In the MTA main menu is Host Server button, press it and it gives you a box where you can type in Server's name and stuff.

In the Right corner is some choose resources - button or something like that i think

press that, and it gives you list of resources you have.

then in the right, find the resources (script and map)

click the resource and click left arrow in the middle of the GUI box it looks like <<

do that same with all your resources you want there

then press host game and it sets up a server where you can test your map and scripts.

Hope that helps --- Burger

This also could be because you named the script wrong. Did you call your resource something like "Wadda Luada"? With space? If yes, thats the problem, no spaces allowed

Rename for something like WaddaLuada
