setting up lan server and possible co-op variants

[Guest]

hi!

i tried to set up a lan server with clan rpg 3.1.(VICE CITY)

i spent two hours working up being able to:

create a server with "mtaserverconfigtool.exe", then i was able to use the rpg.mrc by starting the mta.mrc with mirc.

i connected my server as admin data and password and ports, then connected to it as admin via "mtaserveradmin.exe".

i connected my own server with vice city through the client.exe ..

i was able to slap/kick myself with the mirc-thingy( connection established!)...

i was not able to use any !command through the "admin-tool",......

help is needed now at somehow getting the commands working...

what id LOVE to have is:

being able to play the single-player in LAN with my friend, co-op style.

or at least seeing any NPC-entities so we could fight the cops or rob a bank......

i dont care if just one player is able to do the missions, and the other is like an friendly, armed bystande(played by a human)..

it would be godlike if the second(non-hero) player was able to collect his own money and weapons(still everything in the normal, "single-player" world..

Like having the normal singleplayer map (all parts of the map access-able or via story-line), at least ne player(admin?) able to go on single-player missions, and other player(s) able to help him acomplish them.

its not necessary for them to go too on the mission(like being a body-guard for the main hero/player).

if anyone has any ideas, i'd appreciate the help,

thanks in advance for your ideas/help,

You generally can't do script commands through remote admin. Why would you want to anyway?

Never going to happen in this version, and probably not any versions in the near future.

Run MTAClient.exe and connect to a server. Tadaa, you can see the chat!

You can also see it in game in the top left corner, press T to type in there and then Enter to send your message..
