When you try starting San Andreas, does the CD drive at least try to read the disk? Also, after installing San Andreas, do you see the folder "GTA San Andreas User Files" in your documents? And if so, does it contain the file "gta_sa.set" that eAi was talking about? It sounds like a file could be missing, because I remember my other GTA games not starting after it could not find a file.

I know this sounds dumb, but have you inspected your San Andreas disk, and made sure its clean, and without scratches? I have heard of people playing a game, and their dusty CD drive got the disk dirty.

Is there anyway for you to check if its a registry problem?

Have you rebooted your computer after reinstalling?

Its an odd situation here, you said that GTA:SA alone doesn't work. Have you tried uninstalling GTA:SA and MTA, and then only installing GTA:SA and playing Single Player?

Have you scanned for viruses, and have you downloaded from an official mirror?

Yes, pointing the finger solves the problem faster. Lemme ask you, did you ever install any other mods, or cracks?

Ok, well then, synced traffic lights should be an optional feature. It would be great in RPG servers. But in DeathMatch servers, where sometimes competitions are held, then they should be disabled server-side. In RPG people want the realism, and in DeathMatch servers, people want the bandwidth. And like I said before if they cannot be synced, then stop lights should be disabled, or, always green.

A: theres a big bag of weed on page 200 of blast, so everyone spam to page 200 so we can get the big bag of weed before Shadey smokes it all Q:Can we be invited to Rob's WTFBBQ!?!? before it starts snowing?

I think anyone who's been playing games long enough knows that what gives games long live spans is good game play, not good graphics.... kind of like Super Mario Brothers, the graphics are bad, the characters look like lumps of poop with mustaches, but the game play is simple and great...theres nothing like stepping on turtles and kicking them, or jumping though green tubes.

maybe Ill impove the first post a little more

I thought after they fix the DM, they will then start on the SDK...

Sorry Theoden, I am not familiar with MTA:mA scripting, so I cannot help you.

Hmm, sounds interesting, I wounder what kindof ideas people will have for DeathMatch maps... they were so creative with the Race Mod editor...

oh I see.

Theoden you are always having scripting problems aren't you? Wheres Aeron, or lil' Toady, they are always fixin' problems.

Good idea, but some script help is very specific, and some topics may not contain the information needed to slove the problem, or implement a new feature. This topic is always gonna be filled with simular topics, and will always look spammy. (Can't promise that, it may become non-spammy, after a Aeron robot clone is made for every MTA:Ma scripter in the world...)

Why yes, Vice City is more popular than GTA3, and you can always find people playing it. If your new, then stay out of the deathmatch servers for awhile until you get used to MTA. When you go on those servers people will try to kill you know matter where you are or what you are doing.

Woah watch it there, no warez talk on these forums. If you want a crack, go elsewhere for info. If you have a slow CD-ROM, patching the game should help a little.

Yeah thats what i was thinking. It has to be a simple design.

Hey maybe this should be stickied as a possible solution to the list not working

Yeah, I went digging through old general MTA discussion topics, and I noticed how people back in the day seemed to appreciate the work of the MTA team. These days some people are expecting too much, and are complaining. But remember theres always people out there asking for more, even when they have everything they want. So don't worry, there is always alot of good in this community, its just sometimes hard to see.

maybe! sorry i'm new in the forum No problem, thats what the moderators are for. I see your presenting Multi Theft Auto to your forums Cesar, looks good.

Shouldn't this be in the Gang related topic?

i know that Its just that DMA seemed to research into the crime of grand theft auto, and i also wanted to show what the inside cover of the old GTA looked like, i cannot say it was the original, since there was many different versions (different languages)
