I doubt they know when its gonna be released, they could make loads of progress then get knocked back via a bug, im sure they will let people know when its close tho
uninstall your game and remove the directory altogether, when u reinstall, copy the san andreas directory to another location then use one for modding and another for mtasa
does single player load? if not try deleting the gta-sa.set file in my documents > gta san andreas user files and start your game again in single player, u will need to set any keys u changed and your res if u delete the file tho

ive setup my keys like they was on vc but use 7 for special down and 8 for special up, i know setting your keys like vc takes a while but its worth it in the end, specially if u still play vc
