  1. You can switch back to the old theme in the settings. MTA giving you a username on each update sounds like a bug.
  2. I'd like to repeat what Talidan says: if you'd like MTA to be localized in your language, please help us by adding support to the main codebase for a proper localization engine. See here for some notes I made on this earlier in the year. Taking MTA and rebranding it as your own is not something we encourage - you'll end up either being stuck with an old version of MTA or perpetually rehacking the code around as new features are added to it. Help MTA out by helping us do it properly, and respect the vast amount of time we've put in to developing it over the last 8 years or so by not claiming it as your own work.

    guiCreateFont Help

    That's what debug script will tell you, JR10 isn't a script interpreter.
  4. Don't set an IP in your configuration file.
  5. As a host, you aren't responsible for the content you host (in the us at least) assuming you remove any content that is infringing someone's copyright when they notify you.

    MTA socket in PHP

    The PHP SDK is what you want.
  7. You shouldn't set the server ip in your config unless you really know you need to. About the only reason you'd need to is if you have more than one network card in your server.
  8. I believe it is improved. See https://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtop ... 39#p350437
  9. hitElement isn't a ped, it's probably a vehicle.

    MTA socket in PHP

    No, it's for both ways. You can call the PHP SDK from your server or call the server code from PHP.

    Server list spam

    Well, you wouldn't use wc.com, would you, it's not available. But look at a server like CIT for example: It puts cit2.net at the end of it's server name. We can detect that, do a DNS lookup on that address and find that it's IP matches the server's IP (which it does in CIT's case). If CIT hadn't hosted the server on the same IP as their website, then they could instead put server.cit2.net in their URL, which we can then verify in the same way as above. This still provides a 'proof of ownership' of the server, as only the server owner can make that DNS entry. We could then provide a search field that lets you search by the domain names we've verified in this way. Nobody else could ever have a server on your domain without you knowing (unless it was hacked, obviously). We could easily engineer the filter to prevent people doing things like cit.net.someotherwebsite.ru.

    Server list spam

    You wouldn't need to know anything the websites, you'd just have to make a DNS entry.

    Server list spam

    You could add a subdomain that points at your server surely?

    Server list spam

    It seems to me that that one approach that would require no effort in the client, would be to make it so that the first server to use some prefix on their server name 'owns' that prefix (much like domain names). An alternative might be to actually use domain names - if you begin your address with a domain name, the server list server does a lookup on that an confirms that the IP matches your server's, if not, your server isn't shown in the list. This seems a more elegant solution to me.
  15. Multiply it by 100?
  16. MTA, of course, already has vehicle sync code that deals with all of these issues, it would seem sensible for that to be reused in a situation like this.

    Well, add it then!
  18. That's a great video - as others have said, it's nice to have a voiceover
  19. Competition is almost always a good thing, and I struggle to see why it isn't in this case? These smaller servers can compete to get the players from other servers by providing a better experience. One big server might just disenfranchise all the players.
  20. But the total player count is steadily increasing. It seems suprising that both could be true...

    MTA 1.1 Connect Problem

    If there was more protection, we'd hardly give you such a cryptic error would we? 1.1 has new features, some of which may have bugs that might be causing this problem.
  22. Khulna, Bangladesh to Cape Agulhas, Western Cape, South Africa - 25,261 km, 14 days 11 hours I'm not sure if that's beatable, at least not by much. Google's routing across country boundaries is very inconsistent.

    Traffic & Peds

    There's no need to be so agressive - let's have less 'back-seat' moderating and more friendliness please?
  24. When it's done, as with all our releases.
