Co-op possible..? Never thought about it..

[mistamontiel]

A friend hasn't played this in a long time. I've barely beaten or gotten really far in GTA series.

III I won on PC and it was pretty sudden couldn't believe that was ending already. I'd get up to the Dodo plane back on PS2 and lose motivation..planes in GTAIII were god awful..

Vice City..I do some Haitian work and it just kix my ass. Couldn't finish dang mission..

San Andreas I was..in a wild gunfight, parking lot/warehouse in the Vegas themed last area. SA is so neat..always..a co-op feature would be cooly. And sorry, I just thought about it for the first time.

I've favorited two servers, one is a pick a model/bunch of teams and other is just modding spawning whatever and getting around.

Open source..hm, I guess a lot of servers differ. I can unblock a port if I must host for my friend.

So...About what is this post?

Are you asking for coop mode scripting possibility? Yes it's possible, but it's not easy. A lot of work.

If you are asking about something else - give us more details about your problem

Hehe. Thanks much for the move.

Please let me know whenever some of the team look into the scripting process of putting in a co-op mode for a MTA release. If it's good, if it'll never be done. I'm pretty sure I'll catch it if it happens, good luck and amazing work done.

Believe it, I was using MTA with GTA3 perfectly when people would play it. There's no support for that or Vice City if they even still get MTA'd.

I first ran across MTA, and it was Vice City L0L. Very limited crap little .dll game launcher quick connecter. There were no moving animations, people would edit their .cfg and take their vehicles inserver hauling ass lol. So much improvement, MTA just feels, plays so solid since. I can't thank you guys enough !!

EDIT: From the MTA ingame menus, console..all the servermods, it's so clean. It's bliss, thanks much !!

If you want to play co-op using a single keyboard is posible, what you have to do is just to create a ped, bind his actions with NUMPAD buttons and split the screen(i dont think its posible, you can use a simple way but you know.. "don't try this at home")... or if MTA has support for multiple joysticks you can script the same for them.

Well, I'm pretty sure none of MTA Staff (not talking about players) will make a script for co-op mode (at least not that big) - they have better things to do (improvements, new features, bug fixes..), but somebody else can do it - but need a lot of work and time. Probably it will never be done to have co-op on single player missions, but some other missions with bots etc can be written as co-op mode.

But.. who will make it?

[mistamontiel]

varez, I hear you.

You mean to keep just two players in sync as one can freely skip stuff..? Time consuming..I can see. Hah, custom missions..I have yet to see that/get into that.

Me and my bud should be using same controls, as well.

I can host p2p, for sure. Most def. If someone can work on a p2p feature, co-op should be checked into from there, utilizing p2p. I wonder how people come up with the port. I can unblock port(s), I've hosted everything.
