Go to your gta-vc.exe Right click it Click Properties Click Compatibility tab Run it in "Windows 98" compatibility (It still works with MTA.... Wait, shh, yes. It works with MTA. Stop arguing! It works with MTA. No, stop. It works with MTA.) That'll fix your texture problem right up! And you can play without frame limiter.

Damn minorities! Wait, are women a minority?

How's your ping?

http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t=6451 Read that. 1 out of 10 people cheat. To put it plainly: You don't know how to play, so in a certain respect, YOU suck. Also, MTA is probably the best mod I've ever experienced, for any game. I wouldn't consider it a mod, I'd consider it a revolution in Grand Theft Auto history! And if you don't want to be a part of it, then don't make us suffer by listening to your whining. I hardly ever crash. I definitely don't have any problems connecting, unless it's full, because so many people love playing MTA...

If it just synced the weather right when you joined it'd eventually get off a bit, due to lag/frame rate problems. Some guy running at 10 frames per second, and another at 70+ frames per second, different time syncs.

Well, I definitely think time should be synced, even if it may cause a little more lag.

Actually I made a topic about this a while ago, it seems the best bet would be to make specific servers for RPG games. The majority of MTA players don't see it as an RPG game, but as more of a deathmatch game (Like Quake?) but in a much bigger "arena". Unfortunately (or Fortunately?), the Devs see it as that big "arena". But in the end, when the final product is released, it'll have so many features and capabilities it'll work as an RPG and a Deathmatch, and hopefully, there will be servers for both. Someone make an MTA:RPG server! (There was one for a little while about a month ago, it was fun as hell, but it went away )

More synced = More lag? Seems like it would be, especially syncing all those traffic lights all over the city.

I press Enter...

I play in 98 Compatibility (fixes texture problems) No MTA problems here whatsoever... Except maybe the crashes, but that's supposed to happen They probably say their "actions aren't registered" meaning they can't hit people because the aiming system is a little cooky in MTA and they just suck at MTA...

Hey, there's a large flow of cheaters on the Official servers. I'm just curious how many admins there are, how often they check in, etc. These cheaters have gotten so used to it now they're even admitting they cheat or blatently showing it by using invincible cars, flying firetrucks, invincibility, etc. It's been the same people for a week or more now... They've gotten so used to it they think it's actually a part of the game and that they're actually legitimatly 'owning' everyone.

Curious, has it always done that or did it just start?

100%...

Personally, I love the 'lag'. It makes the experienced players (who know more about the 'lag' and how to cope with it) better killers as opposed to the "Point & Shoot" newbies who don't know shit about MTA! I love the 'lag' (which to me is a totally new game system, keeps it fun you know?).. So by all means, keep it in. However, bugs should be fixed, obviously.

Okay, it may be hard to understand, but what YOU see on YOUR screen isn't happening exactly that way, in fact, it may not even be happening at all. The sooner you figure that out, you'll be a better MTA player. Also, the Stubby reload is synced. The pump shotgun reload is synced. As for everything else, you may see a reload, but you're actually still shooting. Is it weird? I guess it is if you think superficially. The only thing that doesn't reload are clips. IE: Uzi, Pistol, M60 (?), Spas, etc...

I do that with the spas. I never let go of that damn fire key! Oh well, now I can direct all the newbs to this thread AND the "Trick To Inflicting Damage" Thread.

This thing in effect yet? I noticed it on the MOTD for the Official servers and it doesn't seem to work. Any feedback on its availability or how to use it would be nice (Yes, I used the search)

*walks in* *shoots himself* I hate you all.

Better than having a name like "SUPER L33T!". How often do you hear people refer to themself as a Utopia(n) instead of saying "I AM PWNAGE!" ?? Hm? In case you're curious, I got the word "Utopia" off one of my favorite songs. Didn't know what it meant, so I looked it up, and wow it fit online gaming perfectly... I guess I won twice! Anyway, way off topic now. Should have used the SEARCH function! *slap slap on wrist* Hey IJs, what kind of sig is that?! ...I don't like conformity.

Even with other guns I don't see reloading. However, when they stop shooting I see the reload animation, and then they run. Just like if you shoot with the spas and then stop, he cocks then gun before you can move. I've never seen an m60, m4, any uzi, pistol, etc reload..

Same here. I get accused of cheating all the time.

I figured I'd settle this once and for all... I don't see any reloading for any weapons except a Spas every now and then. With every gun, and 90% of the time with the spas, I never see anyone reload! I hear people say they see reloading, but I'm not sure if it's true or if they're just stupid. I've done tests with the spas and nobody has ever seen it reload, and I don't see them reload. Is reloading synced?!?!

Did you reinstall MTA? Vice City?

Getting online is like getting behind the wheel...
