Guest Posted August 4, 2003 Posted August 4, 2003 What happens if I use MTA with a modified handling.cfg file? presumably the server gives out its own copy for the duration of the connection? or is it all client side? Am I likely to have problems playing online with these modifications? James
ekin113 Posted August 4, 2003 Posted August 4, 2003 It just won't work.... http://gta3.gamigo.de/downloads/upload/Bender2.jpg
Guest Posted August 4, 2003 Posted August 4, 2003 lol, tried it ( works ) and you it seems anything driven by you takes on your own handling.cfg file - but when you crash into someone it uses their handling.cfg to work out what damage i would cause, so in short you can make your own cars fast as you want - but dont expect to be able to use a huge mass to kill other people James
Guest Posted August 4, 2003 Posted August 4, 2003 how is this cheating when there are no rules or gameplay yet implemented? people are just mucking about online - if the developers minded editing the cfg they would have added protection.... James
MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted August 4, 2003 MTA Team Posted August 4, 2003 we can not have a fully featured mta yet, and changing files is cheating if it is single or multiplayers. Trainers and changing files = cheating
Guest Posted August 4, 2003 Posted August 4, 2003 lol the same could be said for you as your are making game mods, CHEAT ! but seriously, I brought this up so it could be fixed for next time round - it wouldnt take much to include a "stock" version of the .cfg and rewrite the users version everytime loaded.. James
Turbo X Posted January 26, 2004 Posted January 26, 2004 this isnt cool every1 is cheating on MTAVC now there are sites for cheating on MTA everywhere, its not cool mta should make a 3.1 and have most of todays cheats disabled IT SAYS IM A n00b
[KFC]KungFu Posted January 26, 2004 Posted January 26, 2004 wow and a noob comment to boot nice bump again but don't abuse this you'll get in trouble
dystopia Posted January 26, 2004 Posted January 26, 2004 Dear James: I've been waiting to use that, and woohoo 100th post.

dystopia Posted January 26, 2004 Posted January 26, 2004 and anyhow, i don't believe you are 100% correct, i've been hit by a firetruck going 300mph+, and it instantly caught my car on fire and spun me to the point I couldn't get out before it blew up.
[XYZ_ABC_123]Deckard Posted January 30, 2004 Posted January 30, 2004 The idea of making a stock handling.cfg file isnt that simple as all you'd have to do to prevent it overwriting would be to change its attributes to read only. Its very difficult to put into practice. The problem with the cheating is that the MTA crew might disable all current trainers, but whats to stop those who've make one trainer from making another. It seems that within a few days of an MTA release some little scrote has released a cracked version. There really isnt much you can do about it- its the same with warez. Learn to live with it- if someone is cheating then move to another server. They'll get bored and give up eventually- they're only entertained when people are watching.
Guest Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Ive experienced people with handling.cfg files modded on the VCES server now and again which i must add where promptly kicked by the admin after inspection. Somehow an ambulance caught up to me and one of there members RonSeal during a car chase i was driving a Pheonix and he was in the car that looks like a porsche(cant remember the name) and the ambulance isnt as fast as either of those cars and he flew over the bridge at us and rammed me at some incredible speed causing my car to smoke on impact. So i would say its definitley cheating altering any aspect of the game files to gain an advantage over opposition = cheating in my mind.
[XYZ_ABC_123]Deckard Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Yeah I've noticed that on VCES server too- theres a lot of modded cars and people with the good old fashioned infinite armour....
G-TheftMoney Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Man I hate it when people cheat on online games... Sure it may be fun for the other person to crash into people at an alarming speed but the other gets annoyed and leaves... Why can't we all play fair and play in harmony? I mean sooner or later it's going to get boring.
vass69 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Why can't we all play fair and play in harmony? because there are bad ppl out there...
[XYZ_ABC_123]Deckard Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 The paradox is that if everyone played fair then we wouldnt know what fair is. We need the unfair to define what is fair. Doesnt stop us wanting to crack open a big fat can of whoopass on all those lamers tho.
dystopia Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 deckard, i love the chaos theory, don't you, besides, what fun would instakilling a cheater with a heli, and watching them proclaim you cheat for killing a cheater be if it wren't for cheaters ;x
