does the time to defrag your hd depend on your cpu speed/hd capacity? or what? just wondering... i'd guess it's be cpu speed and hd capacity...

the reason why cars blow up and re-appear is because of this situation: player 1 is shooting a moving vehicle, driven by player 2 player 2's vehicle is always moving ahead than what player 1 is seeing because its not in sync, lag, ping creates this, is player 1 ping is 50, player 2 ping is 75, there is a 125ms difference, player 1 is viewing player 2 125ms before where it actually stands player 1 is shooting the vehicle, but on the screen of player 2, he is 125ms ahead, he sees the bullets flying behind him because hes ahead, on player 1's screen the car is on fire and blows up, player 2 however is still driving because bullets missed him, and are flying behind him vehicle blows up, mta updates his position, re-creates the vehicle and player 1 realizes the car didnt really blow up its all in sync, lag creates this problem

ETA = ESTIMATED time arrival its an estime, not exact you could say ETA - 1 - 3 months so we kno its not like 6 months, or the next couple of days

I have an idea so people will stop asking for release dates... Make a small section that states ETA - 1 month or something like that... I'm sure the team has a goal on when to get the next release out, right? Just an idea, probably will get locked, but it'll stop people from asking, and stop people from gettin pissed off when they ask...

wow i finally kno my answer anytime i join a server ppl automatically accuse me of cheating lol my name is bLo0dD, NOT BLooD

i dunno much on how mta is programmed, but maybe u can program it into the kill shot, the last spot the character was shot, that limb could fly off edit: pretty sure its doable, cuz the animations are there for the limbs

i believe its totally ok, the bottom line is that its realism, whens the last time u got hit by a car, flew 30 feet and survived? atleast sometimes u get run over u dont die, thats real too, ppl have been hit by cars and survive, which does happen in gta3, if u fly far enuf, u'll die, or get squished, or whatever, i think its realism, and its ok!! EDIT: it also teaches u to watch yo back!! after all, it is deathmatch, learn to dodge it!!

i think 0.4.1 has a new bug, my time is never synced to the servers, in gta3, all turismo races are never synced, so i can never race, and weather isnt being changed... is there a solution? or is this a new bug?

i remember back when vice city was just being started, everyone wondered what it would be called, and i still played gta1 once in a while, mp wit a friend for jokez, and i predicted that it'd be called vice city at that point, i knew that the next one would be san andreas look at gta1!! those are the cities i sat back and laughed while reading posts, news articles, ppl guessing what the name would be whole time im sittin here "it'll be san andreas" after SA, i predict a GTA 4

I get them for almost half price, PM me and let me know if anyone's interested!

I noticed in the pics on the news page that all skins are just the GTA3 guy, will we expect more skins for the GTA3 MTA in the release, or maybe future releases?

I have a debate, I've been on cable, (ROGERS), for awhile now, and I'm thinking of switching to SYMPATICO HIGH SPEED ADSL, is it worth the change? Considering I use my internet for e-mail, online gaming (mta, cs, nfs:u) also networking, downloading, uploading... Whats your opinion?

so nice for eachother whyu guys hatin on me cuz of wut i wrote im not sayin they're takin long im jus sayin give us some updates or something cuz based on the website, other ppl must think that it died out considered they're are not even screenshots for upcoming release, or even a feature lsit, or something to tell us what they have been working on i kno mta works really hard, i jus want to kno what they've been upto the last couple months, thats all all u ppl here on mta forums dont even read wut ppl say and flame ppl for no reason, you ppl need a life (not naming any names, NoReason) for others who understood wut i wuz trying to say, thx for having a life

Cmon modders, i kno you guys work hard, but everytime i check this website (mtavc.com) i see nothing new, always the old stuff, lets get an update patch or play something different, its getting played out! hardly anyone is on ASE now! we need an update!

found out the address of the guy who tried selling mta on ebay 56 Acre Lane Brixton SW2 anyone who livez there, beat the f*ck outta him, tryin to make money off the hard work that the mta team put into mtavc

yeah its a great job on the stunt mode, i enjoy it... the ONLY crash i have is the passenger one, which i think is an improvement... great job hope you get the little bugs out... good luck on your next release ps. is there an easy fix for the passenger crash?

me and my friends are all having this problem where if you are a passenger, and you try to exit the vehicle, your vice city crashed anyone else have this problem or a solution to this?

any updates on the website prgorwess?

ur host sux get a host where can we actually download and not sit there reading descriptions all day

i kno we cant change handling and stuff liek that, but can we still change our models? so our cars LOOK different but act the same?

@_Ransom_ i didnt mean email me the file dumbass, i meant email me and let me kno that someone will be doing it and so i can contact them later so i can host it... has anyone recorded it? i'll be happy to host it for everyone

wut is 1pm pst in eastern time?

on the mainpage it says somefin bout mta being interviewed on a tv broadcast, whoever can get that channel, can they record it and rip it onto an mpeg so we can all see it? i'll host it for whoever can do that... email me insanityride@hotmail or pm me

my suggestion, if u have a tight budget, is not a geforce 5900, thats not a tight budget, thats the most expensive card on the market... i would say u should get a geforce4 ti4200 8xagp, or a ti4800 these cards have great stability, great fps gameplay, im sure anyone with a 2500 barton core would be glad to run this on their pc...

its not the netode really... itz more of lag vs. physics of vice when ur playin mta, for example, u see a person on a motorcycle, they drive by u, u shoot it and blow up the back tire, on their screen, because of lag, 200ms later they see u shooting far behind them, its because of lag, so in effect, on ur screen, the tire is blown, but is riding as if it were never shot before, on the othe rplayers screen, u totally missed ur shots to the bike, and nothing happened to him at all its jus about lag... hopefully in 0.2 they'll be less lag... im pretty sure it'll be improved, these mta guyz are workin hard and are good at wut they do EDIT: hope that answers ur question or helps u in any way... when u wanna shoot someone on a bike or car passing by, try to shoot a little ahead of them so the lag catches on and actually shoots them
