true.. but there are 32 slots.. and I'm talking about NPCs only as an optional feature.. like, the map maker decides if he wants to put NPCs in or not.. and I think, beeing 27 players on a server that has 5 NPCs, might be more fun than playing on a server with 32 players... cuz u might even never notice those 5 players..so why not just use those slots for NPCs or sumthing?.. but i don't think bandwith would be any problem..

bummer.. I wish it was possible to make custome scripts for the peds.. like make them only do certain things.. like for example.. say u build a map, and u put a soldier in there.. I wish u could assign a soldier to guard a certain area, and if someone enters that area, the soldier goes on a killing spree, just shooting random targets.. that way it really wouldn't use much from the server's cpu and bandwith.. or like, make a spot that activates the soldier to go on a killing spree.. or something.. SOME OF THIS haaaaaaaas to be possible.. cops is maybe too much to ask.. cuz if u have 32 ppl.. u'd need 32 squads to go after each individual, now that would mess up the server's cpu and bandwith.. but maybe if u could just place ONE police squad on the whole map.. like 5 cops only... they'd have their hands full.. lol.. EDIT:: btw, like, isn't there someway to make the ped as an object on the map.. rather than a part of a temporary enviroment.. if GTA was in java (LOL) that would be possible..

yo0o I was wondering, is it possible to make NPCs work in GTA:DM?.. not peds.. but like soldiers, if u create a millitary base and u want soldiers to guard it.. or Cops.. is this possible to incoorporate at all?..

lol, not a bad idea.. but I wish the sams could be destroyed.. or can they?.. cuz that would call for some tactical work.. and that would be awsome in SA.. to make tacticts on how to get into the base.. hve some RPGs take out the sams then fly in with hunters.. ahh.. dreams... lol.. anyway.. if u could place soldiers there, like NPCs or something.. that would rule..actually, I'll post this as a suggestion..

I think an officiall MTA tournament hosted by this site would be nice.. then the winner can take a screenshot with the developers of MTA.. and enter the HOF or something.. Peace

People can prepare their own maps and play them on the release date.. that's the point dude...

about the rocket launcher bobcat thing.. does that even need to be scripted?.. I mean, all u have to do is jump on a bobcat and land in the back, then get sombedy to drive.. then get ya rocketlauncher up.. but maybe the case is, that it's not possible to jump on a back of a bobcat.. I've done it in single player tho'.. It's just real hard to stay there, lol..

I hope the person who invented Renderware gets shot. btw, does anybody know what engine Mafia ran on? Peace

hehe, my bad..

one question.. (I couldn't post on te blog site for some weird reason, it wouldn't let me log in).. anyway.. will there be several amounts of each vehicle..?.. like the hunter for example, or, especially the hunter.. lol.. cuz I remember in VC there was only ONE hunter.. which was kinda boring.. will there be more than one hunter, and more than one f-16..? that way ppl can have air wars..hehe Peace

wow.. that engine looks real nice..

honestly, if they leave out MP for GTA 4, they are just plain STUPID.. I'm talking business-wise.. cuz the GTA franchize has hit a point where it needs something NEW that actually works well.. the car modification mode that was introduced in SA was straight up HALF ASSED.. they should've made it more like NFS.. but that's R* for you.. they've never really swept me off my feet like Illusion for example (Mafia).. R* are allways one step behind.. but on to the MP part.. they where FULLY capable of making SA with a MP mode.. I mean, cmooon.. look at World of Warcraft.. the world in WoW is a gazzillion times larger than the SA map, and it still runs really good.. GFX are better.. gameplay is real nice.. R* had the means to make SA work like that.. but they didn't.. for some F***d reason.. my best guess is that they're holding back with the MP feature to GTA 4, so people have something to look forward to.. so if they leave it out of GTA 4, then..well.. I dunno.. I'll send a bomb on them.. lol.. it's so annoying.. why don't they make their games MP compatible??.. make me go crazy.. BUT.. maybe rockstar are afraid that their MP feature will suck real bad, so they're trying to avoid humiliation.. and WHAT IF the MTA team are actually hired by R*.. that way if the MTA realeases suck, nobodey can complain.. which they could if it was R* who had released the MP feautre.. just a theory.. lol.. but on the real.. SA DM looks freaking awsome.. big ups for the developers!!.. but yea.. does anyone know exactly WHY R* hasn't made their games MP compatible??.. cuz honestly, they have the means to do it.. - nøøb out EDIT: What's this RAGE engine talk?.. any refferences??
