  1. If we continue to discuss language of all things, this thread will be locked. Please stop wasting precious posts.
  2. Proxies are unreliable and cause incompatibilities with most games nowadays. If you're connected by Ethernet, i suggest you try enabling Internet Connection Sharing on your Sister's computer. You can then set your own PC to connect to the internet via her PC (use the network connection wizard). You should be then connected without the use of proxies - and hopefully that'll solve your problem.
  3. If you want to use interiors in race you have to recreate the whole interior with objects. In deathmatch, GTASA's native interiors are enabled so you wont have to do that.
  4. are you sure he's not using Internet Connection Sharing? No one uses proxies nowadays - the only reason i can see to use it is because its not an ethernet LAN, but serial or ltp which no one uses anymore.
  5. SA-MP isnt of any of our concern. We are aware of the situation, and this certainly is a motivating factor to get MTA out quicker. I'm sure there is much good discussion but its only going to lead to flaming. Sorry, but find somewhere else. Locked
  6. Actually, erorr404 has mostly completed Race mode for DM. Its not entirely finished, but it very much works.
  7. Rob, it sounds like to me that since you've been a member for so long that you should get special treatment, and we should release MTA just because you've been waiting for 2 years or whatever. That's not the case, ive been through this. If you have such a problem with MTA not being released then i dont understand why you're here. Every few weeks i see a snidy comment from you about how you've given up on MTA because we dont care about the community, yet you still dont piss off. A release will come when its ready, anything you specifically say isnt going to change that.
  8. As far as i know there's no way to get this running. Im not sure exactly how 3d analyze injects into the process. Have you tried looking for alternatives to 3d analyze?
  9. Nokia 6300. Newish phone, came out a few months ago. Pretty sleek if you ask me
  10. I know one thing I'd do for sure... Release it Which is why you arent a developer
  11. i'll vote once ive seen Rocky Balboa
  12. Currently there are no custom animations. It may be something that's done in future.
  13. All i can say (and i am aware of) is that it is upgraded from Race, and theory you should be able to push more players into your server.
  14. I wont comment on if it will be any "easier". There havent been any official confirmations on the anti cheat, but expect an anticheat similar to that of race - minus the lack of updates. MTA has not had a great past with cheating on the old core, and im positive that the team will use the Blue core to the full in order to minimize cheating. MTA Race has a very solid anti cheat but has suffered due to lack of updates.
  15. At the moment you cant pass a function as an argument im afraid. It doesnt really affect things massively - it just means you have to add an extra line of code addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), "myScriptJoin" ) function myScriptJoin() outputChatBox(getClientName(source) .. " has joined the game.") end However, there is a solution to your problem. I could easilly write an alternative function - something like addEventFuncHandler which takes a function instead. it could look something similar to this: local eventNumber = 0 function addEventFuncHandler ( eventName, handleFor, func ) local functionName = "dummyFunction"..eventNumber local codeChunk = functionName.." = func" loadstring(codeChunk)() addEventHandler ( eventName, handleFor, functionName ) eventNumber = eventNumber + 1 end Basically it's assigning a random variable as a function and attaching that to the event. Alternatively, you could replace the addEventHandler as a whole local eventNumber = 0 local old_addEventHandler = addEventHandler function addEventHandler ( eventName, handleFor, func ) if type(func) == "string" then old_addEventHandler ( eventName, handleFor, func ) elseif type(func) == "function" then local functionName = "dummyFunction"..eventNumber local codeChunk = functionName.." = func" loadstring(codeChunk)() old_addEventHandler ( eventName, handleFor, functionName ) eventNumber = eventNumber + 1 end end Here you're defining addEventHandler as old_addEventHandler and effectively replacing it with your own function. It then checks if its a string - if it is then continue as normal, if its a function then do as above. This is entirely untested though it should work. Also, MTA has and has always had unlimited parameters for timers.
  16. How would a player win the game?
  17. Jani is on rocks And why was that comment necessary?

    Tired.

    It is hard for people to realise what it takes to be in the QA team. Its not about "playing", and never has. About 10% of our testing process involves playing just for fun. It is difficult to comprehend what exactly we're doing from your perspective. In my honest opinion - right now, we're doing about the same amount of work as the MTA team are developing, collaboratively. There's a reason we're part of the "Quality Assurance" team and not part of a "Beta Tester" team. We have had people who've joined QA expecting it to be a breeze, thinking they'll just play MTA whenever they have time and all will be well. Most of those who showed that attitude are no longer in the QA team. We understand we have not been posting progress updates recently, but circumstances have changed a lot, and we're pushing things a lot - with the sacrifice of news posts. but we do try hard to at least show we're alive, and we do have a history of showing progress updates regularly. its only recently that things have slowed down in terms of news and we know the sacrifice will pay off. Another thing that people misunderstand, is that people think that people in QA get to play MTA so they are not worried about when it comes out. This is really not true at all. We really are concerned about release, and it bothers us just as much as the community that its not released. If you had 12 year olds on the forums, idiots, flamers etc pestering at you at why its taking so long, would you completely ignore it? Every time i have to tell someone "No you can't get out of the car wait till DM" it isnt easy. Take it from me, we all want it out.
