Getting kicked from servers for cheating?

[Guest]

Why am I getting kicked from servers that I have never even played on for suspected cheating? I have only played on one or two servers so far because it always says the client cannot be verified or something.

Ok, I just saw another topic that said a Hacker added them to the ban list. How can I get off the ban list. The server was |VDA| or something. And I cant remember the name of the second server I was banned from.

Make sure your game is a clean install (NO MODS) and that you have the latest version of mta:sa

I only have new car and weapon models, does that count as a mod? I dont have any mods that replace main.srm or whatever.

Yes those are mods. Mods = anything that changes the game in anyway from a stock installation

Sometimes changing the weapons models and cars models won't do much but changing things like handling or anything that will change the gameplay in anyway will get you kicked.

You won't get kicked for cheating if you're banned, but you will if you do not have a clean GTA install. Reinstall GTA from scratch and you should be fine.

weapon models possible...but car models will affect the game a LOT. different collisions of cars can cause huge crashes

just imagine changing your car-model to a oversized big blob,

redeeming all other cars away at start ^^

Ok, the data for the hotring racer is edited. Can someone the default handling.cfg and vehicles.ide on rapishare or something?

Oh yeah i didn't think about that.

i guess you can change the car models but if anyone sees something strange they will kick you.

The best way to see if a car is moded is if it's standing and kinda bouncing/vibrating a little.

So if someone sees that they'll probable kick and maybe ban you.

If you ONLY change the model of the car or weapon it should be fine, just don't change any of the data or text files or the .col files.
