SAAW: San Andreas At War - World War II | v1.2 | 24/7 |


Recommended Posts

Basically what Rudransh says, I'm not sitting 24/7 in front of my laptop so you better keep calm before you get punished for spamming the forum by some moderator. 

And no, the update was not today. I said I TRY (!) today. U guys will have to wait another day or two, dont spam ETA questions all day, you will see when it's online.

Okay guys, get ready for the largest update in history of this server.
It does not only contain a lot of brand new features and fixes, no, i implemented all planned performance improvements at once.
You guys should experience a tremendously increased performance, this should especially come in handy for people running MTA with a toaster 
and complaining about performance in the past. However many vehicles and/or Peds/Players on one spot WILL STILL hurt performance.
These performance issues are caused by GTA/MTA itself, they are reported and can currently not be fixed.
Now take it, hold it, love it.

NOTE: shader_pednormal is still disabled and the godray sunshader didnt make it in this update in time, i am working on this and pednormal will be removed.
NOTE: Turret mounted machine guns are not enabled yet, i could not finish that script in time, i will finish this asap.
NOTE: This Update is NOT FULLY TESTED. I have only my Laptop. That means THERE WILL BE BUGS. Report them.

-Satchels do now trigger when pressing mouse 2 while satchels are selected, the satchel detonator no longer exists

Hotfix:
-Doubled medic heal speed once again (Now +1 HP in 5 seconds while being close to a medic)
-Test fix for the famous "0 ammo" bug, now there is a cooldown of 0,1s for switching the weapon
-Test fix for camera shake not working sometimes
-Fixed medic not healing himself
-Fixed bug that prevented players from registering
-Fixed Shop UI getting messed up by low screen resolutions
-Fixed bug that prevented the radar and the "online staff" text from showing if you get spawned by the autospawn timer
-Fixed "bug" that allowed players to attach planes to landing boats (U crazy trolls lol)
-Fixed a flying bush on El Alamein
-Fixed Payday not working at all
-Fixed matches always ending as TIE
-Fixed german Medic having access to Perception by default
-Increased Tickets on Islands and El Alamein to 500

My Server now supports 800x600 resolution somewhat successfully, however its really not recommended to play on such low resolutions. And please dont come here and cry because something looks ugly/ is unusable because you are playing on 640x480 or something similar.
