Wait and see... (my new catch phraze)

There is a thread for gamemode/subgame suggestions at the top of this forum Closed

Wait and see

Hehe sorry but when he asked for a movie of 'passenger seat' i couldnt resist You see peeps when we release a little taster, be it in the form of screenshots or a video it gets tiresome having everyone saying 'why isnt blah in there' 'cant you add blah' 'give us blahblah', if the reaction every time is dissatisfaction then it just makes us wonder if its more hassle than its worth releasing anf info at all Please remember mtavc is still very much beta (although a damn playable one) and is not intended to be 'complete' in any way yet, just rest assured that each release will be a significant step up from the prior. Meanwhile keep your ORIGINAL game mode/minigame/missions coming, use the thread in here to suggest them, as providing no other major scm work is needed trx, headfonez and I will be concentrating on that side after 0.2 is released. [/u]

Ok a problem with my hosting, not sure why but after uploading the passengerseat.rar it disappeared. So it is here on the stunt video ftp instead: ftp://mta:[email protected]:1344

As requested by oreoman, a short movie of passenger seat from the test client. (not encoded as i dont know how, but 6mb rared to 2mb isnt too bad) hmm prob with the link, fixing it...

If u mean the doorway that has some stairs inside it where the lovefist limo is usually parked in the single-player game then thats hardly 'hidden' its the front door that has a hotspot to trigger the mission storylines in solo play. To enter the studios interior you must use the mta hotspot placed a little down the road on the concert hall steps. It is a bit of a maze in there tho i warn you

We have had gangs since the earliest days of gta3mta, they are now starting to see some action on the servers as we have the first truly playable release (0.1). Please refer to the gang forum

Of course we have. You are playing 0.1, first ever beta release, you cannot expect all details to be anywhere near complete at such an early stage. trx and I are working on a better balance for 0.2, you will see when it is completed, but even then you should not expect it to be perfect

The official servers have good admin coverage already, if there are ever any problems just come to the irc and notify either myself, cray, IJs or Blokker.

That, along with the entire 'blah killed blah' system is in there ready for later versions when it will actually work, and be accurate. In 0.1 it is niether. Think of it as the holes drilled in the wall ready for the screws that will hold the new shelf up. The holes are there for a reason, but they serve no purpose untill such time as the shelf is constructed and put in place.

It is your player i.d. basically what order people joined.

As mentioned a cheat will surface on most servers from time to time. however, if you use #mta-servers all gameservers advertised in there have admin present int he channel, so any cheats or disruptive players can be investigated and dealt with accordingly.

Do NOT add any vehicles, or edit any vehicles in mta, this is a breach of the licence agreement and therefore illegal. It is also CHEATING, and will destablise and desync both yours and the other players mtavc.

I have come across TUBSHITTER a few times, and had some suspicions, but have never seen him do anything obviously 'cheating', just some irritating and offensive things that where not quite serious enough to warrant a kick let alone a ban, this may be because he knows who i am and is therefore carefull not to do anything obvious when i am on the server. I think i will start to play under a different name and see how he behaves.

Be patient, all will be revealed when the time is right.

tarant_ino you will need to ask multiplicity people how close their work is to submission for possible inclusion. Although i think it unlikely as we have yet to see anything from them beyond some 3d mockups

In later versions (not 0.2) the character select screen will tie in with mission structures and game modes, different ones being available depending on what career you choose.

Last night, trx and I where testing his latest scm, and we decided to make sure warps and jumps worked ok with passengers. First the sentinal XS, i was driving, we headed for the office building, after 3 failed attempts to get up the initial stairway turn i managed it, only to get onto tht eifrst roof and skid straight over the edge. BOOM! lol Then there was the sandking, which got kind of stuck diagonally on the stairs so trx got out and tried to help by pushing the nose around, we made it up and out of the buildings 'jump window' onto the next building but preceeded to miss the next jump. As we did with the next half dozen vehicles we attempted it with. Finally we gave in and got a pcj, at which point on jumping out the window and landing on the first building trx was catapulted off, i didnt notice and made it to the next building at which point I rammed into its roof wall a little fast and also got catapulted off onto the ground. at which point i had to find another vehicle and get back onto the building to pick up a stranded trx! My belly ached from laughing, but at least the test was succesfull (tho it didnt say much for our combined driving skills hehe)[/u]

Actually the single player cheats, of the typed in kind, do not work in mtavc0.1, it is the trainer users that spoil others fun. This is an issue we take very seriously and there are many blocks and checks to stop trainer usage in the next release.

Evl shady, you where banned from the server for using a trainer, i personally witnessed you flying around with the jetpack cheat whilst saying to people 'hey look theres a player behind spawn flying without a helicopter!' Unfortunately for you i am able to see playernames and could see it was you. I therefore banned you from all i saw you on. Cheats are NOT welcome. As for your irc ban, i am not the first to ban you, after your consistent demands to know when the first mtavc was to be released 9rule number one is asking for release dates = BAN), your accusations and insults towards the team as a whole for slacking and your constant harping on about how gtat was great. Your usual tactic lately is to come in, make some unwelcome conmment then part before anyone can deal with you. This will not be tolerated. Examples: hey why isnt there a news update yet at mta? its been like a week u guys need to sort out your shit. Gtat is awesome compared to mta team * m~EvlShady has joined #m~#gta3mta * m~OpBot sets mode: +l m~37 any of u guys know how far u guys are done vc yet? why havnt you released it yet? * m~EvlShady has quit IRC * m~diggin-it has joined #m~#gta3mta * m~redbo0m has quit IRC (gone) * m~diggin-it is now known as m~redbo0m hey diggin red oh duh go take a big shit oohhh and shut good comeback lol weres yours ill have to write that one down ? oh ok * m~EvlShady was kicked by m~WarlordArchon (here) hahaha im back i told you to chill ha ha ha i didnt ban you moron i told u to go take a big shit and u act like my mom im telling you one last time am i kciked for saying he acts like adirty bitch like my mom lol you are kicked because you are being annoying u suck dude * m~EvlShady was kicked by m~WarlordArchon (last warning) get a fucking life pigeon fucker my god..will you op me so i can ban him? * m~EvlShady was kicked by m~WarlordArchon (WarlordArchon) * m~WarlordArchon sets mode: +b m~EvlShady!*@* [07:47] * m~Evil_Shady has joined #m~#mta [07:47] .2 gonna be released before school starts up? [07:47] * m~Evil_Shady has quit IRC [03:19] * m~Evil_Shady has joined #m~#mta [03:19] howw come no progress for the past 2 weeks? [03:20] * m~Evil_Shady has quit IRC i could go on, but you get the idea. and allyson, youve been told why you where banned, any team member will do the same if they see players impersonating admin or team members.

Having told merc about the causes for this pretty common happening it can now be found in his 'super faq'. Check the 'usefull' forum for details

Not just lag. I have explained to h4x-merc and hes added the explanation in his 'super faq' check the 'usefull' forum for details

One of the first things in mtavc to make me laugh out loud was the first time i chopped someone up with the helicopter blades. One of the scariest was when i had someone chasing me in the hunter trying to do the same to me!

Previously only available in #mta-servers. How to get playing in GTA3MTA First please make sure you have updated GTA3 to version 1.1, and have a clean install (No mods or addons, extra cars etc) 1] run launcher.exe (start/programs/MTA/ GTA Launcher) 2] In the launcher select the option 'GTA3 MTA' 3] In GTA3 hit 'start game, start multitheft auto'. 4] wait for game to load. When you see the credits rolling ALT-TAB and you will see an mta window is running 5] Delete the default ip shown, replace it with an ip from #mta-servers. 6] Type in your game name. (it is recommended you leave connection speed at 14k) 7] Hit 'Connect To Server'. When you get the 'ping recieved' message you are connected (note: sometimes it is recommended to wait 60 seconds or so to let the connection 'settle' before commencing play, especially with a dialup connection, if the orange 'led' stops flashing simply disconnect/connect) 8] Select 'Send Game Request. 9] ALT-TAB back to gta3 and play TIPS: Do NOT carjack another player. This will desync you both and you may end up having to restart. If the game gets exceptionally buggy or laggy then disconnect/reconnect to the server. You may also have to start gta3(MTA) again to prevent 'ghosts' (players who show on map but are actually no longer connected to the server) Remember to ALT-TAB to mta and use /in to talk to the people on the server.. /in Who wants to race?
