JacoB Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I installed MTA 0.5. Did not restart. Opened up MTACLIENT. Could not connect, suspected trainer usage. Um ok.. closed all programs. Same message. Restarted computer. Tried to open mta client, got this message: Uninstalled. Restarted. Reinstalled. Restarted. Double-clicked it in ASE and it worked. I don't want to have to open this from ASE. WTF went wrong?

JacoB Posted February 1, 2005 Author Posted February 1, 2005 No.. I was trying to manually open MTAClient.exe via C:\Program Files\Multi Theft Auto\ I was getting that error when I tried to open it from there. But then I tried opening a server on ASE and it loaded the client with no error.
Dgtadude Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Hum.. ye i guess openning from the source file and shortcut dosent make a difference.. Still doing some research with my own to see if i can cause the problem and troubleshoot it Steam ID: Linkage CSS/HL2DM XBL TAG: Linkage155 (please identify yourself) -=- Member of the GTA Hoodz Team -=- Member of TmM -=- Member of the U.C.F Team -=- (last updated like 2 years ago, links don''t work anymore, but I''ll keep it original)
Bloodymess13 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I had some problems with something similar myself, turned out i had the version set wrong in the MTA client under the "options tab". Try changing the version, see if that helps FREE Game Video Hosting, Your Own Downloads Page, Your Own Descriptions, Easy Web Based Uploading!

MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted February 1, 2005 MTA Team Posted February 1, 2005 I had the same problem myself on the laptop today. Installed MTA, didn't work. rebooted and still refused. So i turned my laptop off and put it away. Now i just booted it again cause i wanted to troubleshoot the problem and it is gone ...
Bloodymess13 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 crazy, i tryed restarting when i had the problem, completely reinstalled Vice (which the install to begin with was only a few hours old, with nothing added) and it still didn't work. I was about to give up when i messed with the version, and then it worked. Go figure. FREE Game Video Hosting, Your Own Downloads Page, Your Own Descriptions, Easy Web Based Uploading!

Slothman Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 i had the same erorr when i wasnt connected to the internet. possible cause for this is a firewall. Check out my recent work: ZDay - a zombie script Slothbot - an AI deathmatch bot my community profile (all my resources)
eAi Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Its possible this is caused by being unable to download the welcome message - if thats the case. If someone wants to try this out for us, it'd be helpful. Update: I've added this to the known issues thread with two possible fixes. I'd be interested to know if either work. Update 2: We've replicated and fixed this bug. Whenever we release an update, this will be fixed. In the meantime, follow the instructions on the "known issues" thread to disable updates or allow mtaclient.exe access to the internet through your firewall.
MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted February 1, 2005 MTA Team Posted February 1, 2005 We have identified the bug. As suspected this bug haapends when the client can not find the motd on our website. To prevent this from happening open up mta.ini that is located in the same folder in a text editor and set DontGetLatest to 1 DontGetLatest=1
StAnToN Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 this is correct becuase it happened with me when i was disconnected to the internet.
