Trust

I would like to thank the MTA-team too, they were the ones that got me into modding gta (not mta) and trying to get beyond the experience of gaming and understanding how games work. I hope these 2 posts from 2 normal people out there somewhere encourage you guys to keep up this mod, to be motivated and, most of all, to have fun with this and share the fun with anyone you want to and with us, the community. Thank you.

The 2nd reply in this thread. So, dystopia, what dll did you remove?

about the crashing after respawning, which dll do u have to delete in windows? I can't find one that looks like an MTA-dll file.

omg, u are pure evil dude I just hope it will be soon ,as they promised, because I'm leaving on vacation next week

about the characters, I remember seeing the Mr.Vercetti skin in one of the beta-pics. And I have no clue about the other questions, like everyone else I'm very curious.

it looks very nice, but why making 2 programs for it? can't you combine forces or am I just suggesting stupid things? anyhow, I don't know how to change the colors, but isn't this the wrong topic for your prog? this is the mtarc topic. btw: I haven't tested MTArc yet, because I simply haven't been able to (pc not at this place) but I will soon. Good luck both of you with your programs.

when you look at all those features he promises, it looks like the best thing out there (96 players, serverstats on website, +200 cars,...) but none of this actually works, it's really funny, because you can't even play it because of the major lag.

I don't want to be rude man, but I don't believe you. There are everytime guys out there who say that 'they know someone who has all the information' and it always turns out to be fake. And how would some gamestore know about this man? if so, all the gamestores who distribute the gta-franchise would know about this. Stop bullshitting around please, you're not helping anyone with this.

yeah, those damn guys who are able to put the MTA tags in front of their name, that is really annoying man. Hope that can be fixed in 0.4

if you put all the info ONLY on the server, what do you think what will happen when you try to kill a ped? 2 possibilities: -the client sends info to the server that he has killed a ped, so the server has to remove the ped from the city and send that info to all other clients (otherwise it wouldn't be synced). Now, imagine what would happen if every player kills a ped, at the same time? yup, the L-word. -other possibility: if the info is only on the server, and can't be changed by the client, you won't be able to kill them, because the ped's death won't be recorded and sent to the server. At least, that's what I think...

don't do drugs my friend

ow, didn't know that, I don't know that much about the law and such

well, everyone seems to be discussing on this, but it has not been confirmed that there will ever be a 4th part of GTA. In Power Unlimited (the mag with the interview with Dan Houser) Houser said that the entire GTA-team was taking a big vacation, so maybe they just go to some huge estate and spend the rest of their lifes drinking cocktails and whisky. j/k guys, but just for now, nothing has been confirmed concerning future gta-releases after SA, but according to the huge sales of gta, they will probably continue it... cya

now about Cray's payment, I also think that if you put some paypal button on the site "to support our developers" you will get money, there are always weirdo's who do such things. But IF you do that, Rockstar has any right to sue you, because you make money by editing something they made. So don't do it man

hmm, the lagging all over the map can be fixed, just make the .scm that it only loads ai within a certain amount of distance, like gta does now, you don't think that gta loads all the players and cars on the entire city do you? but yes, even then it would be laggy, true...

Indeed, well spoken element. I also volunteer to be admin (ofcourse, why shouldn't I) but I doubt that anyone would give my admin-access. And do you know why? because noone trusts each other, everyone distrusts any other player because of the cheaters. This is totally getting out of control, but I am (for now) confident that the 0.4 release will at least slow cheaters down, because if they want to cheat, they'll probably have to crack the client and so on, so there will be like one or maybe 2 weeks without cheaters, and I'm really gonna love that. It'll be just enough to master the new aiming and to become somewhat skilled again, so I'll probably recognise cheaters fast. There is really a need for admins, and not only active admins, but also fair admins... don't give up guys, don't let the cheaters take over MTA.

hey, don't get offtopic now, if that contest starts, i'm certainly in, we always put everyone in the same car, but we have only 12 members or so I'll try to do this as soon as possible

ok, let's ASSUME you're able to sync peds&traffic, what would you when you're on a mission? there are ingame cut-scenes, and you can't just make that one player sees that scenes while someone else is already playing the mission. This would be very difficult to solve, there are so many limitations in MP that it can't be done...

this has been discussed before, and syncing all those peds&traffic would cause an incredible lag, according to the MTA-team. I've also heard other theories out there, but I believe them for the moment

Robpol86, I hate to say this, but you just got PWND by this guy j/k dude lol, now ontopic: it is indeed unlikely that they made such progress, but not impossible. Remember that this may be smooth, they only support 4 players atm (in the beta-tests) and maybe when they will be able to raise that number the netcode turns out not to be that good... Edit: even Blokker didn't read properly?? wow... lol, don't be mad guys, you're only human, but I like making fun

idd, it wasn't said by Rockstar. But in Power Unlimited, a dutch gaming magazine, one of the few in the world that have actually been able to play gta:sa, confirmed that cops do that. Whether this will only be in cut-scenes or also in the game itself, I don't know, but it if correct that cops do that in gta:sa. but now ontopic: it is true that everything in MTA is part of the game and people should stop whining about molotovs or whatever (helikills and such).

use powell decks, they are not that expensive and are very reliable. I used it too when I skated, now I play MTA

ok, let me state a few things: 1) why the hell did you open a new topic for this??? you could have put in the older topic. 2) I don't think anyone of is is going to try it, please post some photo's of this in action and then I might consider trying it.

idd, forwarding won't help. I am also behind a router and I didn't have to change anythin in my router's settings, if you still keep timing out, try contacting the help-desk of your ISP, they're probably the only people who can help you.
