Yes.

Ok... Is there any reason you said that?

local scx, scy = guiGetScreenSize() local myScreenSource;

A small shader test.

I was talking about a debugscript log or something we could handle. What you are talking about atm could be ANYTHING, including wrong mtaserver.conf settings.

Lets explain it this way: Previous versions: The Microsoft ® Windows ® ® ® "elevated rights" window appeared. This version: A (homemade?) window appears asking you to "log in as user 'administrator'". At least for me (Windows ® 7 Homo Edition). As soon as I got rid of my fever I'll post useful screenshots.

How are we supposed to know what errors you are talking about?

The 1.2.0 installer asks me to log in as "Administrator", even though there is only ONE user on my laptop which only has elevated rights if asked for it. That means instead of auto-installing the stuff like it used to, it never asked for elevated rights, tried to log me in as a user that doesn't exists, and failed hard at installing. I needed to re-download the file with firefox and to start it "with elevated rights" for it to be working. Thats a bit weird, I am used to be pampered by the MTA update a little more. Also, since the 1.1.0 resources and the 1.2.0 resources aren't BANGING different any more, can you copy the resource folder for future updates? That saves many people a big download.

Update for 1.2.0: #!/bin/bash MTA_VERSION="1.2.0" TARGET_FOLDER="./" SERVER_NAME="mta-server" mkdir $MTA_VERSION cd $MTA_VERSION wget "http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/120/multitheftauto_linux-$MTA_VERSION.tar.gz" tar xfvz "multitheftauto_linux-$MTA_VERSION.tar.gz" aArray=$(ls | grep -i "multitheftauto_linux-$MTA_VERSION") for currID in `echo $aArray` do echo "$currID" | grep -i ".tar.gz" if [ $? -eq 1 ] then FOLDERNAME=$currID fi done echo "------------" echo "$FOLDERNAME" echo "------------" cp -ruf "$FOLDERNAME"/* ./ rm -rf "multitheftauto_linux"* cd .. cp -ruf ./$MTA_VERSION/* ./ #mv -fu mta-server $SERVER_NAME rm -rf ./$MTA_VERSION

Where is your linux server? What are the ports used? Do you use the internal or an external application for downloading/uploading the resources (i.e. Apache)? Are the resources available for the external application?

Its about network data. Not about resources. Nuff said, they "invented" this feature so you are able to do remote calls without a hacker being able to hijack the communication/without a hacker being able to read the scripts you MAY send via remote calls manually. There was a discussion about how to protect your resources, and one guy suggested to send them via remote calls and execute them client side with a script. In other words, don't expect MTA to do your job, lazy bone.

Even the ninja-hackers using a Macbook join this club.

I dunno why, but it seems I am not capable of attaching a texture onto a model. Is there a trick behind it? Some models don't work at all, especially the good/big ones.

Erm guys, if you want to save client-server communications you still could encrypt your resources. After all, not only .lua files can be stolen.

I made a syncro script... It sort of worked out.

Ich hoffe du hast nix dagegen, wenn ich die Maps ein wenig umbaue, so dass sie für ZM geeignet sind?

You may be wrong: the field of view changes in GTA, to make the speed look faster. Instead of your camera going backwards, the picture you see is getting smaller, which makes the car look smaller which makes the car look far away.

There is a teleport cheat, and I am trying to program some cheats as a proof of concept again to give them to ccw.

The ram usage depends on the scripts and the player count. lootsma is right about the average server with "only" 200 MB of RAM, but the average server has a player count of 10-20.

AlvadoZ: look at my post above you.

I've put it on the chaos servers.

Nope, I don't. I think 12 Gig of RAM is enough for 10 servers Last time I checked his system he was using less then 10%, that means less then 1 Gigabyte of RAM. His CPU usage was below the 20% limit (for one core), too. Those limits are pure fictonal and just result in working together until the LUA scripts are optimized. There is no software limit. If someone goes above those limits, I'll just be nagging them to death. So, his resource usage was "quite normal" for a race server with 20 people.

Meh, nothing new then.

I think diegofkda is right: Try to deactivate the custom mods. By that I don't talk about shaders, but about all .dff, .txd and .col objects. Also, try to divide your maps into smaller maps, and move them out of the inner city. Can you try to count the streamed-in objects?

I hope you can download it officially now, because up to now I didn't have the balls to upload them on my server.
