# Although we are using updated netcode, the Server is designed to to scale depending on the amount of Client's that our connected.

# So, this means that the less Client's that are connected to your Server, the less bandwidth your Server will use and vice versa.

# I advise starting off at a lower number, such as 8 or 16 (or lower), and monitoring your bandwidth to determine whether it is within an

# acceptable range and then adjusting accordingly. We DO NOT accept bills for going over your monthly bandwidth usage

#

# The Following restriction only applies to Game 2 (GTA:VC), Game 1 (GTA3) still supports 32 players.

# * WARNING * - We have dropped down the Player Count to a maximum of 26 players due to some restrictions in the current methods of

# the scm. Future versions will do things a lot differently, which will allow for this to be increased once again, but for the amount

# of Server's that actually run > 24, we thought this was an acceptable limit.

You shouldnt have a problem them, make sure u connect to the right lan ip and make sure u have the server patch for the memory leak

[Guest]

the 0.5 client won't open when I haven't a connection to the Internet...this is the problem....

[Jani]

That's why you need to disable the Rich MOTD. Try opening mta.ini and adding DontGetLatest=1

[Brophy]

it should open after 60secs anyways

[Guest]

oh thank you its working
