I had this happen a few times to me, like "Asylum Gaming" servers that wasn't mine. Nothing you can do though (not that I know of) except tell your members and hope people don't join the others thinking its yours (Happened many times to aG)

MTASA.com <== That's a pretty sweet engine and guess what? YOU CAN MAKE ANY MODE EVAAAAAAAAA!!!

I dont understand.... A basic RP script? Whys this considered a "gaming engine"? I helped briefly helped create Venux Roleplay which is a great open source RP for beginners and best of all its free.....

Hey everyone, so one day myself and Aero had an idea for a new type of gamemode. It's kind of a RPG, we decided to call it San Andreas: Extended. I have begun the project, however before I continued with the progress I decided I'd make this post to see what kind of response it would receive and if many players would want this gamemode and actively play on it. So now to the details; 1. Firstly the entire environment would be interactive. 2. You would create your own custom character either CJ with custom clothing or any ped 3. Missions would be implemented as well as a level and experience structure, the higher your level you will gain points to boost the stats of your character. 4. There are five stats you can spend your points on which are; Strength, Driving Skill, Weapon, Stamina and intelligence. I will briefly explain what each stat is good for.... Intelligence - How well you can crack safes, pick locks and disarm explosive/plant explosives in vehicles and buildings Strength - How hard you can hit, they are able to carry more items and heavier weapons and larger items. Driving Skill - Everyone starts out barely being able to control their vehicles, the higher this skill goes up the faster, and better handling you have for ANY vehicle Weapon - Again everyone will start with no weapons skill meaning it is very difficult (but still possible) to use weapons efficiently. The higher this skill is the more precise your shots are and deadly the impact is. Stamina - How long you can run, swim and an increase of sustainability when receiving fire 5. You will be able create your own group with your friends! Meaning when you join a server there are some bare minimal requirements before you can go and create a group. -You MUST be at least level 5. -You can either make a gang, mafia or a branch of a PD -GANG; You must have 5 players who are not already in another group to join. -MAFIA; You must have 10 players who are not already in another group to join. -POLICE; You must have 15 players who are not already in another group to join. 6. Each faction type has it's own set of missions in addition to players individual missions. This may sound confusing but each player must complete a fix set of missions with or without a group, in addition to boost your skills and level you can participate in faction missions which may include "Eliminate 10 rival gang members" and each member will have a counter on the right of the screen so they will go out and kill until they reach their goal and they are all credited the rewards of the missions. 7. Players can buy houses to be used as HQ for their gang or mafia, or if not in a faction used just for your house. You can decorate the interior how ever you wish they are completely empty. You can use the money you got from either killing rival gang members or completing missions to buy furniture, clothes (for CJ ONLY, if you selected a ped you cant change!) weapons, and vehicles. 8. The PD will have missions such as escort the bank truck to LV from LS. Now online gang and mafia members will be alerted of the movement of the bank truck. However if they dont wish to participate they can do a different mission or even help the police if they choose to for money reasons. (That's where the RP comes in, what would you do if your made man helped the police?) 9. What happens when you reaches the max level? Now its a game of respect. Gang and Mafia factions will be fighting for the controlling state of territories. This is similar to the game Risk. There will be many territories in each island. Between certain hours of the day there will be random fights for territories. So territories on your F11 map will begin to flash. If your group had control of the flashing territory there is a timer for you to reach it and protect it. If you are offline then others will fight for the territory without you sadly. The last group standing in the territory alive will get the territory. The more territories your group owns the more money they get every hour. Of you control an entire Island you get exclusive items as well as weapons. 10. When you are killed for any reason you drop your current money and weapons, so take advantage of either your group Stamina buff or your vehicles inventory. 11. Completely custom hud with level, minimap, experience bar and health bar. NOTE level one only has 20HP the highest level players will have 500HP It's a lot of reading but what do you guys think. Would you be interested in playing this type of gamemode?

" About a year later, EA announced that the game would shut down all activity on August 1, 2008.[3] The next online games in the series are MySims (PC version only) followed by The Sims Social for Facebook." ^Aka farmvile knock off like most of facebooks games And I am saying I'd make it with lua lol and for basic functionality it wouldn't take tooo long. I'm not saying the devs of MTA make a sims version lol

Hey everyone, I was surfing the net when I came across some news regarding The Sims. Numerous players and I mean hundreds were discussing a possible multiplayer for The Sims. For example raise your sims and then your friends IRL can stroll by and see your house and do Sims things lol. However EA Games said there is absolutely no possibility of a multiplayer mode. I could create such a mode with MTA simulating The Sims. Would you guys be interested in something like this for MTA? I know it would attract The Sims large player base and maybe they will stick around perhaps boosting the MTA population. It's just a thought, what do you guys think?

Yeah I stumbled upon this section and made this up around 1am my time so I apologize for small careless mistakes but for a user who never had any experience with tables I feel it would give them a good idea how they work and why they are so useful Also I did reference them as temp db only to show that storing data are all the same, a MySQL data base is just a series of tables with indexs. Btw good addition with the string value for table.troll completely forgot to add that and to the last post if by the time I get home from college tonight I'll write up a quick tutorial if it's not already made

Hello everyone, I'm going to give you the basics of tables. Tables are useful for numerous things and if you are looking to create a game mode it's a must know. So let's just dive into it: You can think of tables as a temporary database (db), where you can store integers (numbers), characters (letters), lines of text ("such as this") and variables (which can be any of the previously stated). So before it gets too complicated let's start with a basic empty table table = {} That's it, you have now created an empty table! Now let's populate it so I can give you some good examples; table = {1,"two", "this last value is three"} Now that you have some values in your table you can now reference to them. Tables are indexed by default meaning in this table, table[1] = 1, table[2] = "two", table[3] = "this last value is three" So for example: table[1] = 1 table (because that is what our table is named) [1] (because its the first value of the table) so if that's the case then table[2] = "two" Simple isn't it? Now here is some more advanced stuff that is good to know, You can actually add values after setting up a table, so it is not limited to the initial setup. For example: local randomNumbers = {4, 5, 11, 10, 9} function addNumber(source, cmd, arg) if arg == nil -- theres no specific value to add arg = 1 else arg = arg end randomNumbers[6] = arg --- this will add a 6th value into the table end addCommandHandler("addNumber", addNumber) Now you can use table.insert(table, index, value) and table.remove(value, index) but there are shortcuts and it is whatever the scripter prefers. If you guys are interested in more complex table function let me know I will find time to whip up another tutorial. This is just the tip of the iceberg of what tables can do. Happy scripting guys!

Thanks for the input guys. My server was in LV and we also held a vote and it seems although used often LS is always the most preferred city. Although I have thought about making my own city it would render the minimap useless as wel as the f11 map Most people like Rping illegal factions and LS provides the perfect environment IMO for gangs of all races with mafia undertones (such as the pier for disposing bodies). It also gives the government and legal factions official looking buildings and with pershing square allowing high point of interest points in a small location it's ideal for new players to get familiar.

Just wondering for all you RPers out there, what is your ideal city to RP in? Please no trolls or flame wars just which city you prefer and a short reason why.

woah I never seen anything this cool before.... or have I

I voted no for the reason specified. You want to make community scripts great assemble a small team and do it don't evolve everyone because now it becomes a battle on who gets credit and if you do the most of the project the only thing you want is your name in the credit correct? Well guess what your not going to get it and it was cause flame wars on the forums.

That's because those yes votes are mooching noobs who can't script, but are so power hungry they jump in and call themselves developers. At the end of the project they will say they did it all themselves because they commented their name in a script.

That way you shouldn't be allowed to play MTA Oh no, a noob who thinks he's sassy and edgy trying to make fun of myself and Benxamix2. Your coming off as queer and retarded... bad nooby stop that

No, paying for MTA is not only completely idiotic but I prefer to have 50 players in one sever than 2-3 who pay. If MTA was to have any control over servers I suggest (as I have said many times before) allowing only reputable players run servers. That way if someone steals your scripts who cares they can't make a copycat server. I have known a few great players who have quit MTA all together because every other person who makes friends with you gets their hands on your hard work then release their own server with your scripts and their name on it. An application process would be perfect. But well known thriving servers won't have to fill it out. If it were to be such a process I will personally help review every last application.

@Benxamix2 yeah I am only trolling, I am simply tired of noobs (not new players; "noob" as in shitty players who start servers and cant script). So if you were to make a roleplay script and lets say its as complex as valhalla people will strip your name from it and call it their own. Almost makes me want to quit mta all together To the Developers of MTA please allow only reputable players to run servers

Um, no it's okay don't waste everyones time

Yeah I know what you mean that's why you see a lot of other RP servers... they are usually kids who got screwed from the power hungry admins. If you are a good RPer I would enjoy to have you apart of the Asylum Gaming community. As of now its quiet on the forums because I am focusing on more features than promoting as of now. As for the 500+ players I could only imagine all the Rp possibilities there unfortunately mta isn't that popular to have that many players at one I believe the highest was 300 in a server at one time. www.asylumgaming.net sign up contact me on there add my skype and if your RP is epic we will work out a rank for you within the staff.

If you want good rp quality Valhalla is the best out if the current rp servers on the server browser but there's too much bullish*t to register you need to fill out an application like a test and they can deny you after hours or days of waiting to get your app looked at. That's why in my old server I allowed a quick register so you can get in game and start RPing. It will be released soon keep an eye out for it.(still in development)

Hello everyone, Asylum is looking for mappers to be apart of the aG Mapping Staff. You will be given credit for all your work and most important your work will be protected. I have created a structure so all maps are strictly server sided meaning no one will ever reuse your map. We are currently looking for the following. Empty interiors (maybe 20 or so) Interior for towing faction anything else you think would be a great interior (casinos, banks, ect.) We do not want exterior mappers so if you can not create an interior from scratch or build of an existing one please refrain from applying. We are looking for interior mappers with a lot of creativity and unique ideas. You will be apart of the Asylum Team and given access to beta testing as well as a name in the credits and a lot of other bonuses. IM my Skype (in Sig) or go to asylumgaming.net and contact Lukkaz. Thank you and good luck to all applicants.

lol what a troll you could've just sent your last line lmao

+1, yeah I knew that's how it worked but I figured there may have been an emulator developed for 1.1.1 or something along those lines and take a shot in the dark lol thanks guys

Well the idea I was trying to do is allow players to choose a modified version of cj like White, Asian, Black, Hispanic, ect. so the players could have custom clothing and customize their character. So it would only change the color of his skin. So instead of replacing the txd some how just change the color of certain cjs skin and sync it for all players?

Is it possible to only replace the TXD of specific pedestrians? For example 3 pedestrians with the skin id 285 (swat skin). Would there be any way at all that I could replace one of them with a custom swat TXD and the other 2 stay default? Thanks guys -Lukkaz

@OZ yeah, you need to reorder your mtaconfig to fun the important resources first, it worked.
