erorr404 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 i have never installed any mods for vice city. i enter PARTYSERVER Vice City, and when the client opens, it says "Banned: Superbike" i wonder, wtf?? so i try another server, some canadian one (forgot what its called). this time the client loads and i dont get banned/kicked, but when i press start game, and on the loading screen it freezes. then i get banned automatically from that one too and it says "Banned: Suspected Trainer Usage" i think to myself, ive been banned automatically from 2 servers, so it must be a problem with the VC install, not the servers. so i check everything out in my VC directory, and all seems perfectly fine. today i reinstall Vice City, enter PARTYSERVER, and get the same message again (banned: Superbike). can someone tell me what the problem could be please? and can someone tell me how to contact the PARTYSERVER VC admin to unban me once this issue is resolved? thanks Link to comment
[KFC]KungFu Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 KFC admins PartyServer Pm me your IP and for anyone else with a similar problem the forum in my sig is the place to go... weird crap happens some times... Link to comment
erorr404 Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 ok, thanks KungFu, i will pm you my IP once i figure out what the problem is and fixed it. i think the server banned me automatically, so it must be something on my machine that is causing it to go off. so if you unban me before this issue is resolved, the same thing will probably happen - the server will auto-ban me again when i try to join. right now i am looking for help into what might cause this to happen, even after ive reinstalled VC.

erorr404 Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 i just entered a GTA3 MTA server, and got auto-banned just as i did with the Vice City ones, heres a pic of the message i get: once again, i do not have any mods/hacks/trainers. before this, i thought that it was because something was not right with my VC directory, but now i know that everything was fine with my VC install, because i know for sure that i never touched anything inside the GTA3 directory, and i still get this very same problem. to avoid confusion, here is the problem i get: what happens is that the server AUTOMATICALLY bans me when i try to join (not a server admin - but some script on the server or the MTA client itself), probably because it detects what it thinks is a hack on my PC. we know that i dont have any mods and that my GTA3 and VC directories are fine, so this problem lies elsewhere. can someone help me figure this out please? i want to play MTAVC again, but i get banned from all of the major VC servers the moment i connect to them. thankfully PARTYSERVER GTA3 works for me, as thats where i play most of the time. btw, here is a thread with someone who seems to be having the exact same problem as me: http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... =superbike Link to comment

erorr404 Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 nice find. looks like the reason for this is that my name is 8 small char's, and the script is supposed to auto-ban all non-cap, 8 char names ... all i have to do now is get myself unbanned from those servers, and get a new name (i use this name for everything though ).

Slothman Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 then how about error4O4 (capitol "o" for a zero) Link to comment
erorr404 Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 then how about error4O4 (capitol "o" for a zero) i tried it, it just doesnt look right either. i think i will use __erorr404__ btw, strangely i got auto-banned from GTA3 PARTYSERVER, the nick erorr404 always worked on it before, but i had the client open and connected to that server today, and it just banned me, even though i was already on for a while and played it already - strange . no worries though, i have a dynamic IP so its no problem. anyways.. ya i hope Aeron allows 8 lower-case char nicks in the next release.
