Disaster Posted February 21, 2004 Posted February 21, 2004 If you have Error 'mta_dll.dll' cound not be located, and are very sure you set the right directory, you may want to do this: Open up C:\windows\mta.ini Now add this line at the end of the file: [game-exe] location=Path\to\gta-vc.exe Remember to change the "Path\to\gta-vc.exe" to the acual location. Most people do not see this because the older MTA versions added this line for you. But for first time users, people who reformatted their pcs, or who delete their mta.ini may experience this problem.

Crumpet Posted April 9, 2004 Posted April 9, 2004 I have a completely different alternative to the DLL Error. I just run single player mode ( dont ask why ) / quit / reset game path / close mta / open mta / click start game / choose vc.exe and thats it! Its allot , but to me its worth playing mta cyaz round
Guest Posted April 9, 2004 Posted April 9, 2004 but evrytime you restart mta than you gotte do that again?? wel maybe it came to your mind that going singeplayer first doenst matter. just start mta click reset game path than click start game click on the exe and you can play,no need for singeplayer. and btw that soultion above doesnt work.it always sais .dll not found and than auto resets the gamepath in the ini file to nothing

Disaster Posted April 14, 2004 Author Posted April 14, 2004 Yea but doing that over and over again is stupid, this method is good because you do not have to do it again "Be Shapeless like water If You put water in the cup it becomes the cup; you put water in the bottle it becomes the bottle; you put it in the teapot it becomes the teapot.

Sillyhed2000 Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 First, I know this is a kinda old topic but it needs a bump. 'Cause in MTA 0.3 I could get it to work fine, using the fixes posted here. However, with the new MTA 0.4, it can never find the mta_dll.dll. I've tried all the fixes posted, resetting the game path, changing the mta.ini file - everything. GTA3 MTA works fine though EDIT: Nevermind, fresh install of both VC and MTA and everything worked fine. Almost everything. Now it crashes when it's one cm from the end of the load bar, and the entire system dies! I had to reboot. 42.
