[PiG] Ponch

lol I wonder what DeathB thinks of all this... can't wait to see the results of the votes. There can only be one! Good luck to both of you...

No you just [EDIT] [EDIT] [EDIT] and that's all you have to [EDIT] I could tell you but I wont [EDIT] [EDIT] [EDIT] But, seriously the coloured names really do mess with the servers and I don't let anybody play on mine with the colours turned on. All you have to do is set your name to black and then no more scoreboard. You just can't read it after they logon. You get one change to turn it off and then *bang* your gone... It's not hard to find out how to do it but don't expect to remain on the server for long if you do For some reason you'll be branded a cheat straight away...

Ouch!! he bites... I wasn't trying to start anything, and thought i was in the right thread?

Naaktloper could be talking about the strippers. I get that randomly too. I doubt a girl would install naked girl skins (unless she has a brother that likes playing jokes on his sister )

LMFAO!!! DeathB has got himself a BIG fan!!! Who is Naaktloper?

I still agree with you... Sorry if I sounded like I wasn't.

I think you will find that the people still running 0.2.0 have lives of their own and that the may not have the time to upgrade. Even some 'popular' servers in my region took ages to update... But yes I agree with you. If you're running a server you know to check for updates regularly. I run all sorts of game servers at work and I know how often retail software updates yet alone Beta software... With something like MTA you must know to check all the time because you'll never know how often they update their software...

I thought it might be a good idea, if it's possible, to have a spawn point selection at character selection. Either by choosing any spawn point or selecting a spawn point associated with each character class. It kinda sux when someone hangs out at spawn points and gets a in few cheap kills, and the game keeps putting you in the same place... It would also make it easier to get to the action, by being able to choose where you spawn...

Case Closed... Another successful [PiG] case solved. Glad I could help

The file belongs to Windows' XP Application Compatability feature (ApplicationCompatabilitylayers.dll) Just check you're not trying to run the game as another OS... This might help or it might not... It's the only thing I could find on M$'s site... http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/q308/3/61.asp&NoWebContent=1 (Ignore the word Quake and replace with VC ) This patch might fix the file you are having problems with Or if you just need the file try this site... http://www.donker.ws/dll-a_all.php Not much on the net about this file but these links where about the only thing I could find. 50/50 change dude...

you did the right thing buddy... Don't play with them! Not much fun cheating if there is nobody to cheat against

Imagine this dude at a lan with a modded case... think he'd still look ghetto lol

You want to snipe play counter-strike... I can't think of anything more annoying that someone on top of a building using snipers. that would be an unfair advantage...

I found getting a motherboard with a decent bus speed makes all the diff. No point upgrading anything if your motherboard can't even transfer the data fast enough. and a lot of data it is!!!! You can have the most kick arse video card but it would be no good in a slow piece of shit computer. just because you FPS is low doesn't mean you need a new video card I also find that sound cards laaaaaagggg computers a lot if all the extra soundcard shit is turned on and you don't have a soundcard with hardware excelleration... (BF1942 very bad for this) Rule of thumb: "Your computer is only as fast as your slowest component..."

All is fair game in a world of crime...

This time we might actually have enough active members Damn those "i'll join your clan for a day cos I don't really play the game" people.

Why did it take 6 formats to format 100% soundz like a major HDD problem. If you can explain this a wee bit more it might help with the overall problem. I've had that before and to fix it I low level formatted my drive with the correct tool from my HDD manufacturer. Now the drive is like brand new and I have not had a single MAJOR scandisk error on it in the last 2 years (i.e bad sectors) infact the low level format fixed ALL the bad sectors on the drive. As for the installer quiting on you...at what point EXACTLY does it quit on you? when you click a button? when it finishes loading? are there any error messages? If you give some more details I might be able to help you out. (it could still be something to do with the fact you had to format your drive 6 times!)

Wow, the new [PiG] member is getting trigger happy already

I was having problems until last night. At first I crashed every 2 mins or so but last night I was the most stable its ever been I found from playing on my own server that certian people were causing the crashing. Maybe it's the way they have setup their clients (but I'm not 100% about this tho)

ASE should automatically update it for you

sorry I didn't make myself clear - i was talking about trainers.

no it's not - my skins are still buggy as hell and so are those of every one i know... but I'm patient sure it will get fixed...

screw the fact it's a nice case... what about the contents? p.s. nice case...

Wow, there is at least $1.24 worth of 2 cent ideas here. But all are pretty cool ideas. I like the no gun/car no marker on radar idea...

tsk, tsk I don't think that's covered in Rockstar's EULA. how about removing their markers from the map if not spawned and if there is NO user input for X minutes automatically timeout the connection to the client. That's how most games I've played do it and that would cover the people who alt tab and the ones who just sit there and don't spawn for ages. As for not having alt-tabbed people on the radar this could be handled by the same 'no user input' sub-routine (if paused and idle time > 30 sec then remove marker on radar) just to tell the person trying to mess up the AFK person that they can't this is my 2 cents last thought: even a different colour for paused people would tell others not to waste their ammo on that particular person
