Assuming one would like having all of the textures in PNG, DDS, TGA or any other common image format, they may follow the below steps using Magic TXD. Inside GTA SA ASSETS create a new folder named IMAGES. Open any .txd file found in GTA SA ASSETS using Magic TXD. Navigate to the toolbar. On Tools, click Mass export. Export settings are as following. Game root = root folder containing TXD's Output root = folder where images goes Image format = self explanatory With texture names only = exports images directly to folder and duplicate named ones gets replaced by one another Pre-pended with TXD name = exports images with TXD prefix In separate folders = makes new folder(s) for every TXD's contents Hit export. This process may take some time. Note that this process is the same for other .IMG archives such as player.img. There are also .txd and .dff files elsewhere, such as \models\generic\generic.txd, which is the vehicle shared texture dictionary file. How each type of game model works Models used on GTA SA uses different rendering techniques and data hierarchy than others. This section will introduce the features that some models has that others don't. Vehicles: Vehicle model components utilises hierarchies, where each component is linked to a dummy (helper) and each dummy is linked to parent dummies e.g chassis_dummy, for them to be registered in the hierarchy. In order for vehicles to not look flat or cartoon, a few steps are made in the model; Diffuse material is given a grunge texture or AO map, this helps telling the depth of the vehicle as well as giving it a feel of realism, so it isn't just clean. A specular lighting image is applied to the vehicle surface material, giving it a fake shine when looking from certain angles. If the vehicle has hard edges (smoothing), this image can increase the visibility of the normals, retaining its original look rather than being flat without visible difference in geometry. An environment (ENV) map is applied to the vehicle surface material, producing a fake reflection that is animated horizontally as the vehicle travels. Vehicles also has a lot of hardcoded features such as headlights, brake lights, emissive lights, taxi/aircraft lights, rotatable components and dynamic collisions for special vehicles like Forklift. Vehicles are also the only dff models that uses baked collisions, which means they are stored in the .dff itself. Below is a detailed hierarchy used for cars, and special components used by a number of vehicles (click the spoiler). Skin characters: Ped skin characters uses bones (dummy objects) that are connected to each other and linked to the character model. These bones are not visible in-game. In order for the bones to know what part of the 3D model they're responsible for, the skin needs to be rigged. Character rigging for GTA:SA is done by applying weigh on vertices. Using heatmap display, colors go through blue-red, low-high respectively. Values go from 0 to 100. If the value is 0, it means that the vertex is not used for any bone. This can cause issues. If the value is < 100, it means that the vertex is used for multiple bones. This results in smooth animations ingame, as the 3D model transitions smoothly through each bone. If the value is 100, it means that the vertex is only responsible for one bone. Skin rigging is generally something that is being avoided by modelers and makes Skin modeling the most difficult on GTA. Bones are as shown: CJ character: Carl Johnson's 3D model is split into several pieces in order to be compatible with the clothing script used to let the player customize CJ. These models uses a function known as multiclump to support 3 meshes per dff; normal, ripped and fat. This is for CJ's health stats to physically show in-game. Other than multiclump and additional bones, modding CJ skin is essentially the same as any other ped skin. Map environment: World objects .dff contains only single models, though they do support omni and dummy objects for 2d effects. These types of models uses Vertex Colors/Face Colors. This requires the modeler to paint colors onto the model which is then stored in the vertex colors channel (daytime) and vertex illumination channel (nighttime). Although uncommonly used by R*, these models do support reflection maps like vehicles use. Goldfish's modified version of Kam's scripts is excellent for exporting with reflection maps. GTA SA utilises multiple collision archives (.col) for every IPL district, being responsible for all of the world objects' collisions. However, on MTA, collision archives are not supported, so custom collision files are single models per .col. Not every object uses collisions though, some merely has their bounding space. These objects can not be selected with MTA map editor, thus requires additional scripting or modding. Limitations - MTA vs GTA Speaking of native support, MTA currently is behind in several places. Notable features that aren't available on MTA, but on GTA are as following. Item Placement (IPL) - another type of mapping file, but contains a lot more functions such as zones for real-time reflections as seen in interiors. Item definition (IDE) - a file used to but not exclusively, define settings for models, enabling alpha flags, disabling backface cull, enable breakable effect and much more. Limit adjuster - a rework of the game that allows for adding more ID's and bypass common limits. This however is being developed by one of MTA's contributors. There are various limitations such as polys per model, max dimensions for models and collisions, (very) strict size limits for collisions and CPU usage that can easily cause issues for modders. Not to mention the majority of the game data files which most MTA servers likes to force original, else the player won't be able to connect. These limits all has potential solutions being developed as with the limit adjuster. Working with 3ds Max As described above, 3ds Max is without a doubt the most common program for GTA modding. It's also used by professionals within architecture and visualisation and film industry. What's amazing about this program is that whatever is created in 3ds Max can ultimately be added to the game. A modeler made a square - it can get added right away, no adjustments required. That's the charm of 3ds Max. There's no need for additional tools to process the model for it to be compatible with GTA. It is also the primary program that Rockstar's developers used for creating the environment in GTA:SA. At a first glance, the program may seem rather intimidating. The main functions of the program that a beginner should be aware of are listed below. Shows the default home screen with 4 viewports. Left, Top, Front and Perspective. The 3 side ones are Orthographic viewports while Perspective is in regular mode. It is also the most common one to use. Highlighting a viewport and pressing (left)ALT W will full screen the viewport. In order to rotate camera view, the user must click and drag the square in the upper right corner. Its face also tells which side the camera is viewing e.g Top. If one wishes to see viewport statistics such as polygons per model, vertex amount etc., clicking: [ + ] icon on the upper left side > Configure Viewport > Statistics > Total + Selection > Apply > Clicking 7 on keyboard shows the statistics. This feature is extremely useful for modelers who are limited in polygons per model, or simply wants to see how many polys a car is. Common keyboard shortcuts F1: Opens Autodesk help section in new browser tab F2: Displays blue overlay on models F3: Displays models in wireframe F4: Displays edges on models F10: Opens render setup 9: Shows viewport statistics Q: Select objects W: Select and move E: Rotate R: Select and (mode) scale U: Orthographic viewport mode P: Perspective viewport mode A: Toggle angle snap S: Enable snap D: Disable viewport G: Enable/disable grid J: Display bounding edges LALT X: Xray mode for model Ctrl Z: Undo action Ctrl Y: Redo action In a heavy program like 3ds Max, being able to change preferences to one's likings is important. Do so by going to Customize > Preferences. Performance, file settings and such can all be configured in there. For GTA:SA modding, knowing how to subdivide and add geometry to existing GTA models is very important. Below is a list with actions that may come in handy. No-brainer: Editable Mesh is inferior to Editable Poly. Use Poly, poly, poly, poly... Editable mesh modeling Vertex selection mode Edit Geometry section Attach: attaches another model in the scene to the selected mesh Chamfer: chamfer selection of vertices; creates additional geometry Weld: merges vertices together within a specified threshold Surface Properties section Edit Vertex Colors: sets the color and illumination of selected vertices Edge selection mode Edit Geometry section Divide: divides an edge, adding a new vertex where it was divided/split Extrude: create and pull a new face out from existing edges (keyboard shortcut: LSHIFT + LMB-drag) Face selection mode Edit Geometry section Divide: creates a new face Extrude: pulls the select face(s) outwards or inwards and creates new geometry off that Bevel: essentially an Extrude followed by scaling of the face Surface Properties section Flip: flips a face 180 degrees Smoothing groups: defines the smoothing of the model. Autosmooth is in many cases OK, but may not fulfil everyone's expectations Editable poly modeling Vertex selection mode Edit Vertices Connect: selecting 4 verts on a box side and using this function will triangulate the side. Edge selection mode Edit Edges Connect: creates an edge between the selected edges, as in a bridge between two cliff sides (use the 'Settings' to choose between multiple or one edge on creation) Polygon selection mode Edit Polygons Inset: places a new polygon inside the selected, allowing to be scaled Bridge: connects two opposing polygons by creating a bridge between them (can be used for walls and gaps) Edit Geometry Slice Plane: enables the user to create a perfect cut on the model, can be rotated by degrees Rendering scene Modelers working on projects for companies or friends might want to show what they've accomplished, but a regular screenshot may not suffice. Talking of a screenshot like this: Instead, the modeler might want to show the scene with textures. Perhaps more than just textures - lighting? reflections? transparency? - this is where 3D rendering comes into play, and can be done by simply pressing SHIFT + Q on the keyboard. This can also by default use alpha channel. However, the quality could improve. The quality of the render depends on the scene assets (models, materials, lights), the Renderer and its settings. By default, 3ds Max utilises Scanline Renderer. This is not a production quality render, but rather meant for test shots and demos. Though the quality isn't great, it's still possible to produce seemingly interesting renders. The following render took merely 8 seconds. Using 3ds Max allows modders to bring GTA:SA into modern graphics, easily comparable or even superior to ENB's. It also enables modelers to share visualizations of their models to help the customer understand how it could potentially look for their game. In the above render, a Skylight is used with Scanline Renderer. A very basic render, though interesting and contains lots of depth. In order to replicate this result, below are the steps to follow: On the Create panel, where one would normally find boxes and spheres, click the toolbar Lights. Where it says Photometric change that to Standard. Click the Skylight and place it in the 3ds Max scene. Settings for Skylight explained Multiplier: intensity of the light Sky color: the color of the light Cast shadows: enable to produce shadows, though this is more of an Ambient Occlusion than actual shadows Rays per sample: quality of the shadow, ideally keep at <5 for tests and 15-20 for final shots In the actual render above, a sample of 5 was used, creating grainy shadows but quick render. Backface culling was enabled to avoid slowing down the render time. Skylight is great light source and is generally used to illuminate an entire scene and not particular models. In the same Lights tab, one may find use of Omni or Free lights, which both works great. These are great point lights, which as opposed to skylight, are able to illuminate parts of the scene e.g acting as street lights. Modifiers When modeling, modifiers can come in use and save the modeler a lot of time. The following modifiers are highly suggested for beginners to know about. Bend: bends the model, effect depends on the differences in the geometry Mirror: copies the mesh and mirrors it on the other side, commonly used for vehicles using symmetrical geometry Smooth: generates and applies smoothing to the model, generally the lower values makes for higher file sizes Symmetry: essentially the same modifier as 'Mirror' Turbosmooth: Smoothens the mesh, adding geometry, uses iterations Unwrap UVW: advanced UV editing, commonly used for preparing textures for models like characters and game assets UVW map: basic UV editing, X/Y/Z projection mapping as well as spherical, box and planar mapping Vertexpaint: allows for painting colors onto vertices and faces, these colors are rendered during either ingame or night time Texturing a game-ready cube Modeling has to start somewhere. Using standard 3D primitives is a good place to start. For the purpose of this guide, a Cube will be created in 3ds Max and textured in Paint.net, a free image editing software. Video tutorial: To start off, navigate to 3ds Max's Create tab on the right hand side panel, as shown below. Shows the Create tab on the panel. For this guide, click on Box (Cube). Use LMB and click and drag the mouse in the viewport to create the cube. Now that the Cube primitive is spawned in the viewport, on the same panel that it was created from, go to Modify tab and set its dimension parameters to 5,0, 5,0, 5,0 and 1 segment for all 3. Convert the model to Editable Poly by right clicking it in the Viewport > Convert to > Editable Poly. Go into Polygon selection mode and scroll down until the following buttons are visible: With viewport selected, on the keyboard press `CTRL A` to select all faces on the cube. Now, where it says `Color`, click the bar and on `Value` set it to 100, then do the same for `Illumination` but value at 35. What this does is it sets the vertex colors so that the model won't be overexposed during day/night time. Exit polygon selection mode and on Modifier List, click that and find Unwrap UVW. This applies a modifier stacked on top of the Editable Poly mesh. Under Edit UVs click Open UV Editor. This allows the user to make changes to the UV coordinates which tells the model how textures are projected onto the model. On the editor, ensure that Polygon selection is enabled. While in the UV editor, press `CTRL A` to select all UV islands. On the top of the editor click Mapping, then Unfold Mapping.... Keep it as Walk to closest face and enable Normalize Clusters. Click OK. The result should remind the user of how a simple cardboard box in real life looks when it's yet to be folded into a box. With the model unwrapped, on the toolbar on the UV editor, click Tools > Render UVW Template. The export settings below are ideal for this particular task. If one wishes to know exact dimensions of each square, enable Seam Edges. After exporting, on the modifier stack, press Collapse to. This saves the new UV's. The width and height should be on a 1:1 ratio to avoid stretching issues. 1024x1024 is more than enough. On the rendered image window, click the Save button and find a location to save it in, name it Cube_unwrapped and use Alpha channel (optionally). Now open Paint.net and insert the image. Once happy with the result, export as cube_diffuse. Diffuse map generated with the help of a UVW template. In order to apply the texture on the model, simply drag and drop the image from file browser onto the model in the Viewport. Although the example above is not textured properly in regards to rotations, it shows what can be done by using UVW templates, and how easy it really is to produce textures for models made from scratch. The model can be directly exported as DFF. Materials are not required to be GTA or RW, they can be standard and still show ingame. Some exporters wants the model in Editable Mesh however, so converting it may be required. Thanks for reading this guide, we hope it helps and we wish you the best of luck with modelling!

In addition to the existing "Report community resources here" topic, this thread will list up the community guidelines outlining how the community should be used. Whilst these regulations cover a few popular situations, it is not to a strict rulebook—that is to say, the overarching rule is for you to be a good standing community member. Here are some criteria you should follow when sharing resources: Do not upload simple resources. These are: Vehicle/skin/weapon mods that primarily consist of DFF/TXD replacements. There are other places to share San Andreas mods. There are some exceptions, rare type of mods that, as a resource, do not work off the bat with MTA from GTA sources are allowed, such as tyre/wheel/weapon mods (aslong it's a pack), map and building, interior mods (Example: a map that consists of custom GTA objects or world parts) Resources solely based on code examples from the wiki "Useless resources": extremely simple scripts, especially one-liners Compiled resources based on a too small codebase (not worth to compile). Do not upload resources that do not do as advertised (this includes resources that are horribly broken) You are not allowed to upload resources that act solely as a publicity mirror (such as uploads with links to external websites to download the actual resource) You should not try to monetize your resources by using pay links (such as adf.ly). This can get you banned. Do not upload resources containing code you do not have the rights to (i.e, stolen code). Read the notes below for more information. The comments section is not a place to argue about resource stealing. Instead you should report said resources. Improving or fixing existing resources Although uploaded resources are made, by their author, for public download; the general rule is that you do not copy existing resources that you do not have the rights to. Then again, it may benefit the entire community if an old and abandoned resource is given new updates, which for that reason we, staff/moderators, may regularly do for some popular resources (as a form of Q&A, often for the reason of containing game-breaking bugs or being of low quality). If you want to help out like this yourself, see the question ''What do I do if I find a resource that has been abandoned?'' What do I do if I have a fix for a resource with a bug? Making small adjustments to resources and reuploading them as your own is not allowed. You need to contact the resource author so they can apply the fix and update the resource, or eventually grant you permission to do so. In some circumstances we the moderating team can patch resources if the author does not seem receptive to messages, where problems potentially affect large amounts of players/servers, or a (much downloaded) resource is of a quality detrimental to community. What do I do if I find a resource that has been abandoned? Please visit this thread if you would like to adopt a resource. If you find "fixed" resources that were not uploaded by the original author and to which the below exceptions details do not apply, then please report them (in this case, please only report newly uploaded resources after this policy's introduction date, so that old resources by inactive members are not removed). Exceptions: Re-uploading resources customized to target another gamemode/main purpose and/or using the original resource to base your edition off It can sometimes be allowed to upload modified resources if they change targetting overwhelmingly. If your re-upload is of a version (rather ''edition'') that cannot be unified with the original resource, because it has a different purpose or the changes made are converting it to a different target gamemode (for example, you use an existing adminpanel and change the buttons/functionality into a DayZ-gamemode panel). While you are not strictly required (by us) to see if the original author is inactive or will reply to you/permit it (unless included licenses say so), you will have to remove the material incase they explicitly request you to do so later on, as your resource will still be partially based off their work. Also if any original license forbids it or sets terms, you'll have to respect it and/or not do so. This exception is only valid for reasons such as the last mentioned, if due to that being the case both resources must have a different community listing. You are however required to mention and link to the original resource, and credit its authors in order to fall under this exception. Translated resources are also eligible if the same circumstances have been met. Other questions? What happens if I break the rules? (by discretion of the moderator) Depending on the situation, your content may be removed, or suspended. In addition, you may receive (temporary, in many cases) a community and/or forum ban. The regular rules about ban evading apply. All of this seems very obvious, yes, but extremely abusive behaviour on the community may result in a global ban from MTA. We are actively monitoring the community, and we apply common sense to all cases. As mentioned earlier, the absence of a rule does not mean the behaviour is allowed. How can I help? Make sure your email address on the forum and community are up to date, and if possible, establish a relationship between both your community profile and your forum profile. We will usually explain the reason for your resource being suspended in the resource log or comment section, and/or possibly over forum PM if your username is clear or we manage to link you. This helps make it easier to get in touch, and will prevent the situation where you simply re-upload the resource because you notice your resource has disappeared. We also encourage anyone who notices a resource in violation of these guidelines to click the newly added "Report" button below the description of all resources. The button will direct you to the below topic; If you want your own resource(s) deleted, or have something changed or corrected to it, you can make a post ("report" your own uploads) in the same fashion as written above, link your upload and describe your request on what needs to be done. Please note that all removal requests are subject to staff discretion, for example it's unlikely that we will delete popular resources (high download count, thus valuable to the broader community) even if the original author asks us to. Unless your license (if any, on the version you request removed) specifically states you got this power, you made a conscious decision to add your materials to the public domain by sharing it initially, and it would be near egoistic to take it away from others who are clearly finding it useful to this day. Note: Most of these regulations do also apply to Resources section release topics that may use alternate download mirrors other than community.multitheftauto.com (but will only be applied at moderator/staff discretion as not all of them can apply for those). As we do not control external hosting mirrors, the only thing we can do to enforce our regulations and demands is taking actions against the Resources section release topic and forbid placement of it, or subject it to additional requirements or changes. Additional regulations for the "Resources" subforum: - Topic title should be prefixed with either [REL], [DEMO] / [SHOW] or [SELL]. If you use the release prefix, the resource(s) that you're posting about should be publicly downloadable. If you use the demonstration prefix, then it's allowed to show off your private scripts or WIP's without any intention to publish it (or with the intention to publish it later). - If you upload resources posted in the 'Resources' section to external mirrors rather than the community page, then they must be uncompiled. We won't allow such content (compiled .luac) to be self-hosted out of security considerations. The community provides us with tools to deter malicious resources, if you come across a compiled DL on the forums then please be aware that we cannot protect your server from harm if you did use it, we kindly request you to report the topic in question instead. - Selling resources and gamemodes is only allowed in the "Resources" subforum and not in any other forum section, or on Discord, specifically in the #showroom channel (single post allowed). You're encouraged to sell only particular resources or a limited list of resources, bundled in a single topic. Bumping such topics (for the sole reason of bumping, like 'bump') is not allowed, nor is having alot of sale topics simultaneously: Moderators may judge on a case by case basis that you have too much selling activity or too much sale topics at the same time; we'd like to prevent commercial activities in this section from drowning out releases or show-offs. Anyone engaging in selling activities is doing so at their own risk, always take caution in dealing with a seller or buyer, and remember that if it seems too good to be true, it usually is. We recommend to review a member's forum reputation, activity & standing before making decisions. False deals can be either a scam or a person selling something not egilible for sale (not their work, stolen, leaked or public resources and code, etc) or unreasonable deals (qualitatively low value work for a too high price, misrepresentation of features or quality, etc), because of this we advise that if you doubt or aren't an experienced scripter, you call for the help of someone you know can tell if it's a reasonable deal and the product being sold looks good or not. We advise that you always press the seller for full source code and not compiled or otherwise protected, because you should ideally be buying the full rights to a work when you purchase it. While we cannot guarantee the safety of trading (for which reason we advise you to use common sense and precautions), we will do our best to intervene if a situation related to a scammer looking to make victims, having made victims, or of someone selling unreasonable products is brought forward to us. We kindly request you to submit a topic, post, or PM report in such situations or if you're concerned about anything. By reporting situations you allow us to prevent (scamming) incidents, eventually assist to resolve trading conflicts, or take action against scammers after the fact. Setting out to scam others is rewarded with a permanent ban, eventually a ban from all MTA services. By engaging in sale or trading activity on the MTA forums or Discord, you inherently agree to all of these terms and the fact that our decisions, arbitration, instructions and demands are final, to be judged on a case-by-case basis if we get involved.

Section Rules 1. Any fulfilled requests or discarded offers shall be reported via the report system in order to be locked and/or archived. This is mandatory, as the goal is to keep this section as clean and accurate as possible. 2.Topics must have a sufficient description of what are you offering or looking for. Eg. if you're looking for a scripter for your gamemode, you must detail what would you need the scripter for. This doesn't exactly involve giving away the whole concepts or whatever you don't want to disclose to the public, but it would be appreciated if you could include more details than just straight single line offers, such as "I need a scripter for a zombie gamemode". Whether or not the amount of detail is sufficient for the nature of your request is a subject to moderator judgement, and failing to meet criteria may result in your post being discarded. Formatting your topic In order to keep the section clean, accurate and easily viewable, it would be appreciated if you could use the following guidelines for your topic: 1. Topic titles should have the form [LF/OFFERING] Brief description [Paid/Non-Paid]. Please make the description as brief as possible here. Eg: [OFFERING] Skilled scripter [Paid] [OFFERING] Rookie modeller looking for some practice [Non-paid] [LF] Any-level scripter for a small server [Non-Paid] 2. The first post should be written in at least 2 parts: first part should contain a brief description of yourself (and/or the server or community you are from) second part should elaborate on what are you requesting/offering, once again, as detailed as you possibly can/want

Most (if not all) technical issues and crashes experienced on stable releases of MTA are somehow related to the user's PC, such as underlying OS or driver issues, bad mainentance state of the OS, viruses interfering with MTA, etcetera. In this subforum (client support) we have a range of users who are willing to offer you support, of which some have an advanced technical IT background and thus are able to dive deep into said problems, given that they have sufficient information to help you troubleshoot the underlying causal problem. MTADiag makes their job easier, by collecting a set of information that helps them get started in advising you what to do next. Client support information: (open spoiler) - also read this if you're not getting a response to your problem in a timely manner MTADiag is a small open-source console application which will: Read MTA's and GTA's install paths, and MTA's current version - if multiple versions of MTA are installed, it will ask the user to pick one to diagnose Automatically remove compatibility mode settings for GTA and MTA (except for Administrator privileges) Automatically download and launch MTA's latest patch installer Automatically generate a dxdiag log Automatically install necessary certificates for MTA Create a log file with the aforementioned paths, MTA's previous and updated version strings, the generated dxdiag log, a list of currently running processes, the contents of CEGUI.log, core.log, and logfile.txt, directory listings of the MTA, GTA, and GTA\models folders, and some other miscellaneous information which is automatically uploaded to MTA's Pastebin. Current version: 2.9.0 (January 2024) It's a little unfriendly due to the fact that it's a console app, but it will streamline client support topics by aggregating all potentially useful information for our QA and staff to help troubleshoot your issues into the first post, or potentially eliminating the need to create a new topic altogether if removing compatibility mode entries, automatically applied repairs & installing the latest nightly and the DirectX runtimes fixes the user's issue. I've added a download link to MTADiag in the MTA CRASHING? Read here first! sticky thread. Download MTADiag MTADiag is opensource, check out the repository at https://github.com/multitheftauto/mtadiag Instructions to use the tool and request support accordingly: Please download and run MTADiag and follow the instructions. Post any Pastebin URL MTADiag gives you in a new topic you'll create at https://forum.multitheftauto.com/forum/83-client/, after which support can be offered. MTADiag supports Windows XP and newer, but must be run with Administrator privileges on Windows Vista and newer. If MTADiag will not run for you, install Visual C++ 2017 runtimes and try again.
