I was playing on a GTA3 server, and myself and some other players couldn't work out why there were players in the tunnel. They were in the tunnel on the radar and if you went to the tunnel, you could see their names and health bars through the wall. However, after speaking to one of them, it turns out that these are players who aren't actually in-game.

Yes, thanks guys. The best pro is that it's easier for newer players to use, so there will (hopefully) be no more "I can't kill people - they're all cheating" and "GTA3:MTA loops at the credits"-style posts. Oh, and thanks for fixing the bug where you have to keep clicking Reset Game Path.

I was just playing in a GTA3 server and it came up with the Turismo thingy. I was quite near the starting point at the time, so I got there with about 30-40 seconds to spare and parked my car. Now, when you park it there, the camera starts zooming away. The problem was that it didn't stop zooming, and because I got there early, it must have exceeded the boundaries of the map because I got an exception error.

I think stunt mode should have spectator mode as well - it's a match made in heaven, as it were. Also, I miss that thing where you right-click the mouse in VC (whilst on foot) and you can see car waypoints on the map, which is sadly missing on GTA3 (but luckily the map's smaller, so it's not a major problem).

They're probably cheaters I love 0.4, but if you only have VC, you're not really going to notice much difference, as it's the GTA3 support that's the biggest feature. For me, it's a lot more stable. I haven't crashed once. Some people seem to be crashing all the time though. Also, admins seem to love playing around with the new stuff like the weather.

You know, sometimes i wonder why we bother. Don't listen to him. There's always one But seriously, "no new features"? Are you sure you didn't run 0.3 by mistake? The biggest feature is GTA3 support being brought up to scratch. It was a massive undertaking, as no doubt was the new aiming system. Anyway, 0.3 wasn't as rosy and perfect as you made out - that required a patch after release as well, due to a major bug. After the bug fix, everything was fine, so please don't be so quick to judge.

You need to use the All Seeing Eye server browser to display servers. MTA does not have a built-in server browser. http://www.udpsoft.com/eye2/index.html

Yeah, sorry, I noticed that in a topic further down after posting in this one.

Core is the "core" of MTA - what goes on behind the scenes, interfacing with the game.

Couldn't you get MTA to automatically change the attributes? This would make it a lot easier because we'll get hundreds of forum posts related to something as simple as that.

Someone mentioned in another thread about how slow the cars were, so I went back into the game and yeah, the cars were crawling along in comparison to their speed in SP.

A major con is related to GTA3. How come it doesn't have spectator or stunt mode? Is this technically impossible, or will this be addressed in later versions (i.e. the versions to add the extra islands)? Also, more importantly, at the time of writing, this is the server ratio: GTA3 : VC 7 : 66 But it's early days - there are still over 100 servers still running 0.3 (and 2 running 0.1 for some reason), so hopefully this ratio should even up somewhat. I love the new aiming system. I don't know why people are complaining about not being able to kill people - I'm not sure if that problem will ever go away due to MTA being client-side.

Er... no... this was posted ages ago. Someone decided to bump it for some reason.

PlanetGTA.com: Do they mean the client? If so, damn! It's 11.00 PM over here and I'm going to bed soon.

Surely the official one was the first one up? And someone's playing on it! That is so cruel.

Will the client be released once ASE has updated its filters to accomodate 0.4?

Client download available!!!!! *calms down* Edit: Sorry, client download text, but no actual download link

I just checked out the server and was a little disappointed by this: It's a pity that stunt only works with VC, and that there aren't any new game modes. However, it will be interesting to see what people do with the new features of MTAMA.

I would have thought that it's just a matter of hours (possibly even less), or am I wrong?

Presumably in order to have "GTA3:MTA 0.3b", there must have been a 0.3a, right?

100%!!!!!! *screams*

Perhaps you have the better deal. Everyone will want to play it the second it's released, with hardly any servers running and ASE not supporting the new version yet.

I don't think it's possible with the current core (0.3), so it's no surprise that they're not present.

What is the current obsession with reviving threads that are 7-8 months old?

99% is so annoying (but less so than 99.9%). It's just really unbelievably taunting. Does this mean that it is essentially finished and preparations for release are being made?
