The closest thing you will get to this video, sadly download itself is broken. Unless its still somewhere on the server, it might be lost media https://web.archive.org/web/20030810093840/multitheftauto.com/downloads.php?file_id=19

Have you tried Bottles/Soda? This is currently the easiest and most promissing way to get MTA running on linux. https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Client_on_Linux_using_Bottles/Soda_Manual

OBS works just fine for MTA.

Read the wiki page: TLDR: you cant disable AC for your server. Just dont use cheats :3

no, simply because of security reasons.

A client for any computer architecture other than x86 will never happen due to technical/time limitations.

Hello guys, I would like to release LibDeflate-MTA, a pure Lua compressor and decompressor for Multi Theft Auto with high compression ratio using DEFLATE/zlib format. It is based on the initial LibDeflate project found here and has been adjusted to be used in MTA. This library can be used on both server and client to compress and/or decompress files. Comes with two test files for each side to quickly test. Two exported functions are provided, return true or false on completion: compress(input_file, output_file) decompress(input_file, output_file) Limitations: This is purely lua, compression and decompression will be much slower than C/C++ counterpart. The compression and decompression depends on clients hardware alot! Don't expect to handle tens or hundreds of megabytes of data, the library runtime will be aborted by MTA at some point. During testing, compressing a 6 MB file seemed fine, trying 10 MB failed due to infinite running script. Download: here

As many people said in past and will say in future: DO NOT TRUST THE CLIENT Always expect the data coming from client to be manipulated. Perform important validations on server side. And as DiSaMe already said, 99% of problems are caused by bad scripts/resources. Use client for server events, try to avoid elementdatas, if you need elementdatas then check if they got changed by client and revert them back, perform movement validations of players.

See https://forum.multitheftauto.com/topic/139550-cheater-reports-ban-appeals-in-2023/ Dont rely solely on anti cheat, get some staff/admin people to check players, AC aint bulletproof.

no, the remaster is completely different from a technical perspective, therefore MTA will never work on that.

To answer your question in TLDR: Security

OOOf thanks for the all those great memories. Sadly I miss alot of the old MTA:Race and 2010s times. Made a playlist with very old videos (12+ years) most from old race client times:

I tried to get it running on steamOS with proton but aint working as expected. I guess theres a sandbox issue within MTA and GTA files given the memory offset but havent really dived deep into it.
