Are you sure you installed to the correct directory? I.E your vice city/gta3 one.

Check mtad.scm is in vc/data, mtavc_dll.dll in root of vc, american.gxt in vice city/mta.

also your saying "i load up GTA and after clickling MULTIPLAYER GAME " leads me to believe you may not be running the client, conecting to a server and hitting start game in the client? If this is so then there is your problem.

This problem seems to have come up fairly often in 0.5. There are plenty of other threads on this, but I'm not certain that they came up with a solution.

[Guest]

Try updating Vice City to 1.1 (remember to tell the client you did so afterwards)

do you have sound in-game?

[Guest]

Yes ive tried updating it to 1.1 and it wont let me 4 sum reason maybe it already is and its a copied version so no it will not have sound will that effect anything?
