argo76 Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Hey! As you might be aware of, there is a new version on GTA San Andreas in the Windows 8.1 store available for 5.99€ I was wondering if the MTA would work on that version of GTA. It has better graphics and a bit different GUI because it is a also for tablets. I want to play it on PC ofcourse. Thank you for your help!
0 Waileer Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 I think after you install that GTA San Andreas and install MTA it will ask to download patch/update? and then it should work normally!
0 Woovie Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I'm pretty sure that's for ARM Windows 8.1. In that case, it will not work. "The humble beet is the answer to all riddles." - Rolf
0 MTA Team jhxp Posted March 12, 2014 MTA Team Posted March 12, 2014 Not necessarily - look at the screenshot below (sorry for the hacky Paint.net job but I'm not sure how to make a proper screenshot of the page from Windows Store): You can also find that page at this address - paste it to your web browser's address bar (Windows 8/8.1 only): ms-windows-store:PDP?PFN=RockstarGames.GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas_3t068xe29zjvp I have no idea what version is it though. The file size listed for the game seems to be kind of small (1.84GB vs regular ~5GB). One of the [VCP] leaders // honorary member of the =PCP= gang.

0 denny199 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Isn't that the mobile version? https://itunes.apple.com/nl/app/grand-t ... 92274?mt=8 Sometimes I dream about cheese
0 argo76 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 That is the mobile version for IOS's, i was talking about the windows versions though.
0 denny199 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Yeah, I know that it is for ios, but it's the same size so I tought, for windows phones, or surface tables which doesn't have a keyboard, also http://store.steampowered.com/sale/rock ... eekend2014 Sometimes I dream about cheese
0 argo76 Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Would anyone try it out? I dont have enough money for testing myself right now.
0 denny199 Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us ... 22fb67bec8 As qouted by jhxp: x86, x64, ARM The game feutures: FeaturesRemastered, high-resolution graphics built specifically for mobile including lighting enhancements, an enriched color palette and improved character models. Dual analog stick controls for full camera and movement control. Three different control schemes and customizable controls with contextual options to display buttons only when you need them. Tailor your visual experience with adjustable graphic settings. Also an another quote: Rockstar Games brings its biggest release to mobile yet with a vast open-world covering the state of San Andreas and its three major cities – Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas – with enhanced visual fidelity and over 70 hours of gameplay.When installing on a Windows RT PC we recommend a Microsoft Surface 2 or equivalent. So this is the "tablet" version as I said before, and MTA doesn't work on this version. Edit: surfrace/ windows RT pc is a tablet-computer http://www1.pcmag.com/media/images/3033 ... ows-rt.jpg Regards, Danny Sometimes I dream about cheese
0 Woovie Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 That doesn't prove much, as the grammar used implies that other versions exist, for non-RT devices. "The humble beet is the answer to all riddles." - Rolf

The game engine is different, I bought it on my moms surface via the windows store and it's exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIcP5NDb8WQ So I don't think that it does support MTA, you should buy it via steam.

No, MTA most definitely doesn't support it. But, if you have a plain Windows 8.1 PC, x86, you might be able to download the game as the store says it supports it. Since you own it, you should try and download it. "The humble beet is the answer to all riddles." - Rolf

Game engine wouldn't be the biggest worry, not to mention GTA:SA only uses RenderWare Graphics, not the whole engine. Though, GTA:SA mobile still uses RenderWare.

0 Woovie Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 We don't know. We need someone to buy it on a Windows 8.1 desktop. I have a feeling the store is lying about x86 support. "The humble beet is the answer to all riddles." - Rolf
