  1. As far as I know, we have no rules against selling resources. Obviously, we're not responsible if you get ripped off.
  2. Hamachi is a VPN, so it's not really part of the internet. Obviously, if you use Hamachi you won't get listed in the server list.
  3. This might be caused by your web server sending an error page or similar to the client - check your web server's logs if you can.
  4. I'm pretty sure you already have a way to do this. Edit:
  5. Shouldn't this be on the wiki?
  6. Windows always has an administrator account. This may be helpful, I'm not sure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows- ... ows-vista/
  7. It's executed once when the script is loaded (when the resource is started). There's already a global variable called root that you should use - so you don't need to do what you're talking about in your example.
  8. Just for the record, XML will almost always be worse for anything that isn't configuration information - if you expect the information you want to save to change often (e.g. new players joining, etc), then it's a bad choice. If you want to quickly find an item, then it's a bad choice. If you just want to load something up on server start up, then it's fine. Every time you save an XML file you rewrite the entire file, which takes quite some time.

    Bus-System

    Of course there is, there are scripts for controlling vehicles around.
  10. I've removed his comment, that's all we can do really. I would suggest that you aren't too blatant with your credits - if you don't piss people off too much, they won't be as keen to remove the credits. You'll get more respect for writing a good script than you will for shouting about it.
  11. Remember, MTA is open source, don't be afraid to get the code and have a go at implementing things you think are useful.
  12. Karlis, you're answering a different question - he's asking if there's a benefit to having multiple script files, not multiple resources. So, no, it doesn't matter from a technical sense - as far the Lua is concerned they may as well all be one file. The benefit to splitting it up is that it makes it easier to find what code you're after, and generally lets you separate different areas of your code from each other. You'll probably find your code easier to understand if you split it up, especially if you come back to it in 6 months time!
  13. MTA has an element limit of 65535, assuming you have some players, vehicles etc and some of the standard elements, your object limit is going to be somewhere around 65000.

    Possible MTA infection

    Processes are made of a number of modules. You may have viewed the GTA memory (or MTA for that matter), but you'll still have any number of other DLLs loaded into it, from any other source.

    Possible MTA infection

    Well, bear in mind that this is your computer's memory you're browsing, not MTA's. MTA certainly doesn't have anything to do with 'Bandoo' included, so I guess your computer has (or had) it installed. Check to see if you've got anything in c:\Program Files\Bandoo. Bandoo, from what I gather inserts emoticons into other chat programs. I guess it does this by injecting a DLL into the chat program's process. It probably injects it's DLL into every process on your system. It seems to be bordering on a malware/scamware from what I've read. Check what module the data belongs to, and that should tell you more.
  16. It seems this could be useful - what are your custom elements?
  17. What, all our code, the scripts, and the fact that you're playing multiplayer should happen magically in absolutely no CPU time? Obviously MTA performs worse than standard GTA - it does a whole lot more than GTA does.
  18. The old way was never supported, and the new way is far better, and avoids bad sync. It'd probably be possible to write a script that would take an entire handling.cfg and let you import it.
  19. To clarify, doReturn expects an array as it is this array that becomes the arguments to the callback function of callRemote. Passing a dictionary/table makes no sense. Of course, the PHP code should tell you this. If someone wants to fix that and upload a new version, feel free.

    Some skins

    Orange looks really good, black perhaps a bit unclear.
  21. I hope that nobody is going to spend time on making Windows 8 work at this stage. We went though this with Vista and Windows 7, and in each case the same was said - we won't officially support it until it's released. In fact read that link above and it's spookily similar to this thread.
  22. What other aspects of the theme are there that aren't the skin? Maybe a few alert icons? The server browser just is what it is, and you're the first person I've heard complain about it. I'm sure if you had more constructive feedback it could be taken on board.
  23. "Bullet Time" doesn't work in multiplayer games. Think about it.
