[Guest]

[Jani]

Install the client and then play.

[Guest]

cause i just got it,

so i just click the server

then it pops up in a black box then load up gta

then im in?

[Jani]

You have to click on the "Play MTA San Andreas" icon. It should be in C:\Program Files\MTA San Andreas or in Start menu\All Programs\MTA San Andreas if you've installed it to the default directories.

[Guest]

i looked for it on the start menu

and i see "MTA San Andreas"

but when i go over it it only includes

MTA server

and

uninstall MTA server

what do i do?

[Jani]

You use your common sense to install the CLIENT, and not the SERVER?

MTA:SA R1.1.1 - Client

This is the latest release of Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas R1.1.1 version. This is the only installer you need to be able to play

MTA:SA R1.1 - Dedicated Server v1.1.1

You only need to download a server if you intend to host games for other players to join. The client installer includes the windows server, so if you already have the client installer you do not need the windows server.

Our dedicated servers come in two different flavours, as you can see below. Please pick the version that suits your system.

Hahahahaha I can't believe you downloaded the server and not the client and then wondered why you couldn't play. Such a shame that people can't read.

[Guest]

THANKS

Pick a server from the server browser and play in it.

Server = The place where u can play... (by connecting to the ip)

Client = the tool u need to play on the "Server"

He did say he was a noob. You can't expect computer illiterate people to know the difference between a CLIENT and a SERVER, even if it is written on the screen in front of them.

[Harry]

Dont flame the poor guy please.

[Catzilla]

Jani, a real noob wouldn't know he's a noob.

[Guest]

Jani,

I think you were very rude to this person and in future treat people with respect not a diss. He clearly needed help not sarcasm.

[Jani]

?

If he'd posted "Do you have a direct link to the client download please?" I would have happily given him it, but since he decided to be rude and demand things without asking nicely, I decided to reply in a similar manner.

[erorr404]

You heard wrong. You can play two-player on consoles though (not online).

[Kamazy]

Yeah

player is posible for console but not online of any other kind of multiplayer.

There's a pick-up you can take to play 2 players for consoles.
