  1. For several reasons, mta isnt designed to run with any modifications, you risk increasing instability for not only yourself but everyone else on the server. Making mta appear to be much more 'crashy' than it actually is. People tend to blend over from stunt to dm, (bad enough in stunt, others will wonder wth they cant earn the same kind of money you fdo and make the same kind of stunts you do, not to mention 'fair races'), using thier trainers and handling changes/model changes in there too. People like yourself will often give out whatever you use to get around our prevention, spreading it into the hands of people who want to do nothing but go into servers and spoil the fun for everyone else. Last but by NO MEANS least you must be using a cracked version of our client which is against our EULA and generally a really shitty thing for you or anyone else to do.
  2. And i START in the summer lol, teaching tho not learning. Thank goodness nothing is a 24/7 job
  3. If you are forwarding the ase port as robpol said then ase should be displaying your correct internet ip. Note ASE port is server port plus 123, so game:2003, ase:2126, game:2001, ase 2124 etc. You may also want to forward whichever port you set for the admin console if you wish to allow external players to administrate your server.

    CHASE MODE

    This sounds a little like 'tag, but with vehicles. Please post game mode suggestions in: http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t=2744&start=255 I also think a chase with the 'proximity meter' as seen in some gta3 missions would be nice, the object simply to lose the person chasing you. It's one of the many many possible gamemodes on my list of future gamemodes, (probably on trx's list too), ready for the time we have the foundation stable enough to start cramming them all in

    spectator mode

    Just ask dead people to leave the server, that's what used to happen in matches anyway to prevent the possibility of them rejoining or flooding the chatbox and distracting the still living. This also makes it obvious at a glance who is still alive on the opposing team.
  6. ok great, feel free to replace the link.
  7. Please ensure this doesnt work with mta (as we sync weather in the 0.4 and god knows what conflicts youll cause) then replace the link i removed.
  8. Ill be posting more images over the next few days, from 0.1 testing thru normal gameplay to 0.4 testing. Simply make a single line post with your caption to match the screenshot. NOTE: dont post pics in here like some did, Captions only please Day 1: Example: The Downtown Paragliding Clubs fundraising jump was well attended. It is hoped that enough will have been raised to buy parachutes in time for next months meeting when all members should be out of hospital.
  9. When it's ready. Be grateful Im in a good mood and decided not to award you forum idiot status.
  10. We dont want to encourage people to sit in the client chatting. Its a means to an end not a miniature IRC program. Dropped chat: try it yourself, ask others, your chat isn't being dropped when you dont see it. (but of course you know better than the team right?) Theres a much more logical way to deal with pm sending, one that you will see in its initial stages in 0.4.
  11. Again that depends on how its implemented into GTA. I was thinking more about gamemode specific uses. One example being Capture the pizza, where the person carrying the box eats from it constantly and therefore gets fatter and slower. making him easier to catch. Many others come to mind but really we have to wait and see.
  12. Depends how the new features are implemented in the single player. Stamina meter and size, (Overweight / starved), have given me a few ideas regarding gamemodes and integrating it. But who knows untill we can get our hands on the actual game
  13. Previous messages buffering would make it far too easy for someone to flood, not serious 200 lines a second flood, but annoying child like; HEALLO!!! HEALLO!!! HEALLO!!! HEALLO!!! HEALLO!!! HEALLO!!! type floods. As for messages not getting through, youll find they are in fact getting thru, just not echoing back to you when latency and packet loss is high. In other words everyone else saw you say it even if you didnt.
  14. PlanetGTA said that? Basta**s! Its got bugs and more than a few problems definately, but can still be immense fun for those who HAVN'T experienced the much more advanced MTAVC.
  15. That should handle it fine, servers take very little cpu but a lot of bandwidth. Weve known servers to run on p-133's
  16. It effects it in the same way as the vehicles, thop to a lesser extent as the difference between the number of actors shown in mta and the number of actors in vc is less drastic that the 80/10 for vehicles. Also bear in mind its runing the mtaclient itself over the top of gta_vc so uses a little more cpu etc to do that alone. Really this guy needs to elaborate a little as to wether by 'lag' he means latency, ping, graphics, aim etc. Then perhaps we can help further.
  17. If you can locate the win98 patch then yes, gta3mta0.3b should funtion correctly, (I believe Marcel has it, find him on irc). Note that that gta3 version is a lot older and a lot buggier with less features than the last few mtavc versions. Still great fun tho once you get the hang of its foibles. p.s. next time try a little reading before posting a question, website, manual, sbs, faq, lots of forum posts.. all state quite clearly that mtavc isnt compatible with your O/S.
  18. Locked, lets not give these few kiddies the pleasure of aknowledging and discussing the small temporary problems they can cause people. A reaction and publicity is what they are hoping for after all.
  19. it was only named rc2 briefly, then changed to 0.3r2 (release 2) Oh the joys of names and numbers...
  20. Play on better/closer servers.
  21. You're not running windows95/98 or windowsME right? It would be pretty near impossible to miss all the places that state clearly mta wont work with those o/s
  22. Just set the mp3 station to your default station i think (audio options). Personally it irritatates me to only have music while i drive, so i disable ingame music and have coolplayer play mp3 instead, that way i can kill, and die, to music too
  23. Can you all stop debating the pros and cons of this thread and leave it to its original purpose please? Thanks.
