RandysWay Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 (edited) As the title says, I cannot see anybody ingame no matter what server I goto (deathmatch / stunt). This PC has been formatted yesterday and has a fresh copy of Vice + MTA .4 + ASE. I can run around and do everything ingame, but nobody appears and nobody is on the blips. Any ideas?

RandysWay Posted July 23, 2004 Author Share Posted July 23, 2004 Forgive me, how nubbish of me to forget to list these.. It's Windows XP Pro, SP1. DX 9.0b w/ the Omega Catalyst 4.7 Link to comment
Kent747 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 make sure you aren't running on any compatibility modes. Kent Link to comment
RandysWay Posted July 23, 2004 Author Share Posted July 23, 2004 I'm not. Everything is stock, untouched. I mean, everything. PC was formatted yesterday. No files in VC or MTA has been touched. I havent even played VC singleplayer yet on this format. Link to comment
Kent747 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 start up a round of VC single player... your first run usually inits some graphical stuff ... then try MTA Link to comment
RandysWay Posted July 24, 2004 Author Share Posted July 24, 2004 Damn! I played for five minutes SP and still nobody shows up in MTA.. Link to comment
RandysWay Posted July 24, 2004 Author Share Posted July 24, 2004 I reinstalled VC... I reinstalled MTA ten times.. I've reset the game path, I've reset the config.cfg. When I reset the config.cfg it says: GTA3:MTA config.cfg could not be reset because your GTA3 Game Path is NOT set. Please set it now and try again. Odd since I'm playing Vice not GTA3. The servers I'm playing on is Vice. I dont know what to do.. or what it is. I've tried stunt servers, deathmatch servers. Setting it to 1.1 instead of 1.0 crashes the game... I have VC 1.0.

SM xenex Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 DO you have a firewall by any chance? you never know try turning it off . Link to comment
RandysWay Posted July 24, 2004 Author Share Posted July 24, 2004 Negative. I already turned off all XP built in firewalls. I killed myself ingame and the guy said it didnt announce I died.. so, therefor... MTA must not be communicating with Vice. Link to comment
RandysWay Posted July 24, 2004 Author Share Posted July 24, 2004 FIXED! Oh my god, you wont believe what I did to fix it. You know what I did? ....I installed the sound card drivers. Yes.. you heard right. I havent installed them yet since I just formatted and havent planned on using the speakers for a day or so. Then I figured; well, you know what - what if this is the problem? I shrugged it off since I didnt think installing a sound card driver would make MTAVC talk to Vice. So, after all these hours.. I figured t'hell with it, its worth a try. So it works. Now, guys, if this happens to you.. install those freegin drivers! Perhaps you guys should put this in the Readme. Link to comment
SM xenex Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Glad you fixed it, altought i doubt its the sound drivers themself, maybe just somethig that gets installed with it ,anyways i guess the bes tthing to say is have up to date drivers.( for all your hardware) Link to comment
Bladexen Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 That also happened in MTA 0.3 Link to comment
