If some1 knows it, comment pls apx AND no, there isnt a compatibilty tab in win2k properties, so how to do it? Link to comment
Guest Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet, if so - I apologize because my eyes hurt right now and I don't feel like straining them to look Anyways, the cop cars that are near the spawn when you die, just across the second bridge when you turn left, they are always locked after the first one. As in, if you got in, drove away, blew up, and went back... the rest of the cop cars to spawn would be locked. You cannot bat the door off either, I've tried. Though, it's not that big a deal since you guys pretty much put every other fun vehicle easy accessible throughout the city. Link to comment
Guest Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 I also have a problem with typing numbers, maybe it's because I assigned my shift key in VC's controls (btw using an azerty-keyboard) Link to comment
Guest Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 Theres a hole in the map behind the buildings in the blood ring, you can fit back there with a motorcycle, but you'll fall through into nothing and die eventually. Pretty funny actually Link to comment
Guest Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 I just tried to play mta vc with a friend, I could connect and play but I couldn't see my friend. He can see me, but can't kill me or wathever. I can kill him although I can't see him. Also I trashed a bike until it was burning and then tried to get back on it. When the bike exploded I was killed also but the gamed said that my friend killed me but he didn't even shoot at me or the bike. I'm using Win2000 pro (service pack 2 I believe) Link to comment
Boss Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 He probably used a trainer or mod.Cheaters are invisible and acn't hurt u.Or he's using windows 98,i heard it gives problems. Link to comment
Guest Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 he used a trainer but he reinstalled VC some time ago and he didn't use the trainer anymore. I tried a public server, and it worked just fine. My friend also joined that server and there wasn't any problem. We had the same skin/model (swat) on our own server, which is rather strange. Link to comment
Genexi2 Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 he used a trainer but he reinstalled VC some time ago and he didn't use the trainer anymore. I dont know why people bicker about the Trainer crashin MTA:VC, it works perfectly fine with it as long as you DONT use any of the spawn vehicles\weapons\skin cheats and etc, some of the cheats in the trainer I use work perfectly fine. We had the same skin/model (swat) on our own server, which is rather strange. Musta been something your server didnt pick up on makin your buddy think he was the first guy who joined when someone else already did... Boss: Cheaters are invisible and acn't hurt u. Not from my testings...like I said above, it depends on what cheats you use. (I can have my car granite-hard and invincible and others can still see me) Link to comment
Guest Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 2. Ghost Town Without any Pedestrians or Police The game just doesnt feel right. One word, TS. I really really hope the mod team doesn't give in to the majority of these "put in the pedestrians" requests because what those people don't realise is that it will push the server requirements up by 100 and the client requirements up by 10 (requirements mainly regarding internet connection). I don't think pedestrians are needed and I hope they're never put in (unless we're talking 2 years from now and the netcode is 200% perfect, then you can put it in ) Link to comment

It's no fun for everyone else on the server (and it IS possible that you're messing up their games, but can't tell) Link to comment
Rage Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Weve got a pretty damn good reason to be pissed about people using trainers. How fun is the game when you try to kill some guy for half an hour and realize he is cheating. Then along with the damn game crashes!! Why cant you cheaters just get a life Link to comment

I don't think pedestrians are needed and I hope they're never put in (unless we're talking 2 years from now and the netcode is 200% perfect, then you can put it in ) I think this was brought up earlier, but the idea that there could be an option to adjust traffic sync between computer and server might fix that. Though, this would present problems in races when someone slams into something and goes flying, but to you it just looks like a scene from Matrix Reloaded w/ cars flipping every which way for no reason what so ever.

SM Chaoswolf Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Sorry if this has been posted already but im leaving for a week vacation & I've run out of time scanning for this problem... I spent about 15min today reinstalling MTA:VC. Kept getting an error that it couldnt open files to update them. The only way I could get it to install was to uncheck "Do not create shortcuts". If you wodering why i had it checked in the first place, thats because I was reinstalling. I already had the "Shortcuts" done. Oh on a side note... In the discription of this FORUM's TOPIC, what does "trought" mean??? See ya guys in a week Link to comment
Guest Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Quicke: I just tried to play mta vc with a friend, I could connect and play but I couldn't see my friend. He can see me, but can't kill me or wathever. I can kill him although I can't see him. Also I trashed a bike until it was burning and then tried to get back on it. When the bike exploded I was killed also but the gamed said that my friend killed me but he didn't even shoot at me or the bike. If the "invisible" person reconnect to the server several times then if will work... You notice when it work if its more people in the game... If it's not working, you will be the Cop Skin, Else you will be another skin... Link to comment
Si|ent Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 I spent about 15min today reinstalling MTA:VC. Kept getting an error that it couldnt open files to update them. First try the 'uninstall' option in the mta setup, if this doesnt work (see below why not), then: Manually delete the current shortcuts and set any files in the /MTA/ directory to ARCHIVE (right click followed by properties, tickbox at the bottom) As it sounds as if they are there as READ ONLY. Then install once more. You MUST allow the installer to create the shortcuts and icons or it will NOT install in the correct place, and will therefore not work. You will also be unable to un-install Link to comment
