[SKC]Whiskey

type /votemode The reason u see a black screen is because there is no gamemode loaded.

Thats what i thought was going to happen.

# function syncTime() # local realTime = getRealTime() # local hour = realTime.hour # local minute = realTime.minute # local weatherID = getWeather() # setTime( hour , minute ) # setWeather(weatherID) # end # # setTimer ( syncTime, 1000, 0 ) Im a complete noob at scripting, so i dont have a clue if that even works. However if it does i still doubt it will stop the flickering. It will prolly just flicker faster since the weather will still be changed by setting the time ( if your theory is correct and it does indeed do that).

The resources on your webserver seem to be located here: " http://www.teamfackin.net/moocow/resources/ " and not here " http://www.teamfackin.net/moocow/resources/mooserver/" like u specify in your config

<group name="Resources"> <acl name="race"/> <object name="resource.race"/> </group> <acl name="race"> <right name="general.ModifyOtherObjects" access="true"/> </acl> Add this code to the ACL.xml in this location : C:\Program Files\MTA San Andreas\server\mods\deathmatch This should fix the problem.

They will add support for gamepads in the next release. For now u can use xpadder --> http://www.xpadder.com Theres a guide on how to set it up right here viewtopic.php?f=87&t=21167&p=267519&hilit=gamepad#p267519

This should be stickied! Very nice guide

viewtopic.php?f=87&t=20946&p=266706#p266706 U need 2 installs of GTA and MTA + u'll need to use the switcher tool to switch between them

Do u still need help? ( Managed to set up my own server yesterday ) I've added u on msn. I can provide 200+ race maps to test a dedicated racing server.

I think you might be better off asking for help in the irc channel : irc://irc.multitheftauto.com/#mta Doesnt look like the developers are really checking these threads out tbh

U need at least 1 spawnpoint

R u sure this is in every server? Seems like there hasnt been a gamemode started. Try the SKC server, or 1 of the official servers to be sure.

That exact same meta.xml is already there.... I can't change to any map at all EDIT: Ifixed it by adding <object name="resource.*" /> to the admin group in the ACL. Was this some kind of bug ?

From the serverlog start: Resource 'race-dam' started [19:12:20] Map 'Blow the Dam' started. [19:12:20] ERROR: xmlLoadFile failed; ModifyOtherObjects in ACL denied resource race to access race-dam [19:12:20] WARNING: Error while loading race-dam: no meta.xml

And DONT bump old threads

We once did that, it took us 2 evenings to complete the clanwar LOL

I doubt they will disable gamepads. How would they do that? I think they mean that mouse+KB will be forced, which only affects the auto-aim. But that doesnt discard the analogue. When i play with the mouse+KB mode my pad still is analogue and i can still lean properly on bikes. About the mouse thing, i think u can map it so that your arrows (D-pad) are a substitute for the mouse.

The developers are working on dm at the moment. If all goes well that mod should have better sync and less lag. There will also be a racemod provided with mta:dm, so hopefully we'll be able to race virtually lagfree then

Im not too sure about that tbh. When i set my GTA to mouse+KB i can still use my pad WITH anologue functionality. For example, its still possible to lean on a bike without getting the "tapping effect". Im guessing MTA:DM will force the mouse+kb mode to prevent people from using the auto-aim. Perhaps a developer can tell us what effect this will have on the anologueness but from what i've seen in race it shouldnt have any effect at all. hmmm, i think u can but a stick just hasnt got the range a mouse has. I can use my right stick to look around in race but i cant look around corners like i would be able to do with a mouse.

Im using 3rd party drivers for my xbox 360 controller and it works just fine, both analogue sticks are functioning as analogue sticks. Although i must say I have used that pinnacle profiler in the past and it worked perfectly as well. The only disadvantage is that u have to load the program every time u want to play.

Great!

Do we have to rebuild this ourselfs or will there be a racemod provided together with the dm mod? I ask this cuz we host a fairly popular race server atm and we would like to continue this with the improved sync and added features. Regardless of this, is it possible to import or convert the old racemaps to dm?
