Yeah, but besides memory leaks that can also be a server with (a lot of) unoptimized scripts, models/textures. Usually a combination of unoptimized stuff.

If you want to learn more, join MTA discord and read the pinned post in #general (the one written by me), @kecsmar

so are you saying Mta can't handle high quality mods? my server is 4gb it crashes every 20 mins and my server has 21GB ram! why can't it just not crash lol can't we just play with unoptimised models? clearly server handles them pretty well it's just MTA that crashes

Host is 21GB of ram, my Pc is 16GB of ram. i wanna know where's the issue exactly so i could fix it, everyone in the server crashes after playing for 10 mins. can't last an hour (that sounds mad)

Thanks.

Out of video memory. This can happen on servers with unoptimized mods and (faulty) scripts that abuse video memory, or even when you have a powerful graphics card in case the stuff on a server is extremely unoptimized so that it starts hitting GTA limits. If you have a powerful graphics card and more players suffer from this crash type, inform the server owner of this problem as it probably means their scripters & designers don't know what they are doing.

i'm the server owner, what resource could do this potentially? there's many mods and vehicles and skins. i guess that's a GTA limit because server's host is super powerful as i said.

now this crash:

You most likely crashed as a result of memory problems. This can happen when you are using a mid-tier PC to play on a server loaded with heavy mods, unoptimized scripts, or just as often a combination of both. DISCLAIMER: some players would argue that their PC is good enough and has plenty of RAM memory, like 6GB or more. So much that they don't expect to run out of memory. So here's the story - GTA SA is an old game from 2005, and you can run MTA with hardware from that era on most decent servers with ease. But servers that are not decent, but "bad" in the sense described earlier, are able to turn this old game into a more demanding one than modern titles. One that even hits limits of this 2005 game, which wasn't designed for what is being done. We mean that any usage on gta_sa.exe above 3.2GB, even if you have much more RAM memory available, will not be stable.

SOLUTIONS:

• Find another server to play on
• Upgrade your PC's hardware (most important is the amount of RAM memory) and perform some OS mainentance, limit the amount of processes using up memory.
• If you're on a 32-bit OS, install a 64-bit version. For more information, please read https://forum.mtasa.com/topic/78081-32-bit-windows-crashing/

If being able to play on a certain server is really important to you, and you decide to upgrade, then please note that unless you get a gaming PC, depending on the severity things are "bad" on said server, it might only extend the duration you can play at once without crashing. If things are bad enough, you can crash within an hour from connecting while using the baddest gaming PC available. Example: a lot of russian total conversion servers. If you cannot upgrade your PC or improve your situation by one of the above steps, then unfortunately there's no option other than mind the (type of) servers you're playing on.

well... i just said my server is super powerful with 21gb of ram, and my pc is made for gaming too (16gb ram) and a great gpu, the crashing is an mta problem, could be  a bad resource maybe? it's def not the server i just said. i wanna know how can i fix it. it must be a resource mta don't like
