life isnt fair, get over it. besides, if you really have a problem with it, you can mod your own files too, its not like they have special abilities or programs you dont. everyone has notepad (handling, .ipl, .ide)...

my fav is the vice city crusader. no team. no armor. no real special weapon. no regenerating health. the perfect fair-fight guy. everyone else is a pussy. cops are good for teampplay though, mexicans kill each other way to much. robbers are just stupid. every little wannabe-thug that comes on plays as a robber, its pathetic. they should be removed, along with the sailors. actually, the teams need a serious overhaul, its way too unbalanced.

rofl, "you violated the EULA".... clearly you guys dont read the manuals that come with games (even warez copies come with legalities in the readme files). i have. if your concerned about the EULA, check the manual. its illegal to "reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the software or accompying materials." there's a $100,000 fine PER violation, if R* so chooses to act on it. the mod itself technically is illegal, and your worried about the mta team being pissed cause you changed a cop skin? what a joke. violated the eula........lmao......

yea, sure, i have a HUGE advantage now, those extra ramps on the map will make me unstoppable! considering mta itself is essentially one big cheat, you guys sure have a funny view against OTHER things modfying the game. the only things that should really be frowned upon are those cheats that specifically give others an advantage, like health or weapons pickups, to name a couple. "mods", map mods, and car mods, are NOT cheating. they're mods. IMO, the very least you can do is give an option for disabling the crc check (from the server side of course) in all game modes, let the admins decide whats allowed and what isnt.

@ poke, says you, i want my own cars ingame. or atleast my carcols-compatible patriot. that green is sickly. @ghettofab, congrats, you got picked up by a cheater. its not possible to DRIVE on water w/out a trainer, unless he had a map mod like 2 inches above the water...

i hope you get cheaters on every major ISP, and end up with near empty servers. no sarcasm or joking, i was serious, and its fully possible (mac adress).

i dont think thats possible or easy.... cmon, dont jump to macaddress... if u c my request list, the #1 request i want is wildcard support, for isp banning ISP banning, imo, is kinda stupid. youll eliminate so many more ppl than you need to, and piss off alot of ppl who arent cheating, since they cant play on your server now. No, ban by HD serial number. how many ppl will REALLY swap out their drives to play mta?

haha, im usually one of those ppl taking out groups with the blades its not ALL i do, but it is funny nonetheless. that should teach you to stand out in the open. perhaps youd like to disable the damage cars does to ppl when you back over them 20-30 times too... its part of the game, live with it. dont like being bladed to death, dont stand in the open. the part about exiting the chopper sucks though.

i dont know about the minigun, which actually could go imo, but the rockets don't auto-aim. in fact it can take some skill to get the rockets to hit exactly where you want if your moving at a good clip...

there's 2 sparrows, one does indeed have weapons, but i forget if it was the one that was in 0.1 or not.

i bet you make alot of friends that way. especially cops...

Not to go off topic, but im interested in this mod, and have not heard of it before. could you provide me with a link to it? Also, while more than one chopper with guns is cool, do be wary if they team up, hehe

i turn everything off when playing mta. i would have thought that was a no brainer, more apps running = slower performance...

nono, when you get kicked, you get a message saying you been kicked, hehe, trust me.... if you want a tip, dont flame clans on their own servers >_<

if they (mta) wanted, i could alter the hunter, to have additional doors and another seat, so suupport more players. wouldnt be too hard.

well then what's the point? the rockets are what make the hunter special (i dont use the minigun much, if at all). w/o rockets, i say just take the thing outta the game entirely, and add another maverick or somthing. Vote YES on propos....er, to enable ALL weapons! at full capacity!

didnt you post that somehwere else? for the cop car thing, and i did this myself this morning with the patriot, sometimes not all the vehicles placements are synched. ie, he can have the cop car in his game, but the game didnt synch it for you until he got back in it, when mta updates its position in your game, making it appear seemingly out of nowhere. its possible he was using a trainer, but my explanation is more plausible. no, training is this morning when i saw a guy FLYING an ANGEL!!! a flying fucking motorcycle. i didnt get a screen, i consider it a lost opportunity...

yea, i understand that. but even one time per crash isnt alot. my game crashed about 6 times an hour, on average. that 6 presses of f10 in 60 minutes. this post involved more keypressing than a weeks's worth of crashing. but w/e, ppl do strange things...

...writing code....so you dont have to press a key once........you have to be the most lazy / forgetful people in the world... though i agree it should be enabled on startup.

actually, i have this problem too, ever since i first started playing .2, the only colors ive ever seen are maroon and yellow, and i play for hours on end. v1.1, latest drivers, etc...

i dunno, by email maybe? FORCE the user to register it - for free, and then send them an auth code, like some forums do, that they would have to activate, in order to use mta. the code could only be given out once, per email address. obviously some ppl have more than one though, i dunno how to solve that. just thoughts. once the person is banned, the auth code they have becomes invalid, and they cant get back online until it has been reactivated, or they have a new code. It might seem like alot of work, but it would only have to be done one time. btw, im not a programmer, but can you give windows..."exclusive rights" to an application, so that once its running, no other app can touch it? since most trainers are small apps running alongside whatever they want to hack, that could work maybe?

i think he means he wants to play mta .2, with mods. and i agree, that should be enabled or disabled in the server config, leave it up to them if mods are allowed or not.

the patriot and sandking go over bikes like speedbumps, helicopters fly over other vehicles, at high speeds the linerunner firetruck and securicar are like trains. i dont think "you drove over my car" is a valid cheat. clearly some vehicles have advantages, and others dont, size, unless its like 2 blocks long, isnt really a HUGE advantage. besides that, the bigger it is, the easier it is to shoot

i didnt say my solution was perfect, it was just an idea... obviously, as we've all seen, there is no surefire way to prevent cheating, and perma-ban someone, but you can always make it more difficult for them to come back.

and then what? dynamic ip's will change, if you ban the whole range, you could alienate an entire isp of of players, and if they post the names of the cheaters, well you can change your name in mere seconds... as it stands, there really isnt much you can do about cheaters... also, if you feel compelled to "report" (what a joke) someone, make sure you have hardcore evidence, something solid, "i couldn't kill him!" won't do. ive been called a cheater many times, simply bcause my 56k lags all you broadband users and it makes it difficult to kill me. (haha, legit cheating!) Now if you see, say, a bus flying into the air, well that would be a different story and in that instance, a screenshot would be beneficial, not to mention amusing. If you want to truly "ban" someone, couldnt you build a "keycode" or some sort of randomly generated number, like an id number, into the client, that the server could read, and allow / disallow that player to join if he was "banned" or not?
