  1. Theres definately no spyware of any kind in mta, or in VC for that matter. Firstly where did you download mta from? It's possible someone may have offered an infected version (most virii can be attatched to ANY executable) so if you downloaded from anywhere but mtavc.com or our mirrors thats a possibility. Secondly did you download Vice City? If so the same applies, and frankly you deserve what you get if it IS a pirated copy and you became infected in this way. Thirdly its possible, although unlikely, that you have a virus that just happened to infect the first executable you ran afterwards, in your case Vice city. My money is on option two.

    MTAMA Blacklist

    No I mean you seem to be driving yourself to release an update every couple of weeks, leading to errors, unwanted (and downright silly) features and then the need to release yet another update to fix the previous one. Why update for the sake of it?
  3. No, he means use /msg. If you read the manual you'll understand.
  4. Or option four, make 'pausing' no different to standing still in the midle of the map with the vulnerability that comes with it. You want to pause, dont play a multiplayer game. You want to urinate wait till you die or take the chance. Just like in every other multiplayer game.
  5. If it isn't too personal a question: How old are you?

    MTAMA Blacklist

    Aeron, why update for the sake of updating? If it isnt broken don't fix it
  7. Not strictly speaking, you can provide the forum with a remote location where it will then get the file, or you can upload direct from your machine. In both cases the forum itself holds and hosts the image.
  8. European Computer Driving Licence. Just a fairly new standard PC ability exam that is piss easy, but looks god on my Curriculum Vitae
  9. You mount the kerb during a driving lesson and expect the nearest pedestrian to give you the finger and shout something obscene. You go too fast around a corner and look at your instructor questioningly, expecting to be given a Two Wheel Bonus. You think traffic lights are just to make the surrounding puddles of water glow attractively. You think 'I could take off in a Dodo here, it's long enough' when drivign down a straight stretch. You consider hitting the edge of the roundabout to see if u can do a barrell roll. You see a sailor in the street and feel the urge to shout 'NADE SPAMMER' You wake up in the morning and can't move for a few seconds and figure its just the spawn delay. You cant believe the farrari you are trying to steal is locked.
  10. You know you're bored when you take a break from sitting the ECDL exam to post some pointless spam thread in the BLAST section.

    MTAMA Blacklist

    For those of you concerned about the addition of the banlist (I am one of them) simply dont update to the latest version. This also has the advantage of no silly (normal) (admin+) indicator, so less clues to the cheaters as to just how much the admin can see at that moment.
  12. Did you remove your old card (drivers etc not just physically) and re-install the latest DirectX after intalling your new cards drivers? Also try deleting the gta_vc.set file in /my documents/grand theft auto vice city/ directory. This is written the first time you start the game and stores information on your video and sound hardware, so may have invalid entries causing your problem.
  13. As shown on mtavc.com 'MTA:Blue (60%)'
  14. Well in one way you cannot, they dont move up the page, but they get the 'recent activity' icon and attract attention again
  15. After several weeks discussions Jolt.co.uk have decided to add MTA to the dozens of online games they support. The website and forum are setup already at http://mta.jolt.co.uk and http://forums.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=1317 respectively and two game servers will be running shortly, (great news for the Europeans among you who find pings restrictive on wojjies excellent american servers), This is where YOU come in! Please do visit the site and take part in the poll to help choose which game types to host. GTA3, VC DM, VC Stunt. And feel free to visit the forum whilst you are there. Finally a big thank you to Jolt.

    New characters

    There are also no generally available tools capable of creating and editing new actors, hence the proliference of skins rather than new actor models.
  17. And yet you still bump it. Now hope in what? An old news post announcing the opening of a now established section of the forum?
  18. Thanks for letting us know. We'll be sure to hold it back until then. Because it was, incredibly smooth in fact. Play 0.3r2 then look at that video and see. (0.4 is slightly smoother so the difference isnt so obvious, though still pretty clear)
  19. You wanted something tarantinoesque? It was a preview clip showing some new techniques, not a hollywood blockbuster trailer. And who are you to tell us what we should, and shouldn't release? People tend to be interested in progress and the latest MTA breakthroughs. If you are not then simply skip the download. As for bullshit, that would imply that they were somehow not genuine, yet they were captured direct from testing, so perhaps you are actually referring to your statements?
  20. Personally I think its an example of Bandwidth Bigotry. In most online games the lagger has a destinct disadvantage, easy to die hard to kill others, game freezes you on the spot on occasion etc. Result, they get moaned at. In MTA they get a slight advantage of sorts (like low pingers do in other games) result, they are moaned at.
