in .3 I want a line of text to last 5-8 seconds MAX. if a line of text becomes that old, then it disappears from teh screen if all the lines are gone, then the chat disappears from the screen, until next text appears (IE: Half life, quake, etc.)

1) they're ignorant and don't know about the patch or 2) custom handling.cfg file server

when using the chaingun you have to stand still, right? another words.. if you're standing still to fire, then the enemy gets a clean shot at you

or make it like 2-3 seconds or if someone connects X times in X seconds, then ban for 10 minutes

umm how about NOT sending data unless the data changes IE: i'm running forward, so update my coords the client detects i was shot, my health goes down... send server my updated health i get in a car, send to server that i did this i'm moving forward, send my velocity, angle of car, position repeatedly (unless i've stopped)

i think if pure server is DISABLED, then everyone will download the server's files, and use them, instead of the defaults. and the CRC check should be on the server's files then, instead of the default mta files

maybe VCC could pick the place they want to spawn? maybe a box pops up and you hit a key to where you want to spawn IE: 1: some place 2: another place 3: another another place mexicans:.... hmm. really have no clue. also: you shouldn't have to repick your class EVERYTIME you die. there should be a key to change class

in a future version, it would be nice if, as a cop, you could BUST somebody, if they got knocked to the ground, you could push a key if they were busted, they would lose mOST of their weapons, or MONEY (in future) or something like that, and they would end up in the prison, or outside the jail, or something.

i like the idea of a 2-in-1program it helps the programmers TREMENDOUSLY and helps out people with both games What idon't like is the jump back to version .1 That's retarded.. people are going to see MTA .2 and MTA.1, and they'll download .2 The whole thing with MTA .1 doesn't make sense. Why are you reverting to a lower number, when that version includes MORE features? Atleast do something like MTA .2.5 or MTA .25 or something like that. it really doesn't make any sense

I too experienced that loading screen problem. few things i'd like to add: 1) How about a key combo to automatically CONNECT / DISCONNECT from a server IE: I get disconnected randomly from a server. I should be able to hit like CTRL + 1 or something, to reconnect to the server, instead of alt+tabbing b ack and forth 2) Game crashes if you get disconnected from server, alt +tab to reconnect, then go into VC and "restart Multitheft auto" or whatever option is in the menu not sure if it works even if you DON'T get disconnected, but it's a problem, none the less

i'm pretty sure ALL of the skin characters are ontop of a roof, so you can change into them, even though they're not all used in .2 i'm guessing if you have too many players, then it'll start using the abnormal skins... unless MTA has the ability to SPAWN / Duplicate more characters

i'd like GTA3 only for the first island. the other 2 are sort of lame... the second one is a bit alright, though as far as cars, I like GTA3's style of cars.. but GTA3 is horribly demanding on my system it takes like 1 minute to load completely... VC takes like 20 seconds MTA would have to not crash *AT ALL* for me to play the GTA3 version.. because i'm not going to wait a minute or more each time the thing crashes

LOL Highly doubt .3's planning period is even complete, yet.

the driver was most likely holding the horn button, they're sync'd now.

agreed, knuckles sometimes to get into a van, i have to use HOME on the passenger door... other times i have to use it on the back of the van very weird

so this will most likely be fixed in a future version?

TAXI we need atleast 1 taxi in the game

I noticed that as a passenger, the game seems "laggy" when you're riding i've noticed this seems to be because the cars seem to think the emergency brake is CONSTANTLY on, while the car is moving... thus, you can see the black tire lines on the ground while driving.. so it appears that the game is lagging, but it's really not that's my theory, ... or is there some reason why the car appears to have the emergency brake on constantly?

Yeah, a few days before .2, some guy was using the name "IJs" and saying that he's part of the MTA team (obviously referring to you)... he kept saying he had to leave because he had to get back to testing MTA .2

good plan

i was thinking that, but that would make the scoreboard huge i'm still not sure what colors each dot means (perhaps have a legend bound to a key, that you can press to bring it up)

read the manual, actually sailors get +2 health a second, or something like that mexican gets a huge gatling gun, i believe, and others get other advantages

Occasionally Cops will appear as SAILORS this seems to be the only real skin anomaly i've seen. a cop as a sailor. it rarely happends, but it happends enough to seriously confuse the hell out of the person getting shot at , AND the shooter

How about having a DOT to the left of the player's name (IE: minimap dot) showing what class the player is? so it'd look like O Playername Score Ping where O is a colored dot

1) perhaps you're reading the error message wrong, and it says you don't have .1? maybe you're trying to join a .1 server? 2) don't use shortcuts, to test. use windows explorer / my computer and navigate to MTA directly, to make sure you're running .2 of the client
