Yawn Oh gosh, he's not going to play our mod anymore. Lawks! whatever shall we do? Verily we shalt faileth yest yonder single f.ucking person doth refrain from partaking of our work. Alas, Alack, Doom and forsooth, we dont give a f.uck if you want the truth. Take you attitude elsewhere, and your 'donations' too, then rescue your sister from los Angeles Zoo, Meanwhile all us gamers will kill and be killed, lambasting the cheaters and praising the skilled, while you mope in your miserable dark dingy life We'll enjoy mta and leave you to your strife. So go moaning fellow, play that other mod, its solitary server suits you. Lonely sod.

Just a reminder to you all that you have only NINE days to complete and enter your movies.

I object Because i can't see her nipples

Trx and I discussed this back in 0.1 dev, and we may well enable some multipassenger support (more than 3) in vehicles such as the bus and coach at some point. This isnt a priority tho so it would be in later versions.

MTA Offices stormed by Santas' complaining about gta3mta0.4 being on too many Christmas Lists.

It simply the skin ID not being sent to you for everyone when you first join, as soon as a player dies and respawns the skin and radar colour will be correct. A rule of thumb is if the radar dot is yellow the information has not yet been sent to you. VCC are yellow so this isnt always the case but if the yellow dot is vcc skin when you reach him it is correct

As i said, 24fps is around the minimum that the human eye can be fooled into thinking is fluid motion (although this in mediums with 'blur' that vastly decrease the needed fps, unlike the pc which is sharp and crisp, unless your monitor is buggered (another reason less fps is needed in LCD monitors, they blurr more than a sausage in a gutter being stared at by a drunk at closing time)) For a more indepth explanation see: http://www.100fps.com/how_many_frames_c ... ns_see.htm

Moron. Locked, banned and sent to therapy

In one jump? Dunno, bound to be, I did spend a while seeing how many i could perform in an infernus before it exploded, i made 12 before i had to bail and boom.

Blokker said: Actually blokker thats the minimum FPS that will fool the brain into seeing unbroken motion (hence why it is used in cinema, it was the least they could get away with, therefore saving on material costs. Less film needed = less outlay)) The eye and brain is capable of differentiating between 24 and much higher framerates, resulting in much smoother motion and less eyestrain. And i agree, we are drifting off topic, so tell me how to get 150fps on this steam powered pile of crap I call a P.C please

Hotring is the fastest accelerating car, joint second fastest, one of the toughest, and has the best handling out there. Thats what makes it special

OK, 'the playa' worked perfectly (thanks Ponch) NBS|Imperial - very nice indeed, Curly - I look forward to seeing the finished article with more than 2 seconds of combat

Who said most progress has been made in gta3? It's merely looking likely to be the next version ready for release, this doesnt mean foundation progress hasnt been made for the next mtavc, merely that it is under wraps for now. Never forget we have a large team now, plenty of people to work on both versions.

Dont mislead the poor guy. MTA is safe in that nobody can use it to backdoor or trojan your system with it. The only 'hacking' is people hacking it around in attempts to get around the cheat protection and spoil others fun.

Hmm i have that, and yet both yours and curlies play with a lot of graphical mess (random coloured boxes) and skipping sound in media player, power dvd, windvd. and with perfect pisture yet at 1/2 speed and broken sound in virtualdub I fuggin HATE codecs

OK got them, now what codec did you guys use? i have div2,3 and 4 installed, it isnt any of those, and AvInfo doesnt recognise it.

Happened again. must be a problem peculiar to my machine or isp tho as another team member managed to get it ok. I shall download from him instead

Yes, infernus has higher top speed than any other vehicle in the game, a pcj will outrun it due to its much quicker acceleration. I didnt just estimate this the list is worked out using the data from VC itself

Curly, i dont know what you have done but your video cannot be downloaded, all that is recieved is a 34kb 'avi'. Please fix so it can be entered.

I've played on dialup, and ive played on broadband, believe me it is a LOT harder to kill anyone (and yes, be killed) on dialup In which case once our netcode improves and a low ping is an 'advantage' do you suggest we start kicking people for a LOW ping? As the advantage will at this point rest with those that have one. Perhaps kick people who have an optical mouse and a fast pc, they have much smoother play and more accurate aiming, advantages both. The only reason high ping players are kicked from most online games is the fact they slow down the experience for all other players on that server, this does not happen in mta.

This is a definitive (correct) list. Fastest vehicles in order of top speed: 1 Infernus 2 Hotring, Cheetah 3 Phoenix, Banshee, Comet, Deluxo 4 PCJ, Sanchez, Angel, Freeway 5 Sabre Turbo In order of acceleration: 1 PCJ and Sanchez 2 Angel 3 Freeway 4 Hotring 5 Banshee 6 Cheetah and Sabre Turbo 7 Infernus 8 Pheonix and comet 9 Deluxo

I press the Any Key

seems my simple 'No' didnt suffice. Of course high ping isnt cheating, don't be so rediculous. Yes it is hard to kill someone with a higher ping but that swings both ways, the guy on dialup is going to have a very hard time killing anyone else too, if you see a high pinger and the challenge of aiming ahead is too much for you then move on to another target. MTA is free for all to play, wether dialup or T3, and bandwidth bigotry that you are showing is plainly disgusting. Thier ping does NOT slow down your experience at all due to the way mta works, so let them play. Just because you have the right area/equipment/income to have broadband doesnt make you better, and certainly doesnt give you the right to look down upon those who dont. Kicking for high ping is not going to be a feature anytime soon, count on that. p.s. that 20 second lag spike isnt actually a lag spike, as said elsewhere the ping report shown in the client and in the scoreboard overlay is not 100% accurate nor 100% stable, it is however close enough and regular enough to be worthwhile.
