Phat Looser

There were some bugs I didn't experience, i.e. when you delete a sound element before you stop it, there will be a c++ assert error (I have tested this only twice, though)

I am planning to do so for three laptops on Tuesday.

Thats what my shellscript does. Linux FTW

Doesn't change a bit.

I checked again, and he is right.

Even without shaders the framerate drops depending on the GFX card. I will add some information about that later.

Good to know.

As far as I know its possible to softlink the libmysqlclient.so.15 to libmysqlclient.so.16 without much of an issue. But thats something for advanced linux users who know where to look at if an error occurs. I haven't tried it yet.

If it was tested a billion times you must have a software quality assurance document

How much would he pay

They are not. dxDrawText changed X and Y without a notice (by that I mean the "where the text is drawn", like "top", "buttom" etc.) A general tab for "enabling or disabling shaders" with a possibility to check that via script? (for the case you are trying to render stuff invisible via shaders, i.e.) Fucking epic idea. I guess thats really needed.

Actually, I was the one who moved his server, and it was a mass-moving - in other words I moved about 12 servers at the same time, so I don't think its MTA 1.1. His server got blocked by my scripts due to security issues, since he tried to overwrite his own databases, his own banlist and another file I don't remember with old versions. Thats why the SVN-backstabber script blocked his server and the new maps didn't upload. 1.1 still has big issues though. I'll report an assertion error today.

there is a reproduceable crash with the sounds.

Switched all servers to MTA 1.1. Actually, they were switched.

That still doesn't solve the clantag stealing.

What I can do is a http forward from "my website" to the host website, register some random domain name and put it in front of my server. But "chaos.de" is already in use and "chaos.com", "chaos.org", "chaos.to" seems to be the same (at least it was when I tried). Well, the discussion is going a bit offtopic in my eyes. What I was trying to talk about is: What if the server is a clan server which is called "[WC] SuperCarOwnage" and the imposter tries to use "[WC]"? This actually has nothing to do with websites at all, its about the WC tag here. Also, if you try to use "WC.com" you'll have difficulties. A website in front of every server name is a bit ugly, too. Also, what about those guys who use "gtamtaddctoiletpaperanalfartboots[...]communitynameWC"? Thats why I came to the resolution to have "official" servers again. That would mean a human has to register that server name (with the IP / or DNS name, it wouldn't matter in that case since any random website name is ok) somewhere in a list that can be downloaded via http and hosted somewhere as a simple .xml or .txt file. Its not an issue that needs instant reaction anyways, if you register an official server 10 hours "too late" it won't matter. Also, it doesn't need to be forcefully implemented on MTA 1.1, MTA 1.1.1 would be fine, too. After all its just an idea.

I don't host the website. I HATE php and sql. I throw up every time I see it. So I let the website be hosted by a professional host, hoping he got the backups I'll never want to make. Also, I'm not the victim here. If someone names his servers after mine, I don't care. He'll never be able to copy them.

Not really. I never put my homepage on my host server. That means chaos.de.to has a different IP than my servers. Also, what happens if you reinstall MTA and the "fake" servers get detected earlier then the normal ones? The "name list" would be pretty much like your "official servers". On the other hand, that means I'd only put servers on that list that have had an community for more then 6 months.

Thats just an idea but: You could put the IP of well-visited communities in a whitelist, and give them a different color. This way the "fake" servers can be separated from the "good" servers just by color.

It wasn't a problem for me, the libraries.

Because MTA is lacking developers.

70 Players is a lot - you need to have 1) Luck 2) Several good scripters 3) A Script people actually want to play. I know many people who are good scripters and don't have any players, since they didn't hit the nerve. Compare it to russian roulette: you have an idea, but will it shoot?

250 gb per month is much for a server with an average of 10 players.

No problems from my point, except the fact that some objects are rotated in a weird way when you move them via script.
