sorry bad night. Proper response this time:
No, it can not for the moment. There is a GTA3:MTA 0.3b which is old and not played anymore. The team is gonna work on MTA 0.1 now which is for both GTA3 and MTA:VC so everyone can play
since there is no way to bypass it. For development the server was able to allow changeable CRC values or to disable them completly, but we decided to use only pure servers for the moment
How the hell coudl you know what was happening days before the release? You are just gessing.Before a release we do tests with people we hand pick. In the last days we test onn 50 to 60 different machines and no major bugs ever show up. We don't have a lab and we can't test every hardware/software combination.
DrDre, before making such staterments, make sure you got all the facts. 0.3b is old, verry old. It was written in Visual Basic. We don't just combine 0.3b and VC 0.2.
We start from nothing and build a new client which supports GTA3 and VC. The netcode for both will be the same. The only difference between the two is the memory adresses and some small functions. We want to combine the two so ppl who want to play both don't need to download the damn thing twice. And in this world of broadband what is a few kb?
Comparing us with KaZaA and spyware is just stupid. Where the hell did you get that STUPIF DUCKING IDEA?
SNIPER, NOW PAY ATTENTION : THERE IS NO OJNLINE GAME FOR THE PC THAT IS CHEATER FREE. PEOPLE SPEND A LOT OF TIME TRYING TO PREVENT IT, DO YOU REALLY BELEIVE THAT ONE GUY WHO HAS TO CODE AN ENTIRE MOD IS ABLE TO PREVENT ALL CHEATS, HACKS, TRAINERS ???? NO ONE CAN YOU CAN CHEAT IN EVERY GAME EVEN TETRIS OR PACMAN
look sniper, i bet once gtat 0.5 is released it will take me 5 minutes to cheat in it. you can't protect from cheaters since the cheaters are always one step ahead. all you can do is prevent the known cheats
