MTA on Windows Server 2012

[SjoerdPSV]

Hello,

I wanted to install MTA on my VPS. I want to use it for my own server, as a 'second' screen. Sometimes I need to test something with 2 persons, but I can't since I only have 1 PC. I've installed GTA and MTA on it, but when I try to start MTA, I get the following error:

I tried to install it manually, but I didn't succed in it, does anyone have a solution for this?

You've tried this, right? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/179113 If it doesn't work, you can try reinstalling GTA and hope that directX installation window will pop up while installing GTA SA.

It's nearly impossible to run the game itself on an hosted server/VPS, with some knownledge you could've known that server machines do not even most of the times have a graphics card but use ''chained'' GPU's, and what you see on remote desktop or on the server is a direct image of the raw screen output (also with those techniques an graphics card isn't needed, because it will only use the viewer's screen to display) and the first sign of graphicscard-less operation is that DirectX error window.

Trying other solutions isn't worth it.. you cannot run San Andreas or games on an VPS server.

You can use Virtualbox to run two or more MTASA copies on your PC at the same time. You will need the installation disc/ISO for Windows for that, though.
