Ancient topic locked and moved to "General MTA:VC" archive section.

The 1.1.2 version you have is MTA:SA Race, for which you'll no longer find support on this forum. We suggest using 1.0.3. Here's a thread which may assist you in placing Race pickups using MTA:SA 1.0.3's map editor.

Run GTA:SA in single player, change the resolution, and exit the game. The resolution should be properly set then.

We no longer provide support for any version MTA: Race, and suggest upgrading to MTA:SA 1.0.3 as it contains a Race gamemode and works on Windows 7.

Maybe this topic should be unstickied since there's currently no guide?

Okay then. Locked on OP's request.

Make sure all graphics acceleration is at max in dxdiag.

You must forward some ports in your router. Tell us the model number of your router and we'll help you out.

what is this i don't even

Yeah, definitely unfortunate that the game is almost completely inactive. Blame ASE going blind for that, since that killed the client's built-in server browser. I can't improve sync without the client/server source. The only thing I could do right now is to rescan the memory addresses for every synchronized variable used by the SCMs and accessed by the client and compile a list of them. If an update were to be released then the updated list could be implemented which would likely solve many random desync issues.

Moved to "Maps - Support" section.

And how, exactly, has it done that?

Locked.

Sorry, we no longer support MTA:SA Race. Upgrade to MTA:SA 1.0.3. Though if you're hellbent on playing Race perhaps somebody has a solution for you.

Sugar, use the "Report this post" button at the top right of a post rather than being an armchair mod if you feel like something's amiss.

Wait do I need to have MTA:SA Race? Like the server mode? No, I was just trying to figure out what you were trying to do; i.e. whether you're trying to actually play Race (and if it's Racemod by itself, we no longer support that; upgrade to MTA:SA 1.0.3 which has Race as a gamemode) or host a dedicated server.

It's appreciated that you are hosting GTA3:MTA server, but we do not condone piracy. I had to edit your torrent link out. Do not post links to warez on this board.

Try going to Start -> Control Panel -> System -> "Advanced" tab -> under Performance, press "Settings..." -> "Data Execution Prevention" tab -> make sure it is set to "Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only", press OK twice, restart your computer, and try launching MTA again.

Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Folder Options -> "View" tab -> uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" and press OK. Then you can rename your file to .map.

Which version of MTA are you trying to host?

Are you trying to host a Race server? Your post was rather vague. Nonetheless, which version of MTA:SA are you using?

Welcome! Hope you enjoy the project.
