Sam Fisher Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I saw a great mod on one of the GTA modding sites. It's name is GTA United and if I'm right it adds liberty and vice city to san andreas and you can travel between them. Will it be possible in any of the upcoming versions of MTA to include LC and VC somehow?
50p Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 It could be possible, but it may take some time to replace those objects. It's not (and will not) be possible to ADD new object, you can only replace the in-game objects.
DiSaMe Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 I don't know if I'm right or mistaken. My idea: somebody creates server for users with this mod. Players install the mod into GTA SA and join the server. Is it possible?
[TTH]BiZkiT Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Its not possible cause you would change your "Gta Sa data"
capitanazop Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 is possible but you need create al city`s again and i other place.
DiSaMe Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Its not possible cause you would change your "Gta Sa data" What does "Changed GTA SA data" mean to MTA?
Winky Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Its not possible cause you would change your "Gta Sa data" What does "Changed GTA SA data" mean to MTA? MTA doesnt edit the GTA files it uses the memory to do functions.
Sam Fisher Posted June 14, 2008 Author Posted June 14, 2008 It will be a very hard and long work to reproduce the two city... Can it be possible somehow to convert it from the GTA United mod to MTA?
Cazomino05 Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 gta united is an incredibly big mod... considering the file size even of just the textures and models it is going to be hard to do
DiSaMe Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Did somebody see my post? Why couldn't MTA run when game is modified?
50p Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Did somebody see my post? Why couldn't MTA run when game is modified? Because modifying a game is treated as "cheating"?
DiSaMe Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Did somebody see my post? Why couldn't MTA run when game is modified? Because modifying a game is treated as "cheating"? That would be really stupid. Of course, some people say that because they don't know what is cheating
50p Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 "Cheating" word has spread out over time in on-line gaming. Imagine: you've modified a game, you have a "road to heaven" (a road leading to the sky) that ONLY you can see and therefore ONLY you can use... is that fair? No, so that is treated as "cheating". Everything that gives only you an advantage and is meant to help you play is cheating, because only you can use that advantage not everyone on the server. Do you understand now? I don't think so... And that's why MTA Team give possibilities such as createObject on server-side, which gives everyone the same advantage of using the objects. Hopefully you'll change your way of thinking now.

This is why all users in the server must have original map OR the same map mod
50p Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 ....This is why all users in the server must have original map OR the same map mod Do you know what I was referring to? I don't think you do Did somebody see my post? Why couldn't MTA run when game is modified? Because modifying a game is treated as "cheating"? And didn't I said: ...that's why MTA Team give possibilities such as createObject on server-side, which gives everyone the same advantage of using the objects. ... Sometimes it's difficult to understand posts without reading the whole topic, I know...
DiSaMe Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 But why should somebody create a script with changing models, putting objects instead of making a server for players with GTA United mod installed?
norby89 Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 because MTA doesn't support mods, it's that simple, however you can create your own city using scripting and have players download the clientside files from a site before they play on your server

Jesus... "doesn't give possibility" to use mods or "doesn't allow" to play with mods or "MTA developers don't like mods"... Just come to term mta is not supposed to be played with mods.
Sam Fisher Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Looks great but how can I include it in MTA?
[TTH]BiZkiT Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Why you guys dont read and ask the same questions over and over? 1. Its not an option to modify gta sa data and play Mta with it, it wouldnt be legal either (copyrights) Rockstargames 2.Only way to do is replace the existing models by scripting it that way you wont have to change original data wich makes it legal
DiSaMe Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Looks great but how can I include it in MTA? You don't have to include it in MTA. MTA has nothing with it. I think it would be best to make gamemode or gamemode map for this mod and also make some script that checks if player has the mod installed by using collision checking functions in some places. Why you guys dont read and ask the same questions over and over?1. Its not an option to modify gta sa data and play Mta with it, it wouldnt be legal either (copyrights) Rockstargames 2.Only way to do is replace the existing models by scripting it that way you wont have to change original data wich makes it legal 1.Playing GTA SA with GTA United installed doesn't break copyrights. Playing MTA SA doesn't break copyrights. Then WHY WOULD IT BE ILLEGAL to play MTA SA with GTA United installed? 2.And players would have to download hundreds of megabytes of data from the server.
Simbad de Zeeman Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 2.And players would have to download hundreds of megabytes of data from the server. Like in all very well synced multiplayer games.
