I remember they did something like this with XP, that warning everytime you installed a driver that wasn't "digitally certified for xp". just a load of corporate bull. anyyway.. I did some searching and found this articlle thing called "Why vista won't suck".. kinda interesting, I didn't know a lot of that stuff.. check it out: http://www.extremetech.com/slideshow/0, ... 305,00.asp Nothing much really.. just some pictures of some basic features...I'm still kinda sceptical.. EDIT:: here's more: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1 ... 914,00.asp and here's why it will suck: http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT8288296398.html

I don't get all the fuss about Vista. First of all, how is Vista so much better than XP?.. Plus it uses a lot more system rescourses. I don't think I'll ever install Vista. Unless all the new programs and such wont work with XP.

hi, I made this topic in the suggestions forum, but maybe this forum would be more appropriate for it..

LMFAO.. from http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time: hahaha, those valve times shure is handy to have around..

is it possible to make a script that alerts cops when a law has been broken?.. for example..say Player A starts shooting in east los santos.. the players playing as cops would get a message "Shots have been fired in east los santos" alternativly, the persons nick could be added in the alert "Shots have been fired in east los santos by Player A"... then the players playing as cops will know who to hunt down.. this is not a suggestion to the MTA team, they are busy enough, but it's to the scripters who are going to use the SDK.. EDIT:: and then if u wanna make it more advanced, u can make a screen which shows a list of all the alerts.. from that list, cops can pick what alert they wanna persue, when they make their choice, that alert on the list will change colour and other cops won't be able to pick it.. now when the cops pick an alert, the player who caused that exact alert will get a wanted star on his screen.. Players who cause alerts that no cops chose to pursue will not get a wanted star.. EDIT #2: If a wanted player breaks even more laws, then the alrets he caused will be opened for other cops to join the chase.. and if other cops join, he will get 2 stars.. then if he causes more trouble, another slot opens up for cops, and if a third cop joins, he'll get a 3 star wanted level..etc.. Also, there can be a Wanted list, showing wanted players and their wanted levels.. cops can alternativly also issue out bounties on a player's head, so then bounty hunters can chase him too.. but for this, the player must be a notorous criminall.. hehe, damn, I'd love to be the only player on a map with a price on my head.. haha..

I think these should be fixed before releasing it, the most noticible bugs yes, I second that.. cuz if u release it with those big bugs, u will get critisised like hell, people would be all like "What have u been working on for so long if such bugs exists in the release version?".. know what I mean?.. so yeah, besides, nobody wanna play anything with annoying big bugs..I'd rather wait.. btw, how many devs do the team consist of right now??

IMO, if the mta team ever decides to implemend this, I think that if possible, they should go a step further by making a realistic voice feat.. like the only ppl that can hear u are people standing close to u in-game.. and the further u go away, the lower they will hear u.. then ppl can have discussions and stuff, while others are spying and ease dropping.. hehe.. oh weell, don't know how possible/impossible this is though.. just a thought..

hehe... but u know, if I was the guy beeing threatend with a satchel charge on my back, I would just follow the guy that is trying to blow me up, and try to get as close as possible, that way if I die, he dies.. ..

or, they could give u the money and u could blow them up anyway.. muahaha

yeah, that'd be awsome.. imagine having to plan how to break in to the police station and save your team mate(s)..

I agree with Z3rbian.. R* would never pass up the chance to release it on pc.. too much money involved.. but ofcourse if Microsoft or Sony pays them enough to keep the game console exclusive, then that's another story.. but anyway, think about it.. maybe 100 is too much, or maybe it's just enough, I dunno.. the thing I really want to avoid is beeing shot the instance u spawn..for example, in BF2, I get shot after 2 seconds.. which really sux the fun out of the game.. but I think the players-map ratio in MTA:VC was nice..

why is the frame rate significant?.. can someone explain.. hehe..

I think the cargo idea is a bad idea.. hehe, because u wont actually see the trip.. u'll just be standing around inside an interior.. it's better to sit as a passenger and see the actuall trip.. and besides, what if the plane get's shot down?..if u were in the interior, you wouldn't even know a thing. but what's bitchpacking?.. never heard of that before.. hehe, somone care to explain?

I wish u could just go to any wall in SA and spray whatever u want on it, in-game.. but R* are so lame, they made a spray can that only makes sound and green smoke.. would it really be that hard for them to implemend a tagging feature?..

Somebodey should make a sticky that explains that Mta DM is in progress, and the current version out is only race... cuz I've seen a lot of these questions around..

hmm...why?.. hehe..aren't the patches official patches issued bu R*?.. so, if u support them, then what's the problem?.. I never understood this issue..

People seriously need to change their "MTA-is-right-around-the-corner" mentality.. people look at how much time the MTA team has used and think "well, it should be finished soon".. hehe, having that kind of mentality will just make u miserable.. just understand that stuff takes time, accept that, and look forward to progress updates instead of just looking forward to the release date.. it's still in progress.. no one ever said it's right around the corner.. so only blame urself for thinking that.. it's like expecting yourself to be able to gain a 100kg of muscles in one week.. it just doesn't go that way.. oh and by the way, to the moderators, the warning I recieved for just joking around with other members is seriously gay..but it's whatever.. and if someone took offence by the one thing I said ("u should be bitch slapped") then I'm sorry, but u shouldn't be offended so easily by something someone says on an internet messageboard..

@ lil Tody: I only compared Wow to SA because that other guy who was talkin about 1000 players said: see?.. and @ max_668: u can set up the server to kick players with high pings.. that way there will be a lot less lag.. and all the players with high pings can play on a server made only for high ping users.. lol.. @error: yeah.. that's what I've been saying too.. but people aren't getting it.. hehe..

Nope.. it won't blow at all... World of Warcaft... need I say more?.. so without further ado, *bitchSLAAAAAAAAAAP*

no.. you should be bitch slapped for not clarifying... anyyywayyy...this DM is made in a way that u won't recieve any info about players that aren't in your area.. so if there are 50 ppl in san fierro, and I'm in Los santos, it wouldn't have any impact on my gameplay, cuz those people won't be loaded in my game until I get near the area they're at.. based on that, I actually think that it's possible to have quite an ammount of players on one map.. just an attempt to reach a logical answer..lol.. peace

are you on Crack?..... that would be horrible.. if u want a downsized map area, play mtavc... the whole idea is to be able to roam throughout the entire state.. whereever u want to.. that's what makes it so wild.. u deserve to be B*tch-slapped just for saying what you said.. lol *SLAAAAAAAAAAPP*

yeah... or the serves name could be "UneedRealSananMod".. "UneedModX"... or whatever.. lol.. but yeah, if it works then it's awsome... hehe

reason I asked is, say a mod simillar to Real-GTA3 comes out for SA.. then u can have a server that's Only Real-GTAsanan..like the server is made only for people with that exact mod.. that way everybody would have the same mod, and there would be no disadvantages..so it wouldn't count as cheating or whatever..

hey, this has maybe been asked a thousand times before.. but I searched and didn't find anything.. so here it goes.. I understand that if I have a car mod in SA.. like say I have a Nissan skyline replacing the Banshee... in MTA, I will see the skyline, but other players will see the Banshee.. correct?.. Question A: what will happen to the modded handling of the car?.. because the mod is probobly faster than the banshee... will it be set to the default handling of the banshee in MTA, or will it use it's own handling script, so the car would actually be faster than all other banshees on the Server.. Question B: what if two people on the server has the EXACT SAME mod installed.. will it work like it does in signle player?.. will both people see a skyline instead of a banshee?..if not.. what if the server also has the exact same mod...?
