Look, not even a single method might work. There is always a way of evading! You need to stay realistic and take disadvantages into account! That's what I did. And you can't effectively prevent cheating, I know. But atleast it is a way of preventing it! Only not really effective! So you can't actually prevent cheating, and you can't prevent people coming back after a ban. You can make it harder for them, and that's the only thing you can do at the moment. But even these have a disadvantage, like Ace said! They can also be scaring honest players off... Makes me think of the EA DRM... (which epically failed >.<) That leaves the score to: Returning banned people: 5863142 People trying to ban them: 0 So let's wait for DP3... =/

Someone had a cookie system or something, not really a good method for bans, but might work until the cheater isn't so stupid anymore and just deletes it. Forcing to use accounts and /register is another way, but can be created over and over again. Serials are not an option. (obviously, and unfortunately...) Sending a virus to someone cheating is illegal... Boooo.... I call it justice! Preventing the cheating before seems to be the best method. Out of my experience a lot of cheaters have 250000% vehicle health when they're inside a car. You can check this and make sure this player will experience discomfort. So I don't know what kind of idea's you have got, but I don't think you'll get too far without serials...

bool triggerClientEvent ( [element triggerFor=getRootElement()], string name, element theElement, [arguments...] ) Meaning triggerClientEvent ( invisiblePlayerSource, "invincible", invisiblePlayerSource, "allowed" )

You can always try to make your own. With the logIn and addAccount function and a while of scripting you can remake a login, and edit it however you like it. I think you can then disable the original /login and /register by setting their right to default group to false in the ACL. Note: logIn doesn't have an example, but goes basically the same way as addAccount. You can ask further if you have trouble making it. You can ask here or, like Twig said, on the IRC. Believe me, it's usually a lot faster! However, don't expect it to be TOO much faster! Still kinda slow sometimes.

You mean you didN'T? You sure you read that I said NEVER? But well anyway, the port doesn't seem to be open message from the site is a bit weird... Unless you didn't open 22003 but 22004 instead. So make sure you opened 22003 and is EMPTY!

Ah ok that clears things up a bit! Thanks for the info. So that means that it brings the amouns of methods to 4. And it seems that method #4 doesn't delete things with the correct usage, so why don't we use that one eh? ^^ You might find THIS page useful, it's the accounts functions page, it contains some examples too. Just always keep in mind to use isGuestAccount to make sure you don't call setAccountData it if that's true... It would be disastrous... ^^

In MTA's case it's recommended to use the in-built accounts system. Everything relies on it in MTA. Then you'd need setAccountData to save anything, right? But didn't that delete accounts.xml? I know this should be fixed in DP3 in whatever function this was the problem, but I just wanted to give some advice for DP2 for now.

NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER fill in serverip parameter! That helps?

Serverport: UDP (22006) HTTP: TCP (22006) ASE: UDP (22129) If I remember it right, you could set a port to "Any" instead of UDP or TCP... Then it would portforward both. Otherwise, just try something to let 22006 allow TCP AND UDP.

Then you're trying to install either DP2 or DP2.1. You can get the latest version (DP 2.3) HERE. DP 2.3 doesn't have serials and usernames, so it's much easier to install. Server owners are not always happy with it, but still you can atleast play!

Hey scar, you wanted to become a talented scripter, just try something out of it! Script a small button or anything. If you need help there are enough places too ask too! If you do nothing, you'll never make it to being a great scripter!

All is right, but 1 thing is wrong! 22006 is your server AND HTTP port. Now if we look in the mtaserver.conf file, we can see that serverport=UDP, but HTTP port is TCP! You only opened 22006 as an UDP port, and thus only the serverport is allowed through. This might not be the problem, but would still be WELL worth trying.

That was to answer this question: So still that cookie system HELPS logging in, but isn't an login/register script or an example... So anyway, do you want an XML OR SQL OR MySQL OR that we just pick our favorite? Making 3 examples is a bit stupid you know... =/

Hmmm... I don't know if that's possible... You might want to check setVehicleTurnVelocity, but I don't know if it will set the wheel direction or the velocity... =/

I want /login and /register , too. This is a list with what i want : 1.Login GUI - Username : ........ - Password : ........ 2. /login ; /register 3. ...and the script , i want to save the dates... Yes but what I meant is that /login and /register are ALREADY IN MTA... So anyway, you want an example for XML, SQL or MySQL? And note that they will be examples, not we-give-you-the-script-you-need...

@LordAzamth Simple. You don't login for nothing! ^^ Because if you click on the login button, it'll look if the username exists and the password is correct. If it is, you're identified as the owner of that account. Now, you can use cookies, but it can become a mess sometimes... The beauty of SQL is that it's stored in tables! So like... Username: Password: Money: Someone hello 15 Someoneelse someotherpass 15000000 And it's just a lot better to see everything! The only problem... Well... You need an SQL browser to look in the database... EDIT: Argh... Stupid spacebardeletion... These tabs will hopefully do it...

It's just how you want it. You can use XML, SQL and MySQL. You can do it any way you prefer. In case of an account system it's usually recommended to use SQL or, if you have an external website, MySQL. XML is the easiest way, but "not the best optimised"... ("" because I don't know, but the difference isn't THAT big. Atleast, XML is fast enough with the right usage) You can do some VERY basic XML by learning how XML works. More about that here: http://development.mtasa.com/index.php?title=Xmlnode Might you really want to make it good, and I even think SQL is simpler at SOME points, then check here: http://development.mtasa.com/index.php? ... reateTable -- You might also need basic SQL tutorials to use this though. You can choose to do things any way you want, as long as it works. (and is safe)

Link? Couldn't find it... Latest post was one from 2007 where someone was asking when DM would release... -.-

Ehm... Aren't the included /login and /register commands good enough? Or you want a GUI or something? Can you please give us some more info on what you exactly want?

..... Ehm... This is the MTA:SAN ANDREAS DEATHMATCH section... So I don't understand what you're talking about GTA 3... =/

It's actually something good to compare SA-MP and MTA. They both just have different pros and cons. (/me is thinking of ANY SA-MP pros... ) And comparing them is the way to knowing what's the best one to you. Eventually, MTA will be much better anyway I guess, but it's always your own opinion.

First: No dual/tripple/QUAD posts... -.- EDIT YOUR POSTS OR DON'T ADD ANYTHING AT ALL... Second: You need to pay? What guide have you been looking in... Static internet IP guide or something? Third: Have you forwarded them to a STATIC LOCAL IP?

Some are, others might give you a hard time! -The account page, it contains some quite difficult points... You sure you want to try it in 3 hours? -Cars, spawning cars across a single city takes enough time if you want plenty of them! I REALLY want to see you this one in 3 hours! -Property, let's see if you can make that from scratch in less than 3 hours... Somewhat bug-free and everything! ^^ -Stunts, how you want to add insane stunts? Including jumps especially! And, ofcourse, IN LESS THAN 3 HOURS!!! I even give you 3 hours PER POINT, since most are not to be finished inside those 3 hours anyway, so everybody (except you ) wins! Hehehe, just kidding. But overall it might look simple, still there are quite some high demands in there if you watch closely! Don't think you can submit a simple edit of the Broph resource! ((And ofcourse the things Mr.Hankey said, I already typed this post and his appeared in front of mine. And so the things under this line are typed after.)) But well let's indeed get back on topic: Yes ok, €100! The $ still isn't worth THAT much compared to the € anyway! €1 is still about between $1.30 and $1.50... So that could mean much more profit ofcourse! ^^ But anyway, let's make a list of anyone competing in this contest, shall we? And if there aren't enough, then well there can be people working together sharing the $350 I first proposed or any other price together. (if they corporate, ofcourse!) So list of contestors: -REDSPIKE TEAM -=FAS=Shigawire (Just added him because I still want to see him making it in 3 hours! ^^) Other volunteers: -eXo|Mr.Hankey Just the on-topic posts in short. ^^

The money for the first winner might be $200? Maybe a bit high, but if it's good it might be worth it I guess. Second price about $100 Third price about $50. Total cost: $350. What have you got? 3 Freeroam gamemodes which should be quite good. Anyway, I'm not a freeroam expert, so it's not very likely I'll be participating. (busy on some other stuff anyway) Let's hope you'll get a nice gamemode!
