What's wrong with Windows 8? It's pretty much the same as Windows 7, except that it's newer, faster and should be updated for a longer time than Windows 7.

There is no need for spamming this thread with repeated " +1 " posts and counting the votes manually. We will be the ones who will do the counting when the time is right. Also, please keep in mind that we might not pick a moderator for this section at all, unless there is a worthy candidate for the job. That said, thanks for the feedback so far.

If you are hosting the server yourself and your connection has a dynamic IP address assignment, then there is not much you can do about it. To keep your server on a single IP address, you might have to rent a server from some hosting company - like the ones listed here: http://www.multitheftauto.com/hosters/

Na dobrą sprawę nie ma tutaj znaczenia, czy serwer ma stałe czy zmienne IP. Ważne, żeby były odblokowane porty dla serwera, a ponadto, żeby było włączone rozgłaszanie serwera w Internecie (opcja ASE w pliku mtaserver.conf). https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Se ... forwarding Można to sprawdzić tutaj: https://nightly.multitheftauto.com/ports/ (oczywiście w przypadku serwera działającego na łączu o zmiennym ip, niezbędne jest jego zrestartowanie w momencie, gdy zmienił się adres ip)

Tak. Można je znaleźć na poniższych stronach: http://files.mtasa.com/apps/ http://code.google.com/p/mtasa-blue/dow ... nloadCount http://code.google.com/p/multitheftauto ... nloadCount https://nightly.multitheftauto.com

You might want to make these forum topics publicly visible, as I can not even browse them. It does not make any sense to force people to register on your website just so they can read the basic information about the cups. Not to mention that this also discourages new teams from participating in those events. Good luck otherwise. The MTA:SA community could use some more competitive gaming activities.

Maybe it didn't set the protocol properly - you can verify it by using 22003/22126 as HTTP port in the port testing page (and in the server config) - if it's forwarded just as a TCP port it will say it works okay. Try setting the protocol to UDP for these two ports (22003/22126) manually in your router settings and see if it works.

What error message are you getting?

Did you change the project to 'New issues' ? You can select it by using the list on the top right corner of the page.

You might want to start with this first: https://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=31668

Okay, please do. I have set it so you can submit translations to Hindi directly now.

It looks like pootle does not support Urdu language at the moment - pretty much the same issue as the one with Tunisian. Not sure how to add it.

Yes, submit them as suggestions for each line you think needs correcting.

Thanks for these suggestions. I will also keep in mind your moderator offers.

We have decided to open a new subforum for our Chinese-speaking players. Feel free to participate in it and tell your friends about it. Please let me know if the forum name needs correcting (right now it should be Simplified Chinese, but I would like to use more general term - just 'Chinese language' or something). We are also looking for moderators to help us manage this forum. Candidates are required to know both Chinese and English languages pretty well, so they can smoothly communicate with us and the community. -- Translation provided by cocowen 我们决定为中国玩家开放一个子板块,希望大家踊跃参与并转告你们的朋友 请告诉我论坛的中文名称是否准确(目前子板块名称是简体中文,但是我希望能够更加的常规一点,比如'中文语言'或者其他的翻译) 同时我们也在寻找制作组帮助我们管理论坛,候选人需要同时有比较好的英文和中文,这样我们才能更好的交流,也能更好的在论坛交流.

You can also use the new Chinese subforum: viewforum.php?f=169 Please let me know if the forum name is wrong (right now it should be Simplified Chinese, but I would like to use more general term - just 'Chinese language' or something) and I will correct it.

You probably were not logged in, as I can see that there are a bunch of suggestions listed for Croatian, rather than submissions.

The following languages were just added and are now available for translating: Chinese (zh-CN), Czech, Estonian, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Persian

All of the languages requested above are now available for translating.

It should be available for translating now. If there is any other language you want to provide your translations for, please let us know.

Considering the popularity of our Other languages forums and few other aspects, no, it does not seem like a waste of time. Anyway, please be patient. We will release more details about this when we are ready.

Updated for MTA:SA 1.3.2 and added instructions for recently released Debian 7.0 "Wheezy".

It has nothing to do with the spammers... not directly, anyway.

How to install the MTA:SA Linux server on Debian 6.0 (squeeze) and 7.0 (wheezy) on both 32 and 64bit flavours Here is the tutorial for installing MTA:SA linux server on a freshly installed Debian 6.0 (also named squeeze) or Debian 7.0 (wheezy). This tutorial covers both the 32bit and the 64bit flavours of these Debian OSes. Note: this tutorial is based on a MTA:SA 1.3.1 / 1.3.2 server, but it should be fine for future versions as well. Just edit the version numbers accordingly and use correct URLs for newer files. Requirements In order to install MTA:SA linux server, you need to have a Debian 6.0 or 7.0 linux machine with shell access (ssh). It does not matter whether it is physical or virtual, however a physical dedicated server is recommended for performance. Minimal hardware server requirements: * Intel/AMD (x86-compatible) CPU with at least 1.0GHz of core speed * at least 192MB of RAM * at least 200MB of free disk space * an active network connection with all the needed ports opened - server can be set up to run on LAN or on the Internet You will also need a root access for installing system packages. If you do not have it, you can ask your server administrator to install the packages for you - that should be fine as well as it is just a one-time action. Lastly, you should have some basic knowledge of the Linux operating system in order to install and use your MTA:SA server on Linux. I will explain most of the commands in shell code comments - #comment, but I assume that you already know how to perform simple file operations (such as copying, renaming, deleting or editting files) on a Linux shell prompt. 1. How to find out which OS flavour you have Simply log in to your shell account, then type this command in the shell prompt: uname -a; #show operating system information cat /etc/debian_version; #show Debian version number If you have a 32-bit Debian 6.0, this is what you will get: However if you have a 64-bit Debian 6.0, you will get this: It looks a bit different for Debian 7.0: 32bit: 64bit: In summary, if you get i686 in a uname -a reply, it means you have a 32bit Debian, and if you get x86_64 - it means it is a 64-bit Debian. If you receive a different reply (like armel, mips or other) , you can not run the mtasa server. 2. Installing the required software packages Okay, now that you know what OS version and flavour you have, you have to install the needed system packages to your Debian. You can find the instructions for each version below. a) Debian 6.0 "squeeze" The steps are the same for both flavours. 32-bit - list of required packages 64-bit - list of required packages You need to have root permissions to do the following commands. Use the right list as shown above instead of LIST_OF_PACKAGES (if you have a 32bit Debian, you only install the packages listed for 32bit; if you have 64bit Debian, you only install the packages list for 64bit): apt-get update; #first, lets update the list of packages apt-get upgrade; #upgrade the currently installed packages if needed; type Y when asked apt-get -y install LIST_OF_PACKAGES; #install the required packages for your flavour b) Debian 7.0 "wheezy" The steps are different for 32 bit and 64 bit flavours: * 32bit - list of required packages You need to have root permissions to do the following commands. Use the list shown above instead of LIST_OF_PACKAGES: apt-get update; #first, lets update the list of packages apt-get upgrade; #upgrade the currently installed packages if needed; type Y when asked apt-get -y install LIST_OF_PACKAGES; #install the required packages -------------------- * 64-bit - list of required packages You need to have root permissions to do the following commands. Use the list shown above instead of LIST_OF_PACKAGES: apt-get update; #first, lets update the list of packages apt-get upgrade; #upgrade the currently installed packages if needed; type Y when asked dpkg --add-architecture i386; #add the i386 architecture so the ia32-libs package can be installed apt-get update; #update the list of packages so the ia32-libs package is included in the list apt-get -y install LIST_OF_PACKAGES; #install the required packages (eg. 'apt-get -y install zip unzip ia32-libs lib32ncursesw5 lib32readline5 screen' for 32bit debian.) Additional packages might be needed for the third party server modules. Should you want to use one, please consult the documentation for such module to find out which packages are required. 3. Installing the MTA:SA server You are now ready to install the MTA:SA server application to your machine. Go to your home directory and download the server files. You can find the most up-to-date needed files here: http://linux.multitheftauto.com/ (linux server, config files and resources) Make sure to modify the version numbers and URLs! cd ~; #go to your home directory mkdir mtasa; #create a directory for the mtasa server cd mtasa; #go to the newly created directory #-INSERT CORRECT URLs HERE- wget -O mtasa-linux-server.tar.gz [url=http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/132/multitheftauto_linux-1.3.2.tar.gz;]http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/132/multithef ... .2.tar.gz;[/url] #download the main MTA:SA linux server archive and save it as mtasa-linux-server.tar.gz wget [url=http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/132/baseconfig.tar.gz;]http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/132/baseconfig.tar.gz;[/url] #download the server config files wget -O mtasa-resources.zip [url=http://mtasa-resources.googlecode.com/files/mtasa-resources-r926.zip;]http://mtasa-resources.googlecode.com/f ... -r926.zip;[/url] #download the server resources archive and save it as mtasa-resources.zip #----------------------------------- tar -zxf mtasa-linux-server.tar.gz; #uncompress the MTA:SA server archive mv multitheftauto_linux-1.3.2 mtasa-server; #renames the server directory unzip -q mtasa-resources.zip -d mtasa-server/mods/deathmatch/resources/; #uncompress the server resources to the correct MTA:SA server directory tar -zxf baseconfig.tar.gz; #uncompress default server configuration files mv baseconfig/* mtasa-server/mods/deathmatch; #move default server configuration files to the correct MTA:SA server directory rmdir baseconfig; #remove a now empty directory rm baseconfig.tar.gz mtasa-resources.zip mtasa-linux-server.tar.gz; #removes the installation files - they are not needed anymore 4. Configuring the server You should configure the server before you run it. Go to your home directory ( ~/ ), then go to mtasa/mtasa-server/mods/deathmatch directory. If you are unsure how to do it, you can use the description below: cd ~; #go to your home directory cd mtasa/mtasa-server/mods/deathmatch; #go to the newly created directory nano mtaserver.conf; #start the NANO text editor and load the mtaserver.conf file Now make some changes to the file (eg. change the server name), then save it by holding the Control key, then pressing the O key. You will be asked for a filename - just press the Enter key to overwrite the file. However, if you made a mistake and do not want to save the file, hold the Control key and press C key, then hold Control key, press X key, and then N key. You can start over by launching the nano editor again as above. Once you have configured the server, you are ready to start it. 5. Running the server cd ~; #go to your home directory cd mtasa/mtasa-server/; #go to the mtasa server directory ./mta-server; #start the server If it works okay, it will look like this: (the text 'Server started and is ready to accept connections' will be shown in the console) Alright, now if you disconnect from the shell, your server will be stopped as well. If you want to keep your server to be running when you log out from your shell, you need to stop it now by typing 'quit' in the server console (or by pressing Control key, then C / Ctrl+C). Start it instead by using this: cd ~; #go to your home directory cd mtasa/mtasa-server/; #go to the mtasa server directory screen -dmS mtasa ./mta-server; #start the server using the SCREEN application - screen name: mtasa, start screen in background This will make the server start in the background. If you need to open the server console, you can do that by using this command: screen -r PROCESS_ID #reattaches to the specified screen session To find out the screen process id, you can use screen -ls command: (if there is just one screen running, you can reattach to it by just using the screen -r command) If you need to put your server to keep running in the background again, you can detach from your screen session by using the Ctrl+A+D hotkey, or just by closing PuTTY. To stop the server, reattach to your screen session and type 'quit' in the server console (might want to repeat it few times if it does not work), then type 'exit' in the screen session console. If the server has crashed, you need to stop the screen session the server is running in. Use the screen -ls command to find the process id of the session, then use the kill PROCESS_ID to stop it (or kill -9 PROCESS_ID if it did not stop it). 6. Finished! That is all. Your MTA:SA server is all set up and running properly. Please make sure you read the general Server Manual wiki article to understand how the server works and how to use it.
