Guest Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Read the title... Loads of people have the no-cd version of san andreas because it is simply easier to use that way, and if MTA doesn't work with it then there's a whole lot of people who are missing out. I see so many people who have tried everything to get mta to work and have failed because of a certain 'mod' they have to the game i.e. the no-cd patch. Just make it work with the patch!

MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted September 16, 2006 MTA Team Share Posted September 16, 2006 We do not endorse illegal activities. Link to comment
Jani Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Why would they want to make it work? Answer these first: Do Rockstar provide a no-cd crack with GTA? No. Do they advertise that such cracks exist? No. Do they condone them? No. Do they support them? No. Do no-cd cracks violate GTA's EULA? Yes. Why would the MTA team want to spend extra time coding their game to work on cracked exe files? Not only are they illegal but it also wouldn't make them very popular with Rockstar. Since you have the legal version of the game, just use the DVD to play it. If it's really that much of an inconveniance, just make an image of the DVD on your hard drive and mount it whenever you want to play the game. Or if you're REALLY pissed about it, go and make your own mod. Link to comment
MrJax Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I'm not sure how legal no-cd cracks are, I thought they were ok aslong as you had the original, but all versions of MTA havn't had anything to stop no-cd cracks, they only check the versions for compatibility. Link to comment

erorr404 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I don't care about no cd cracks, but it would be unprofessional of MTA to endorse something that may not be legal (or at least that R* might not like), which is what they'd be doing if they added special compatibility to cracks that the original game did not have.

lil Toady Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Downgrade doesnt modify original SA files, it just replaces the files with few from a previous version, but that are still GTA SA original files. And not everyone had to downgrade the game, some bought it before v1.01 or v2.0 did release Link to comment
Jani Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 sorry for another post, but you seem to have forgotten that we have all had to DOWNGRADE from the retail version... they didn't support modifications for a reason. so, you just got pwnt... by yourself. The downgrade patch ONLY uses original GTA files, no modified stuff. Plus, you can't extract enough data from it to make the full EXE, therefore it's perfectly legal. Oh and by the way, the downgrade patch just downgrades the LEGAL 1.1 or 2.0 to the LEGAL 1.0 Link to comment
Harry Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Do to the legal status of MTA we will never support illegal CD cracks. Topic is sliding off-topic and will be closed therefor. Link to comment
