Super sizing stuff just like that if its possible.

I think it's done with this:

Note that it's client-side! More about that over here:

Sorry, but to be honest the goliath in that screenshot is not an actual player . One of the QA members extracted the ped model and made it into a new object, then placed that object ingame and made it larger (with setObjectScale indeed). So it's just a stationary model, it didn't even have a collision mesh.

You can get the server on the download page. Once you've installed it you probably want to look at the server manual to set it up. Scripts go in what MTA calls "resources", you can read more about those here. Good luck!

(Also, DP3 will have a "host game" button which will instantly start an integrated server. That will save you the installing and configuration. For now you have to do it yourself though.)
