HELP PLS ---> ? about gta3.img

[Guest]

does mta:vc 0.5 need an unmodified gta3.img to run properly (as in no addon cars)? I'm getting the "i have a modified client and i should reinstall" error and i have reinstalled mta 3 times, tried multiple exe's, set the version to either 1.0/1.1, and have tried replacing weapon.dat/weapon.mta (basically everything i can think of except reinstalling gta vc) Any help please?

Any modifications dont support MTA as in like you said addon cars etc.

Is modding carcols.dat (color of cars, its easy, open it in notepad and choose your color.) and removing replay text as in american.gxt modding MTA?

[Guest]

o yeah, like kenny said, I also tweaked some of the ini files (handling, carcols, surface) are these included as "modding" gta so it wont work with mta?

Yeah, you need a clean install. If you want to keep your mods, reinstall GTA to a second directory and keep that one clean for MTA.

MTA needs to run on a non modded version of GTA so basically dont touch anything or change any files around etc.

all right ty every1 so far, now i got a clean install of both gta vc and mta 0.5, but after i get in the game and load the level it will either ctd directly or give me the "not taking error reports" error. I looked on the known issues thread and I tried the 1.1 vc patch, but it didn't help. HELP PLS!

Yeah, you need a clean install. If you want to keep your mods, reinstall GTA to a second directory and keep that one clean for MTA.

I dont have any handling files modded. carcols.dat just changes the vehicle color that spawns on the road on GTA, and replay text remover is just american.gxt edit. Is this a modded version (i have this version in another directory)

I'd say it was modified, but I don't know if MTA checks those files. If it does work, it might cause instability though.
