eAi Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 (edited) As has been rumored, what has up till now been known as Multi Theft Auto 0.4.5 is now known as 0.5. This is due to the large number of updates and new features in this version. We've just released a site dedicated to MTA 0.5 which can be viewed by clicking here! Here's a quick line up of some features included within MTA 0.5: - Huge increase in stability - Balanced stubby weapon - Two new GTA3 islands available including new gamemodes - Lots of changes to the existing maps - New server browser integrated into the MTA 0.5 client - Integrated MTA protocol handler (for mta:// links on websites) - Brand new client graphical interface - Rich text support for Message Of The Day, including colors and fonts - MTA Error Reporting Tool included within the installer (helps us fixing any bugs) - New MTA 0.5 Dedicated server binaries available for FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Linux - New installer and configuration tool for Linux dedicated servers And much more! We're just tidying up some final parts of the release and hopefully we'll be releasing it soon. Watch this space! Edited November 30, 2010 by Guest
Quig Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 w00t GJ guys the stubby is acually balanced now YAY gamplay is gonna be alot more spread out around the map now just because of that
OpiuM. Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 ill watch that space..but..without refreshing...ehh be more specific
Capone Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 (edited) i see 0.5 is similar to blue hmm lookin Gud nice work (Y) cnt w8t till it comes out :D edit: (New server browser integrated into the MTA 0.5 client = this feature is in Blue?) Edited January 29, 2005 by Guest
JacoB Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 This looks like an "MTA:Green".. lol anyway, this looks very impressive, wasn't expecting anything like this from 0.4.5.. er, 0.5
Scorp Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 A feature which is very helpful for the newbies: # Added an in-client server that allows you to quickly configure and host a server straight from the MTA Client. Now it will be very easy for them to set up servers, just as it is with most other games. # In client global MOTD so that you can hear about news from MTA immediately. That's awesome! Hope they'll update it regulary. Also great to see the robber balanced, this should prevent the larger robber wars in the future. It's no wonder this version jumped up to the 0.5 series, with all these new great features!
rolla Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 kick ass i might get vice re-installed for a run with new mta
eAi Posted January 29, 2005 Author Posted January 29, 2005 One of the best features in the long run is the stability. We've been doing loads of testing, and in about 6 hours of tests we had 8 crashes (with 5 people playing). We've fixed 7 of those crashes, and one was probably causes by changing game while someone else was in-game... so we'll see. Clearly, when we actually release it could all go haywire eAi
ChRóM3 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Yeh this looks pretty damn cool Love the way u kept us hanging there for a while, and then BAM! all this new stuff. Well done, i can't wait!!!
OpiuM. Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 why does everyone talk like... thats just annoying and would make my obsessive compulsive ass quit MTA roflmao
eAi Posted January 29, 2005 Author Posted January 29, 2005 They don't. That was a bug in the version when those pictures were taken. eAi
Bob_TDH Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Great news guys! Thanks once again for your hard work
njr1489 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Wow that is a huge improvement. People were thinking mta was dead for a while but they were wrong. All this was being stored so it could be a big suprise for us. The team stored so much information I don't know what to say. Once MTA 1.0 is released and it is perfect, i'll bet the team will get a phone call from rockstar.
[FKU]X Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 WOW, awsome job, I expected much less then that, i thought this is just a mini update, but this is a new version, SUPERD, when is it coming out now,lol
Loendal Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Diabling jumping with the stubby? Have you synched up Crouching then? Doesn't this encourage glitching? Glitchers don't jump, they crouch and break the animations that way. Not jumping with Grenades is ok I suppose, one way to stop that particular glitch, though it also leaves behind the crouch glitch issue. Everything else looks great though, nice improvements and additions. I'll just have to wait and see if this no-jump thing works out.
njr1489 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Now we will start to see who is good and who can't win without glitches. Everything is fair and everyone will be happy. I also want to know, are there any more suprises waiting until its released?
MrJax Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 I doubt they've managed to remove all glitches, but it sounds good
Gamefreek Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Glitchers don't jump, they crouch and break the animations that way. I was talking with Kent767 and the Devs think that Jumping to break the animation (which every stubby user practically does) is glitching. Also he said that trx worked on the crouching, but he didnt go into more detail.
Hawk_Boy Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 (edited) I believe that you guys made a video of MTA 0.5? because in one of the pictures i see a number on top of the screen which indicates a fraps sign P.S: there's one only Edited January 29, 2005 by Guest
njr1489 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 They could have used fraps to capture screenshots. What I noticed is that they didn't say anything about the m60. Was that weapon affected in any way?

Don't worry, professional ingame experience was asked for about exploit issues for a long time, I think you (and I since I actually did not test MTAVC this time... so dont contact me noobs ... too busy these days lol) are in for a great surprise
