Hi, I have installed MTA on my VPS and connected to it via FTP on filezilla. But, now I can't seem to find my mtasa folder Here is a screenshot of my root folder: http://faaf.me/5pwU/18a81b (if that is the root part of the FTP, I am a noob at linux) What do I do? Thanks.

This is awesome! I have been watching some of your other videos and the stuff you make is awesome as well!! Keep up the work mate.

Hi, I am looking at VPS's and I am trying to find one close to where I live (Australia) and I am wanting to know if the specs that I am looking at are good enough. I have looked at a company called Digital Ocean and I am looking at their $5 VPS which gives: Ram: 512mb Processor(s): 1 core (Processor: Intel Hex-Core) Hard drive space: 20GB SSD Bandwidth: 1TB Link: https://digitalocean.com/pricing/ I am also wanting to be able to run a mysql server on it as well as maybe other games as well (Not minecraft or anything, probably Just Cause 2 Multiplayer) and also if I need to, a teamspeak server for my friends to use (only use about 10 slots at max.) If the specs aren't good enough and you know some that would be better, please comment below, otherwise if you think it will suffice, then please comment below as well. thanks.

I see what you mean. Do you have any suggestions for a type of server? RP, Freeroam, DD/DM ..?

Hello everyone, I am thinking of starting my own DayZ server in Australia and I am just wanting to know how many people would play on it and whether or not it is worth doing it. Why am I asking? Because I am wanting to know how many slots I should order for the server. I don't want to get around 50 and only have 5 people play it or I dont want to get 20 and then have around 50 people wanting to join. I want to get the slots right straight away so everyone can play at once and so I don't have to waste money on the first month trying to get the slot amount correct. Anyway, post below if you would want to play on the server or post below on your thoughts of why this is a good idea or a bad idea. Basically post what your feelings are towards this idea Thanks.

Great servers! I bought one in Sydney and I have had no lag, around 30-40 ping (I am in Melbourne) and the FTP is really fast. Support is awesome. I also have a Rust server with them and have no problems with that either. Overall, 10/10 for great support and awesome servers Definitely recommended to anyone.

So, like this? screenW, screenH = guiGetScreenSize () function draw() x = 400/1024 y = 300/768 dxDrawRectangle ( screenW*x, screenH*y, screenW*x, screenH*y, 255, 255, 255, 255, true) end addEventHandler ("onClientRender", root, draw)

I am needing help with trying to configure a DX so it can be compatible with all resolutions. I am looking for a simple and easy solution. I have tried using the guiGetScreenSize but I just can't seem to figure it out. thanks.

I understand everybody has there own opinion but I have a dev server with Vortex Servers hosted in LA and I have no problems and I find they have great customer service. And as for the email they send you, your lucky they are offering you to move to another location. Some server hosters just tell you to wait for them to fix the problem. At least they are letting you get back to your server straight away, just in a different location. Anyway, I find Vortex Servers to be great.

Well, all the hosts that you listed have a maximum of 500 slots per server. Although, I am not sure about gta-servers.net. However, I have a development server with Vortex Servers and I must say, they are great! No lag on my server. Although it is just me and perhaps a few other people, there is still no lag. Nice control panel and great prices in my opinion. Their servers are mostly in US and they have one in the UK. So if you are located in Europe, the UK server would be best for you. Otherwise, if you are in Australia or Asia or anywhere away from Europe, then I suggest a server in the US. I have mine in Los Angeles and it is great. if you want a server with 1024 slots, then I suggest getting a dedicated server or a good VPS. It's more expensive, but you can host multiple MTA servers if it is powerful enough or even a website. Well, I hope this helps.

nono, I mean so the event can be universal for all scripts. So, if I made a core script and it contained something like onPlayerResigned. Then I made a job so when he resigns, he gets some cash, so I would use the event handler as onPlayerResigned. Get what I mean? Like an export so I can use it in other scripts.

I mean, like some servers have it like onPlayerResign for a script that have made. Since onPlayerResign isn't in the wiki, they must have made it themselves, so I want to know how I can make my own.

Hi, I have seen some scripts and they have there own custom made event handlers. I just want to know, where do I start so I can make my own? Sorry, I don't have a script to show you because I have no clue on where to start making one. I know how to make exports, just not event handlers. Thanks.

function joinArmedForces() setPlayerTeam(source,ArmedForces,team) setElementModel(source, 287) giveWeapon ( source, 3, 24, 31) setElementData( source, "Occupation", "ArmedForcesteam", true ) outputChatBox("You are now a solider.",source,69,139,0) end addEvent("setArmedForces", true) addEventHandler("setArmedForces",root,joinArmedForces) Where you have set the team, you put an extra comma. It needs to be setPlayerTeam(source,ArmedForcesteam) AKA remove the comma

I'll give hedit a shot and let you know how I go. But I mainly want to know how to script it because 1. I wanna improve on my scripting. 2. So I can use it on any vehicle I enter and it will be done straight away, unlike with hedit having to go through a menu and stuff. So, I am still hoping someone can still explain setVehicleHandling to me better. Thanks.

Ok, I had a look and I don't understand it all. What properties do I use to make it faster?

Hi, I have been playing on some servers and have found that some modded cars go faster then they normally do. I am wanting to learn how they do that. I am not sure where to start as in commands. I have tryed looking for setVehicleSpeed or something like that and I have had no luck. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. Thanks.

Hi, it looks really cool and I am really wanting to use it but when I install it and then try to open it from the desktop shortcut, it says it is not responding every time, so I can't use it.

All works now guys, thanks.

Hi, today, I wanted to create a small script so I could use it to practice shooting with a hydra. So I made a script that would created a vehicle at my position. function createCar() local x, y, z = getElementPosition (localPlayer) createVehicle (550, x, y, z) end addCommandHandler ("create", createCar) But for some reason, I can't enter the vehicle, nor will it explode. How do I make it explode and make it enterable? It's clientside by the way. Thanks.

It doesn't need to be set by the admin panel now, which is good, but it creates all of them after about 2 seconds.

I said it works. But just to let you know. This will only work if you set yourself in the team via the admin panel ONLY!! And it won't do anything unless you restart the script again with you in the team, then it will show.

Ok, I just tested it again and yes, it does work. Thanks heaps. But it is really messy, so I will try and make it neater and more understandable. Thanks again.

Yes. Why? Is it working for you?

Nope, doesn't work at all
