I seem to look this up almost bi-weekly, and never for myself. Anyway, what Jon said will work, but it has to be done each time you start MTA. Here's the permanent fix: Happy gaming!

You don't need a mod to walk, it's analog controlled-speed, need a mod if you use a digital pad or keyboard. Anyway, GTA's analog sensitivity is really high so if a joy's perfectly calibrated for other games, GTA might pick it up as slightly forward, I use a logitech wingman pad, dual-shock, and the sticks tend to recalibrate in game if I use them. Best bet is to recal slightly below what it is now, or just unplug if you don't use it much.

Er, yeah, forgot to cover that, thanks. And I said nothing about changing the game itself, just games modes I.E. irc scripts or options.

The firefights are short enough as is when it comes to the experienced players and it doesn't take much to learn how to put someone down almost instantly. However, I wouldn't mind seeing game modes later on that decrease the weapon damage for longer, more intense shooutouts, and increase the damage, like a sim mode where even a well placed shot from a pistol is lethal. Also, taking out the knockdown effect from weapons like the shotguns and on some occasions, the m60, or the animation itself (if possible). No other MP game uses a knockdown, and everyone who plays MTA knows how frustrating it can be to get knocked down, only to see yourself get up slowly in front of a stubby barrel. (And yes, I do use this tactic too. I'm not just a victim, I'm also a client.)

A few days ago I started thinking, has anyone thought of making an away script? I.E. Player types !away, and set something under mta.join and mta.text to the effect of "$2 is AFK"?

I think extra animations would be neat, but don't see much use for anything like sitting outside of rpg. Cuz dammit, I wanna sit at the Malibu, not stand/crouch on the tables! Heh heh

I heard cMc is a cheat clan. Not saying they ALL are, but this one definately is: [cMc]JaX (216.146.241.191) Popped into my server, teleported right to me and was shooting while moving alongside my mule.

Open the MTAserver.conf file (in the MTA folder) in notepad, and scroll down until you get to the line: a)#ASE, and change 1 to 0 disable it so no one will be able to join via ASE or b)#serverpassword enabled, change 0 to 1 to enable it, then the section underneath (#serverpassword) add this line to the end; serverpassword "" without the < and >. And in future, to avoid getting flamed, read the manuals found on mtavc.com or use the search button on near the top of the forums page before making a post.

That's by far the best way I've seen it said.

True enough, I totally overlooked this. Still, this gives them the right to resort to name-calling and general asshattery?

Any server = just like everyone else. Your own server = power. And having power doesn't mean having to be fair, apparently. Example, last night I joined the KBK server (like I have been for 2, 3 days prior) to hang out, and fellow FKU member Officer was there, and with his extra experience, had 7 kills over the 3 KBK players, which is a fledgling clan. I was there a few minutes, and Officer, AmaiNeko (my wife, not FKU), someone by the name of Dr.Death and myself were all booted. I rejoined, and HSR (admin) said "All FKU leave", I replied with "Your loss" and left. I reread the log afterward, and saw that I was accused of spying (I guess the few days I'd spent prior during their "clan tests"), which I don't get why cuz I only attacked when attacked, and I wasn't with FKU the first few times I was there, I was still BNS, and I was just hanging out cuz I knew Smoochy before he joined them. MTA should have NetNanny or Adult Goldpass or something run with it, leave the kids to go play CS or something.

Fleh, too much work for a server I only run for a few hours every couple days. Thanks for trying though guys, much appreciated.

The html setting for sigs must still be on cuz my sig pic was still working, and I did try the bbcode Xenex, it didn't work. And like I said, I used the proper HTML elsewhere and it works fine, didn't add an extension, and I don't think mtaservers has a link ending in an extension.

Hey, I've tried to add a MTA server pic into my sig, but it just shows as html. I've put it elsewhere using the html which you'll probably see below and it works fine, and I also tried it in BBcode, same thing. Any ideas on what may be wrong?

Look, as much as I hate power-hungry, disrespectful players/admins, I'm totally against this. Anyone who's gone to that server just to PO some n00bs, you realize you're doing exactly the same thing that cheaters do? Pop in a server, harrass people, that's it, same parasitic behaviour. And that's the way the cookie crumbles. Booyah.

There is a bug (or was, I haven't seen anything saying it was fixed) that causes MTA to crash if someone gets on a driverless bike as a passenger, or when the driver gets off (or in my girlfriends case when she drives, gets thrown off, lol), though the latter seems to be random, I've lucked out the last few times and managed to stay on without my game crashing.

I dunno about the first problem (dunno if you got it or not) but as for the mta_dll.dll problem... http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... mtadll+dll Search is a wonderful thing.

I'd agree with Jon completely, but this has happened to me too on a small RPG server. (Yes, I do play RPG the odd time. -,-) Anyway, I spawned as a robber, apparently everyone else saw me as a cop, and I had cops chasing me. I shot two of them down, had someone say I was a traitor and got kicked, reconnected to explain myself, got laughed at by an admin before I had the chance to talk and was banned. So it's either as Jon said, someone who suspected someone of cheating, or just a power-hungry kid. FYI, I wasn't accused of cheating or anything, just for being, um, out of character I guess.

When my game locks up, I press alt-tab, this'll keep the game on screen but the normal mouse pointer will show, then I'll alt-tab again and move my pointer to the middle of the screen, if it disappears it means the error window's in focus, then I hit enter, wait a few seconds and hit it again. Different method, same result.

At the risk of turning this into a spam thread... Methinks MTA causes tunnel vision, people get too excited looking for what they need they wind up missing it, and the next logical step: sign up for the forums and ask for help. It took me awhile to find the search button, all hidden away up there at the top amongst the clutter.

Um, dunno if it's possible or not, but if this is a need to be addressed in future, couldn't the reload animation be set to run when a weapon is switched to, as in cocking a weapon? Granted, I think the animation would be skippable anyway by jumping, but that in turn would leave anyone as much a sitting duck as just going through reload. Just a suggestion, but in my opinion, it's not really an issue since most people (I've seen, anyway) who switch weapons during a firefight are genuinely switching, not exploiting a glitch.

I didn't know that, I thought he meant weapon switching to skip reloading.

Not sure if this is the problem, but a fellow clansman had this problem too, the admin needs a different port number and a password in order to connect, I.E. port 2004 and w00t, also make sure the admin pass was changed from a comment to a command (delete the # where it says adminpassword) if using notepad or wordpad or whathaveyou. Hope this helps.

I usually give benefit of the doubt, but when my car gets shot to crap by an M60 from behind for 6 seconds, it makes me wonder.
