uhm

Then I wonder, how do DDoS packages route to your personal system? Do they just get broadcast? Or does the router fail completely? In the last case Peerblock wouldn't be effective. Regarding this subject, I read the following article with great interest: Configure your router to block DOS attempts Also are there a lot more attacks going on? Because some student college of mine is complaining that his open source project website is being attacked also. Is this what the Mayans predicted?

ayo always good when it turns out to be not as difficult keep on codin!

I like how the first Google result for Ddos Protection is "DDoS Protection | Anti DDoS Attack, Get Protected for $299/month". Are you behind a router? Some routers like Sitecom come with a variety of options against these kinds of attacks Also you could find out their IP and then block it (assuming it's just some dickwad script kiddo), but all of these things are very router specific.

Are you asking if it's already been made? Then this might be something to look at: https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p= ... ls&id=5409 It has that weapon functionality you mentioned

I'd love to offer something else that could help you but what you're having is not an error in the server or a bug in MTA. The map designer probably made and tested those maps on an external server while having a ping of say 150. If someone else plays the map on a different server with a lower ping, then they're going to have these problems. It's a map problem. There is no true solution other than editing the map, but another workaround could be to put it on a different server. Like in the USA if you're from Europe. That's a way to get your and probably your friends' pings up...

Ah ok yeah. dpkg is also a Debian command. But you're on a 64 bit version of CentOS or Fedora. Try this: yum install compat-readline5-static Though this also seems to install to /lib64/libreadline.so.5 /lib64/libreadline.so.5.2 The whole deal is that it oughta install to /lib32/ I honestly have no concrete steps that could help you. I guess find a readline5.5 package for 32 bit CentOS and then install it. Alternatively you can reinstall your server to a 32 bit version, if MTA is the only thing you're running. Source: http://pkgs.org/centos-6-rhel-6/centos- ... 4.rpm.html

Have you rented an MTA server? Then contact the staff of that company to do that solution. Have you rented a VPS or dedicated server, or do you own or have access to a linux server? In that case you'll probably have used Putty before to connect remotely to that server, that's the SSH part. Do it again and you'll have access to Debian via a console. That's where you type that wget ......... lib32/ stuff. If you don't know about Putty, then I wonder how exactly you installed MTASA or even run it, but then download "PuTTY". In the window type the IP address of your server. Choose SSH as connection type. After that you can login with user credentials. After that you can type those commands. If you're on Debian with a GUI: go to Applications and then choose Terminal Bonus pro tip: select and copy the "wget ......... lib32/" stuff in Windows, then right click anywhere in the PuTTY terminal window to paste it Let me know if it worked

Code on, bro! It's some Visual Studio program with images of links to those services he said. edit: attached image removed due to imageshack assery https://www.virustotal.com/file/ec5dbba ... /analysis/

It's possible those CRCs occur on the client and only for you, so in that case you would need to defragment the harddrive on your own pc (not applicable for SSD's) If it isn't and the server windows says it, then I suggest defragmenting the servers disk, after that then you should probably reupload those files. If you can't, remove those files, then upload some other files you don't care about first of about 10 mb total and then upload those music files. This hopefully puts those dontcarefiles physically on those corrupted spots and the music files will be on healthy spots. It's really weird CRC fails for such small files though

Oh right the alternate universes instead of size dimensions

Ok imagine an expert scripter. He'll be busy for one week. He shows the server to you on his server. It looks good. He wants €50. Would you pay €50? He worked on it for 15 hours. He just earned the same amount he'd get for working at McDonalds.

I tested that object and it seems to be alright. Does this only happen with that model? Maybe you installed some mod that changed/corrupted it? (for instance grove street mod)

this problem description is very vague do you mean like tall zombies like in saints row 2? (those asses on the right)

what's a suitable price for a coder these days? what do you offer?

Wait, does it load the same music.mp3 file every time, but it randomly throws a CRC error?

Ok, if it says in console that it's loaded then it's alright. Because your post says mta_mysql without .dll or .so

I think you're supposed to do this in mtaserver.conf: <module src="mta_mysql.dll" /> <!-- or .so for linux --> https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Mod ... stallation Though the error "attempt to call global 'MySQL_GetString' (a nil value)" is pretty strange, since that's not a documented function on MTA-MySQL wiki page. It would be a custom function so why doesn't it exist?

Well, it's more likely they use your user account to link your stats to. So if there's a logout function, do that and register for a new account. Though it is unlikely, if they really base your stats by IP then you could renew your ip if you have a dynamic ip address. An other alternative is that they link it to your serial key only. In that case you probably can't get rid of those stats.

Ah, that's fantastic! +1 For anyone else: loadstring is a native LUA function, so it's not documented on the MTA wiki. It also takes files as parameter, making it perfect to use in the way Anderl described. I'm guessing it'll need downloadFile though, available from 1.4 onward.

Perhaps you changed something in energy saving settings?

I tried this a while back, but back then it wasn't possible because the MTA client starts running the client scripts only after every single resource has downloaded. Alternatively you can use server side functions to write text: Read more on Wiki

Well, this is your presentation of your resource. You spent your time working on this nice resource, but in your presentation to your potential users (in a way customers, really) you tank it by saying "Hey, another cool feature: this resource supports calls from external scripts, but you have to do these things to get them working. I could do it for you, and for every other one of my customers, but I'm not going to. Because I'm lazy." Please understand that I don't intend anything else than reflecting to you how this addition to your presentation seems to me. Just a little bit of feedback.

Ok, check if this works: local guiFinnish = guiCreateWindow( 0.25, 0.3, 0.5, 0.3, 'Quit Job', true ) local markerFinnishJob = createMarker( 321, 874, 19.3, 'cylinder', 2.0, 255, 255, 0, 170 ) addEventHandler('onClientMarkerHit', markerFinnishJob, function(hitPlayer, matchingDimension) -- get position of ped and marker local pedx,pedy,pedz = getElementPosition(hitPlayer) local cpx,cpy,cpz = getElementPosition(source) -- check if the player is within 10 meters below or above the checkpoint, if so execute desired code -- also check for dimension since its free if (matchingDimension and ((pedz - cpz < 10 and pedz - cpz > 0) or (cpz - pedz < 10 and cpz - pedz > 0))) then guiSetVisible( guiFinnish, true ) showCursor( true ) end end , false)

oh I updated my post after you replied

could change it to ring marker type or add to the handler that the ped position must be within range using getElementPosition
