Guest Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Hello, I think this is a way to use MTA:SA Race on vista. Im not sure if it works because im running XP. I Have used vista, but installed XP because MTA Didnt work, i will install vista when DM is out. But here is the idea: - Right clik on Multi Theft Auto.exe and GTASA.exe - Click Properties - And look at the up of the windows, you'll see compatibility. - Select "Execute this program : Windows XP Service Pack 2" I got the idea from the SA-MP Solution. (With sa-mp this works) I Hope this works. Maybe someone can test this?
Guest Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Nice idea, but I tried it with absolutely no luck Also tried forcing it to run as administrator each time, without any differences.
Brophy Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I dont see why everyone is falling into the hole of upgrading to vista at this time, its not like they have everything supported on it yet
zion Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Hmm When i was on the web i did find something SPECIAL for you guys what is having vista! It is from http://www.mmorpg.com . But It is all true! IT realy sucks! I can say it slows down your computer. You will see the computer is working HARD whits it! Here is the link ---> http://www.mmorpg.com/showFeature.cfm/loadFeature/1120
Guest Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I can say it slows down your computer. You will see the computer is working HARD whits it! Ignoring the fact that you just chewed up the English language and spat it out, I've only experienced two issues with Vista so far, and those are: My shitty (mostly unused) Bluetooth dongle isn't supported MTA:SA Race doesn't work I have a feeling (although I'm not familiar with the workings of MTA) that it's something to do with the fact that MTA effectively 'hacks' into GTA through the modification of memory values, and Vista isn't happy about MTA writing to memory addresses belonging to processes other than itself. Also, Vista only slows down the PC because it's more graphically complex. In actual fact, they've made considerable alteration to the Windows kernel, specifically with respect to process management, that ensures that processes are guaranteed a certain amount of time using the CPU, which overall speeds up the system.
zion Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Ignoring the fact that you just chewed up the English language and spat it out. f... you. Realy i dont cear about wtf you are saying! i AM saying IT on MY WAY!! So dont cear about what i say! My :~ (mostly unused) Bluetooth dongle isn't supported MTA:SA Race doesn't work If i was you i will have readed more on that site i have postet!... PS: And i will wait to SP1 comes, before i UPDATE to MS Win Vista! And many other peoples will wait for SP1! Sorry for my language IN THIS POST!
Brophy Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 zion, do you use a translator or something? and why do you have to end every sentance like you are shouting for attention "!" The reason race doesnt work with vista is one of two things, its either the Microsoft's Foundation Classes used in the mta center stuff or the anti-cheat, either way it will be resolved for dm
Guest Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I hope that's a promise I guess us Vista users will just have to sit tight... and play Trackmania for hours and hours and hours
BadNinja Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 i think MTA should come with a patch for vista users
Winky Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 i think MTA should come with a patch for vista users No not for MTA:SA Race anymore!
BadNinja Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 i think MTA should come with a patch for vista users No not for MTA:SA Race anymore! and why not?
Guest Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I got mine ... almost working ... umm.... I have Windows Vista Home Premium and ... - Right clik on Multi Theft Auto.exe - Click Properties - And look at the up of the windows, you'll see compatibility. - Select "Execute this program : Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5)" - Just in case check the administrator box but now ... i got the "Error of the core dump files" so ... can some one help me whit the core dump s*it
Guest Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 then .... WHY DA F*CK WONT YOU MAKE A PATCH FOR IT TO WORK ???
*SmartiE* Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 because they have more important things to work on, IE MTA:SA Deathmatch. But if they were working on MTA Race i bet you would be bitching about MTA:SA DM. Am i correct?
musho Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 OMG guys what if mta:dm will not be supported for VISTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BadNinja Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 No....becauseMTA:RACE ISNT SUPPORTED ON VISTA Look assholl ! ! you can atleast try to help so that vista users dont have to come up here!!
Guest Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I thinks the problems it with the client.dll because on vista if you rename the client dll to some thing like asdkajsdk.dll then go back to ur folder aright click and run as admin you will be able to get to the menu of mta sa but u cannot connect to the servers because dll isnt loaded so if some one woudl maby fix the dll to inject after the exe started not when its begin intialaized meaby it woudl work i dunno but that way you can get to the menu .
ScorpioNGamer Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 But,everyone can run MTA Map Editor...for other ,use SA-MP on Vista ! If u just need Map Editor,on install of MTA SA Race choose just Map Editor!
Mr.Hankey Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 MTA:DM acutally DOES work on vista and there is at least one server that has a good race gamemode running so there's no need to switch over to this other mp-mod
