Lara C. Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 a positive post by me, for a change Yeah..it looks good. If it is only half as good as you all say..well..then it will be GOOD - Just a question..how does that work with the moddability ? How do you prevent someone running cheat/mods/weapon mods etc. which give one player an advantage (the one who got the mod) - and the others dont (because they dont have this mod) ? - the full moddabilty (hmm..is that even a real word ? ...would that also mean something like a 'character creation' mod would be possible....where someone COULD write an add-on which allows the creation of custom characters which then are also FULLY synced/available/visible for everyone on a server ? (means: Modding...yay...but does this mean everything modded is also synced ???) - Did you (or anyone else) already plan/design/think about doing... some add-ons/mods...independently from the core eg. like a 'character/car/etc/etc'-mod which then could be included in the 'Blue' by default ? cya Edit: just read the other thread...which explained some of my questions already Link to comment
Dgtadude Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I have no clue about this . but there could be a option on the server to allow or disallow mods ? Link to comment
eAi Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Lets just reitterate. Just like with half-life, if a server is running Counter-strike, everyone who connects has to be running counter-strike, you can't connect with TFC. The same is true with blue, if you launch a server with modX on, every user who connects must have modX installed, or they won't be able to connect. Its that simple. eAi Link to comment
Dgtadude Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 ah .. so .. U want a racing server .. U make a mod that changes the cars handling speed .. and share it with everyone .. So everyone MUSt have the same mod ? If yes . that is Geneius Link to comment
Lips106 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 (edited) I have no clue about this . but there could be a option on the server to allow or disallow mods ? I think it would be something like, you have an add-ons folder in your MTA directory, and when you connect to a server, it allows the relevant files that are allowed, to be used. Correct me if I'm wrong thought Edited September 4, 2004 by Guest Link to comment

MAD_BOY Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 this can't be true, lara and positive, it's like putting ice cream on pizza, both are great, but really shouldn't be together Link to comment
darkdreamingdan Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 this can't be true, lara and positive, it's like putting ice cream on pizza, both are great, but really shouldn't be together wat are u implying about lara.... [ontopic]looks awsum[/ontopic] Link to comment
vass69 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 this can't be true, lara and positive, it's like putting ice cream on pizza, both are great, but really shouldn't be together u kinda read my mind, and the idea with mods allowed/disallowed as server option is good, i wonder if some1 really makes a mod server on a good connection Link to comment

Trust Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 but the question about cheating remains: what about the anti-cheat methods? u already thought of making modding possible, but what if someone makes a trainer just like it is being done now? Link to comment

The team said that it's now easier for them to locate bugs and exploits, so any such issues could be fixed quickly. Link to comment
eAi Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 We are not discussing anti-cheat at this time, but we hope that it will be considerably more effective than the existing anti-cheat (which is as good as non-existant ). eAi Link to comment

Iggy Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 So there will be no way to download the mod upon connecting to the server if you don't have it? Link to comment
Bladexen Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 OMG u should make a thing like VCM in the menue and u add your mods in a folder and in the menue of MTA Blue u but mods and it shows all the mods in that folder and u can easly install and unistall the mods. and also i think i am not sure u got some suggestions from me and u added them but not sure notg sure at all. probaply not but u know maybe maybe.
