<div>==Introduction==<br />
Multi Theft Auto: mIRC Admin (MTA:mA) is an admin client for MTA developed by ''Aeron'' in [http://www.mirc.com mIRC]. It has the possibility to create and run custom-made mIRC scripts on MTA servers, useful for creating gamemodes, whilst providing other functions such as cheat protection and links to other programs.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===v1 series===<br />
<br />
It all started back in the MTA:VC 0.2.2 days. A normal player nicknamed ''Aeron'' drives around on his ''PCJ600'' and sees some other players racing 'orginized' racing. He joins the club and did some races. The only problem was that the countdown of 5 wasn't really smooth and the player who's typing it was always the first to start or the last. ''Aeron'' wondered if there was not a possibility to get some sort of script running that does the countdown that gets triggerd with '!count'. After some searching he realized there was no such ability. Therefore he decided to make his own. With use of ''Ethereal'' he sniffed around in the packets that MTA sends and note them down. He saw that the packets were not encoded and that there was some sort of structure. After creating alot of mIRC-scripts over the years, he created one to connect with a MTA server as a client and named it ''MTA Connection Script''. After some scripting he could finally create his very wanted '!count'-script:<br />
<br />
alias mta.text {<br />
if ($2 == !count) {<br />
mta.say Count down!<br />
.timer9 1 1 mta.say 5<br />
.timer8 1 2 mta.say 4<br />
.timer7 1 3 mta.say 3<br />
.timer6 1 4 mta.say 2<br />
.timer5 1 5 mta.say 1<br />
.timer4 1 6 mta.say GOGOGO!<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC 0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC 0.3.<br />

After creating alot of mIRC-scripts over the years, he created one to connect with a MTA server as a client and named it ''MTA Connection Script''. After some scripting he could finally create his very wanted '!count'-script:<br />
<br />
alias mta.text {<br />
if ($2 == !count) {<br />
mta.say Count down!<br />
.timer9 1 1 mta.say 5<br />
.timer8 1 2 mta.say 4<br />
.timer7 1 3 mta.say 3<br />
.timer6 1 4 mta.say 2<br />
.timer5 1 5 mta.say 1<br />
.timer4 1 6 mta.say GOGOGO!<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC 0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC 0.3.<br />

<p>Towncivilian: Changed dead mtablue.info link to our archived page</p>
<hr />
<div>Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas is built upon a new core codenamed "[http://files.mtasa.com/web/mtablue.info/ Blue]" which has been in development for two years. Blue represents a major shift in the team's focus because they will be providing users with all the tools they need to create their own game modes and leaving much of the game mode creation to third parties. There will be a few "default" game modes included with the installation package though. The first release of ''MTA:SA'' includes vehicle racing only. Deathmatch is expected at a later date once the team have fully synchronised shooting and balanced the gameplay. <br />
<br />
=== Feature summary ===<br />
* Optimised netcode results in reduced lag.<br />
* Blue loads a DLL with the game instead of injecting code into its memory process. This improves stability and means that custom SCM files do not have to be moved to the game's directory when it is started.<br />
* Full integration means that Blue's server list is directly integrated into ''GTA'''s GUI.<br />
* Fewer glitches. This is achieved by synchronizing every animation, implementing a custom pause menu so that people can't pause to escape death, and forcing the frame limiter on so that everyone's game runs at the same maximum speed.<br />
* Greater synchronization means that all animations, skins, weapons and vehicles are now available. This means that ''MTA'' players can finally use boats.<br />
* Modification support through C++ means that complex game modes can be created, unlike the rudimentary ones possible with MTA:mA at the moment.<br />
<br />
The advanced nature of the Blue core has allowed them to place a sophisticated WYSIWYG editor into MTA:SA for adding checkpoints, spawn points and power-ups. It also allows users to place extra models into the game such as ramps, roads, trees and exploding barrels.<br />
<br />
==Links==<br />

MTA:mA
2011-08-19T06:58:07Z

<hr />
<div>==Introduction==<br />
Multi Theft Auto: mIRC Admin (MTA:mA) is an admin client for MTA developed by ''Aeron'' in [http://www.mirc.com mIRC]. It has the possibility to create and run custom-made mIRC scripts on MTA servers, useful for creating gamemodes, whilst providing other functions such as cheat protection and links to other programs.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===v1 series===<br />
<br />
It all started back in the MTA:VC 0.2.2 days. A normal player nicknamed ''Aeron'' drives around on his ''PCJ600'' and sees some other players racing 'orginized' racing. He joins the club and did some races. The only problem was that the countdown of 5 wasn't really smooth and the player who's typing it was always the first to start or the last. ''Aeron'' wondered if there was not a possibility to get some sort of script running that does the countdown that gets triggerd with '!count'. After some searching he realized there was no such ability. Therefore he decided to make his own. With use of ''Ethereal'' he sniffed around in the packets that MTA sends and note them down. He saw that the packets were not encoded and that there was some sort of structure. After creating alot of mIRC-scripts over the years, he created one to connect with a MTA server as a client and named it ''MTA Connection Script''. After some scripting he could finally create his very wanted '!count'-script:<br />
<br />
alias mta.text {<br />
if ($2 == !count) {<br />
mta.say Count down!<br />
.timer9 1 1 mta.say 5<br />
.timer8 1 2 mta.say 4<br />
.timer7 1 3 mta.say 3<br />
.timer6 1 4 mta.say 2<br />
.timer5 1 5 mta.say 1<br />
.timer4 1 6 mta.say GOGOGO!<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC 0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC 0.3.<br />

<p>Towncivilian: Added links to missing MTA:mA versions.</p>
<hr />
<div>==Introduction==<br />
Multi Theft Auto: mIRC Admin (MTA:mA) is an admin client for MTA developed by ''Aeron'' in [http://www.mirc.com mIRC]. It has the possibility to create and run custom-made mIRC scripts on MTA servers, useful for creating gamemodes, whilst providing other functions such as cheat protection and links to other programs.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===v1 series===<br />
<br />
It all started back in the MTA:VC 0.2.2 days. A normal player nicknamed ''Aeron'' drives around on his ''PCJ600'' and sees some other players racing 'orginized' racing. He joins the club and did some races. The only problem was that the countdown of 5 wasn't really smooth and the player who's typing it was always the first to start or the last. ''Aeron'' wondered if there was not a possibility to get some sort of script running that does the countdown that gets triggerd with '!count'. After some searching he realized there was no such ability. Therefore he decided to make his own. With use of ''Ethereal'' he sniffed around in the packets that MTA sends and note them down. He saw that the packets were not encoded and that there was some sort of structure. After creating alot of mIRC-scripts over the years, he created one to connect with a MTA server as a client and named it ''MTA Connection Script''. After some scripting he could finally create his very wanted '!count'-script:<br />
<br />
alias mta.text {<br />
if ($2 == !count) {<br />
mta.say Count down!<br />
.timer9 1 1 mta.say 5<br />
.timer8 1 2 mta.say 4<br />
.timer7 1 3 mta.say 3<br />
.timer6 1 4 mta.say 2<br />
.timer5 1 5 mta.say 1<br />
.timer4 1 6 mta.say GOGOGO!<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC 0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC 0.3.<br />

''The on-foot combat modes, Dojo Master and Battle Master, feel more like minigames than full-fledged modes. Dojo Master, the melee mode, has exactly one round. You knock the guy out and boom, the round ends and you're kicked to a summary screen. And the camera was just plain not right, seemingly unable to properly pull back and frame the scene. I had to move myself out of the way of the camera many times so I could see what was going on. Battle Master, also known as "last man standing," is also exactly one round, with very small maps and only one life per player. '''All in all, multiplayer doesn't rise to the level of something I'd recommend over, say, Multi-Theft Auto'''.''<br />

''In spite of its popularity among console owners, it is PC gamers who've reaped the most benefits from the Grand Theft Auto series. '''Besides the numerous skins and tweaks available, one of the most infamous mods for GTA is the one known as Multi Theft Auto'''. The modification allows players to get online and battle against other players for dominance. '''The idea has extended to other sandbox-style games, but like their single-player counterparts, the MTA cloning worked about as well as the GTA cloning.''' That is, no one's really come close to emulating it.

MTA 0.5r2 Known Issues
2011-02-02T07:16:43Z
<p>Towncivilian: </p>
<hr />
<div>__NOTOC__This applies to MTA 0.5r2 (both GTA3:MTA and MTA:VC). The known issues for MTA:SA 1.x can be found [[Known_Issues_-_FAQ | here]].<br />
<br />
== Client issues: ==<br />
*'''Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game.'''<br />
As Australian and German EXEs don't work reliably with MTA, this shouldn't be a huge problem. Try to obtain a standard EXE. You can try [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 '''Talidan''''s invalid executable patcher].<br />
*'''Crash when MTA:VC DM is loading.'''<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in single player without MTA before actually running it with MTA. If that doesn't work, try [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip the Vice 1.1 patch]. If that still doesn't work, post in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewforum.php?f=50 the support forum].<br />
*'''Freeze when the client tries to display dialog asking for game path.'''<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</pre><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</pre><br />
*'''XFire crashes game during loading.'''<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
*'''MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage."'''<br />
Try closing every other open window first, then if that doesn't work restart MTA. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5r2.<br />
*'''You join a server and are told you are banned, even though you aren't in the ban list.'''<br />
The cause of this is unknown. You may be banned by a over-general ban in the server's ban list.<br />
*'''Client crashes when you join a server.'''<br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash.<br />
*'''You have quite a few files on your computer called mtachat.txt.'''<br />
mtachat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
*'''Upon clicking "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified.'''<br />
Click '''Start Game''' again.<br />
*'''When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error.'''<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try '''Talidan''''s [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
*'''Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5r2 executable is a virus or malware.'''<br />
MTA does <u>not</u> contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. It is flagged as a false positive because of the way the executable is packed. Ensure you only download the client from our site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5r2/mta05r2_full_installer.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
*'''You get a crash at the address 652F30 when starting the game.'''<br />
Ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
== Gameplay issues: ==<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map) crashes when you try to get on a motorcycle as passenger when it has no driver, as well as a couple other crashes in certain circumstances with motorcycles'''<br />
Sorry, I was unable to fix this for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''MTA:VC DM: You are unable to jump or sprint when a Molotov is your active weapon, but you are able to jump and sprint with Grenades'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map): after exiting spectator mode, you may see a brief glimpse of Tommy falling and potentially receiving fall damage; once you spawn with a skin, you have less than 100 health'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''GTA3:MTA, Turismo/Shoreside Scramble gamemode: During a race, if another racer dies, every living racer crashes.'''<br />
I was also unable to fix this issue for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''GTA3:SSV, Van Heist gamemode: The home base marker flickers, and if the Securicar explodes, then the damage meter shows negative'''<br />
Live with it, neither were worth my time to fix for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
== Server issues: ==<br />
*'''You receive the error "ERROR: The ServerName, ServerPort, GameMap, GameHour, GameMins, Weather and BannedFile MUST be specified in the configuration file" when you run your server, and all fields are filled in. ''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix'''''<br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error.<br />
*'''Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server.'''<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTA:mA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTA:mA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow '''Aeron''''s instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to '''Mike''' for discovering the cause of this problem and '''Aeron''' for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

<br />
*'''In-game MOTDs appear as nonsense.'''<br />
We noticed this during testing but it wasn't fixed. This may be fixed in a future release. In the meantime, server admins can disable the MOTD by changing your mtaserver.conf and use the rich MOTD instead.<br />
<br />
*'''Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game.<br />

We're not sure what causes this, but we know that about 60% of these crashes can be fixed by upgrading to Vice City 1.1. [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip Here's] the 1.1 patch download. If you're already using 1.1, try the next issue's solution.<br />
<br />
*'''Crash when either GTA3 or Vice City are loading.<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in single player without MTA before actually running it with MTA.<br />
<br />
*'''Freeze when client tries to display dialog asking for game path.<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<pre>[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</pre><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<pre>[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</pre><br />
<br />
*'''Crash on client startup.<br />
This is likely caused by the client failing to download the welcome message, since it is no longer being hosted. Fix this by adding "DontGetLatest=1" on the second line of your "mta.ini" in your Multi Theft Auto folder (under "[Main]"). Alternatively, try creating a blank file called "mtaclientwelcome.dat" in your MTA folder - this is probably only relevant if this is the first time you've run the MTA 0.5 client. Change the following value in mta.ini.<br />
<br />
<pre>DontGetLatest=1</pre><br />
<br />
*'''XFire crashes game during loading.<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
<br />
*'''MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage."<br />
Try closing every other open window first. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5. It has also been reported that changing game version from 1.0 to 1.1 (for Vice City) can fix this, though we're not sure why.<br><br />
Further update: All the error reports that have come in about this are using Vice City 1.0. Try updating to [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip 1.1].<br />
<br />
Update: It has been reported that "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" can set off this error. We advise that you close "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" if you wish to play MTA 0.5.<br />
<br />
*'''If you try to spawn as a Crusader twice, you get disconnected for trainer usage.<br />

*'''Your server doesn't appear in the server list, or appears as "unscanned".<br />
This isn't an issue, but ensure that you have the correct port open for ASE to query through. This should be your server port plus 123. For example, with the default port of 2003, port 2126 should be open. This port is UDP.<br><br />

''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix''<br><br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
*'''Client crashes when you join a server.<br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash. This may be fixed in the next client release.<br />
<br />
*'''You have quite a few files on your computer called MTAChat.txt.<br />
MTAChat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Don't worry about it, really... this may be fixed or disabled in the next client version. In the meantime, feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
<br />
*'''Upon hitting "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified.<br />
This is an error with the way we temporarily replace some of the games files. When you install take a back up of both weapon.dat and weapon.mta from the /data/ directory in your Grand Theft Auto folder and put them somewhere safe. If you get this error close the client, REPLACE both files and retry. <br />
<br />
*'''When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error.<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try '''Talidan''''s [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
<br />
*'''Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5 executable is a virus or malware.<br />
MTA does '''not''' contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. If your virus scanner informs you that it is infected, either you have a virus on your computer that is infecting your files, or one of our mirrors has been infected with a virus or your virus scanner is making a mistake. McAfee has been known to make this mistake. We've informed Norton and McAfee of this, but they've yet to fix it. In the meantime, disable your virus scanner while playing. Also, ensure you only download from this site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
<br />
*'''You get a crash at the address 652F30 when starting the game.<br />
This is caused by having the incorrect GXT file. To fix this, copy all the gxt files from the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\TEXT folder except the "american.gxt" into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\MTA folder. You should also ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
*'''Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server.<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTA:mA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTA:mA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow '''Aeron''''s instructions regarding its use.<br />

When you install take a back up of both weapon.dat and weapon.mta from the /data/ directory in your Grand Theft Auto folder and put them somewhere safe. If you get this error close the client, REPLACE both files and retry. <br />
<br />
=== When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error. ===<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try Talidan's [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
<br />
=== Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5 executable is a virus or malware. ===<br />
MTA does '''not''' contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. If your virus scanner informs you that it is infected, either you have a virus on your computer that is infecting your files, or one of our mirrors has been infected with a virus or your virus scanner is making a mistake. McAfee has been known to make this mistake. We've informed Norton and McAfee of this, but they've yet to fix it. In the meantime, disable your virus scanner while playing. Also, ensure you only download from this site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
<br />
=== You get a crash at the address 652f30 when starting the game. ===<br />
This is caused by having the incorrect GXT file. To fix this, copy all the gxt files from the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\TEXT folder except the "american.gxt" into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\MTA folder. You should also ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
=== Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server. ===<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTAMA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTAMA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow '''Aeron''''s instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to '''Mike''' for discovering the cause of this problem and '''Aeron''' for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

MTA 0.5r2 Known Issues
2011-02-02T06:32:18Z
<p>Towncivilian: Undo revision 25318 by Towncivilian (talk)</p>
<hr />
<div>__NOTOC__<br />
<br />
This applies to MTA 0.5r2 (both GTA3:MTA and MTA:VC). The known issues for MTA:SA 1.x can be found [[Known_Issues_-_FAQ | here]].<br />
<br />
== Client issues: ==<br />
*'''Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game.'''<br />
As Australian and German EXEs don't work reliably with MTA, this shouldn't be a huge problem. Try to obtain a standard EXE. You can try [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 '''Talidan''''s invalid executable patcher].<br />
*'''Crash when MTA:VC DM is loading.'''<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in single player without MTA before actually running it with MTA. If that doesn't work, try [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip the Vice 1.1 patch]. If that still doesn't work, post in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewforum.php?f=50 the support forum].<br />
*'''Freeze when the client tries to display dialog asking for game path.'''<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</pre><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</pre><br />
*'''XFire crashes game during loading.'''<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
*'''MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage."'''<br />
Try closing every other open window first, then if that doesn't work restart MTA. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5r2.<br />
*'''You join a server and are told you are banned, even though you aren't in the ban list.'''<br />
The cause of this is unknown. You may be banned by a over-general ban in the server's ban list.<br />
*'''Client crashes when you join a server.'''<br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash.<br />
*'''You have quite a few files on your computer called mtachat.txt.'''<br />
mtachat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
*'''Upon clicking "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified.'''<br />
Click '''Start Game''' again.<br />
*'''When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error.'''<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try '''Talidan''''s [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
*'''Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5r2 executable is a virus or malware.'''<br />
MTA does <u>not</u> contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. It is flagged as a false positive because of the way the executable is packed. Ensure you only download the client from our site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5r2/mta05r2_full_installer.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
*'''You get a crash at the address 652F30 when starting the game.'''<br />
Ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
== Gameplay issues: ==<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map) crashes when you try to get on a motorcycle as passenger when it has no driver, as well as a couple other crashes in certain circumstances with motorcycles'''<br />
Sorry, I was unable to fix this for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''MTA:VC DM: You are unable to jump or sprint when a Molotov is your active weapon, but you are able to jump and sprint with Grenades'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map): after exiting spectator mode, you may see a brief glimpse of Tommy falling and potentially receiving fall damage; once you spawn with a skin, you have less than 100 health'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''GTA3:MTA, Turismo/Shoreside Scramble gamemode: During a race, if another racer dies, every living racer crashes.'''<br />
I was also unable to fix this issue for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''GTA3:SSV, Van Heist gamemode: The home base marker flickers, and if the Securicar explodes, then the damage meter shows negative'''<br />
Live with it, neither were worth my time to fix for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
== Server issues: ==<br />
*'''You receive the error "ERROR: The ServerName, ServerPort, GameMap, GameHour, GameMins, Weather and BannedFile MUST be specified in the configuration file" when you run your server, and all fields are filled in. ''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix'''''<br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error.<br />
*'''Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server.'''<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTA:mA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTA:mA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow '''Aeron''''s instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to '''Mike''' for discovering the cause of this problem and '''Aeron''' for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

GTA3 SSV
2011-02-02T06:30:22Z
<p>Towncivilian: Added original Speed screenshot and fixed a couple descriptions.</p>
<hr />
<div>==Introduction==<br />
The Shoreside Vale island is a new addition to GTA3:MTA, added in version 0.5. Shoreside Vale has two things different from the other GTA3:MTA islands: the character selection screen, and jumping height is increased. When you jump, you go farther and higher than you normally would. This was implemented to dodge car-killers.<br />
<br />
==Characters==<br />
<center><table width="100%"><tr><td><br />
;Yakuza:<br />
:Model: Kenji Kasen<br />
:Spawn location: Pike Creek<br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_YakuzaSpawn.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Columbians:<br />
:Model: Miguel<br />
:Spawn location: Cedar Grove<br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_ColumbianSpawn.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
;Southside Hoods:<br />
:Model: 8-Ball<br />
:Spawn location: Witchita Gardens<br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_HoodSpawn.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td><br />

;Cops:<br />
:Model: Pedestrian Cop<br />
:Spawn location: Pike Creek<br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_CopSpawn.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td></tr></table></center><br />
<br />
==Weapons==<br />
You can also choose from a range of different weapons before spawning.<br />
<br />
<table><tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_Uzi.png]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
An Uzi is selected by default in the character selction menu. This is a good all-around weapon.<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_Flame.png]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
The Flamethrower is a popular choice, although flamethrowing players are often unpopular with other players. This is more suited to close-range combat. Some will even ban people who use the flamethrower to kill.<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_AK47.png]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
The AK-47 is suitable for long-range combat. <br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_Shotgun.png]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
The most common choice is the Shotgun. Shotgun duels are frequent, and take advantage of "shotgun jumping." This is when you shoot the opponent, jump over to the opponent, then shoot him while he's on the ground. This normally results in an instant kill.<br />
</td></tr></table><br />
<br />
==Mini-games==<br />
Within the five different [[Ammunation]] locations, you can choose to take a taxi for $50 to the Game Mode selection screen. The game modes are:<br />
<br />
<table><tr><td><br />
[[Image:Mta05 speed.JPG|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Speed <br />
:There is a bus parked outside Francis International Airport. Get in it. Once you hit 50MPH, the timer starts. You must maintain a speed of at least 50MPH, otherwise the bus will explode. Other players will try to make you blow up before reaching your target.<br />
:Reward: $3000<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_VanHeist.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Van Heist<br />
:Very similar to the mission ("[http://gta.wikia.com/Van_Heist Van Heist]") given to you by Joey Leone in single player GTAIII. You must jack a '''Securicar''' from the airport and bring it to a selected location. <br />
:Reward: $5000<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_GTA.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Grand Theft Auto<br />
:Steal a car from a rival gang leader and bring it to your base. Cops do not participate in this gamemode.<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:GTA3_SSV_Ransack.jpg|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Ransack<br />
:A warehouse was once used as a firearms storage. Collect the firearms before time runs out!<br />
</td></tr><br />
<tr><td><br />
[[Image:SSV_Scramble.png|220px]]<br />
</td><br />
<td><br />
;Shoreside Scramble<br />
:A race around Shoreside Vale with up to three other players. Similar to the "Turismo" game mode on the other two islands.<br />

Known Issues - FAQ

<p>Towncivilian: Changed link for 0.5 Known Issues to 0.5r2 Known Issues.</p>
<hr />
<div>Post here your proposed Q&A, regarding the known problems with MTA:SA and their solutions, especially the problems we are encountering now, that might be also encountered by users in the final release. You're also welcome to edit them grammar/style wise.<br />
<br />
[[Resource:Editor#FAQ|Map editor FAQ/known issues can be found here.]]<br><br />
[[MTA 0.5r2 Known Issues|Known issues for MTA 0.5r2 can be found here.]]<br />
<br />
<br />
== Client ==<br />
<br />
=== General ===<br />
==== I have the Steam version of GTA San Andreas. How can I play MTASA? ====<br />
The Steam version of GTASA is currently incompatible with MTASA. However, by following a few simple steps, the Steam version can be made to work:<br />
* Find a '''GTA SA 1.00 No CD''' (Google will give useful results). You should obtain a 1.00 Cracked/NoCd EXE, not a Disc image. Any HOODLUM release will work fine.<br />
* Open the download with Winrar or other similar archive tools, and inside there should be a gta_sa.exe. Place this file inside your installation directory. This is normally '''C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\grand theft auto san andreas'''. No files need to be replaced during this process.<br />
<br />
This procedure will not affect your Steam version of GTASA, but will allow MTASA to boot alongside it.<br />
<br />
==== Does MTASA work with v1.01 or v2.00 of GTA San Andreas? ====<br />
No. It can be made to work with them however - please see [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?t=15151 this forum topic] for instructions on patching the exe.<br />
<br />
==== Initial black screen/hanging GTA splash screens ====<br />
* '''MTA shows a permanent black screen or hanging GTA splash screens.'''<br />
<br />
It may be necessary that during/after the logo splash screens in Grand Theft Auto you have to give some input in order to skip the videos correctly. Try to click your left-mouse button a few times, or tapping a few keys.<br />
<br />
* '''MTA shows a permanent black screen after the GTA splash screens (possibly with text in the bottom right corner).'''<br />
<br />
This can be related to a lack of support for DirectX or video card features, on your system, which are needed to run the dynamically rendered menu. This dynamic menu is enabled by default. You can disable it by opening your [[coreconfig.xml]] configuration file located in the ''GTA San Andreas\MTA'' directory, and changing the value of ''menu_options'' to ''248''.<br />
<br />
==== Halt after MTA splash screen ====<br />
* '''Nothing happens after the 'Stop playing with yourself' splash screen'''<br />
<br />
If you use nVidia GeForce, try turning off nView Desktop Manager before starting MTA.<br />
<br />
Also try deleting GTA San Andreas settings file ("gta_sa.set") in "Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files" folder.<br />
<br />
If it all fails and you run Kaspersky Anti-Virus or Internet Security, make sure status of "multi theft auto.exe" in not restricted. Other anti-virus software may block MTA from running.<br />
<br />
==== Crash after MTA splash screen ====<br />
* '''MTA crashes after the 'Stop playing with yourself' logo. Both single player and the MTA: Race ran fine before.'''<br />
<br />
Try downloading the latest DirectX Runtime files from [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&DisplayLang=en Microsoft]. Also check in Task Manager, if gta_sa.exe process isn't already running.<br />
<br />
If you run at any substandard resolutions (e.g. 960x720), try to change your resolution to a commonly supported one (e.g. 640×480, 800×600, 1024×768, 1152×864, 1280×1024) by launching Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in normal mode, setting the new resolution and exiting.<br />
<br />
If you are a user of Windows Vista or Windows 7, try the following:<br />
* Enable Windows XP SP3 compatiblity mode for both Multi Theft Auto.exe and gta_sa.exe, setting their privilege level to "Run this program as an administrator".<br />
* Configure Data Execution Prevention: Use the setting ''Turn DEP for all programs and services except those I select''. Click ''add'' and find "Multi Theft Auto.exe" and "gta_sa.exe" and add them.<br />
* Run MTASA as administrator.<br />
<br />
==== "Data files have been modified" ====<br />
* '''You receive an error stating "San Andreas data files have been modified"'''<br />
You can fix this by [http://mtasa.com/GTASA-data-1.0.4.exe installing this patch]. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling GTA San Andreas.<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
==== Assertion in CMainMenu.cpp line 106 upon launching MTASA ====<br />
* '''I'm getting an assertion in CMainMenu.cpp (line 106) after I have launched MTASA. I'm able to ignore it, but then game crashes after I try to connect to a server.''' <br />
<br />
This is likely caused by GTASA or MTA:SA being installed in a path that contains non-ASCII characters (eg. Cyrillic, Polish, Japanese) in it. <br />
<br />
To resolve this, you need to uninstall MTA:SA and GTASA, then install them in such paths that don't contain such characters.--><br />
<br />
==== Crash after connecting to any server ====<br />
* '''MTASA crashes upon connecting to any server. Single player runs fine.'''<br />
<br />
Single player mods can affect the way MTA:SA works, potentially causing crashes - you should always use a clean GTASA install for MTA:SA.<br />
<br />
This might also occur on non-modded installs, when your GTASA executable is in an unsupported by MTA:SA version (eg. 1.0 German or Australian). To resolve this, use [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=15151 our converter].<br />
<br />
==== Controls not working ====<br />
* '''My controls don't seem to work as they should.'''<br />
<br />
Try using the 'copygtacontrols' command in the console.<br />
<br />
==== Incorrect models ====<br />
* '''Woman model's breasts look awkward ingame / I'm seeing odd, spider-like shaped player models.'''<br />
<br />
This is caused by the way GTA handles player stats. To fix this, be sure to set both fat and muscles player stats to 0, when you're changing player skin.<br />
<br />
==== Incorrect drive-by functionality ====<br />
* '''Drivebys arent working as they should'''<br />
<br />
Drivebys are handled by script, and will change depending on the loaded gamemode.<br />
<br />
==== Unsaved settings ====<br />
* '''My MTA setting(s) didn't get saved (...) I crashed.'''<br />
<br />
First, configure the MTA the way you want to, then exit the game and launch it again. Settings should get saved. Alternatively, try removing the coreconfig.xml file, then configure it and quit the game.<br />
<br />
==== Gamepad support ====<br />
* '''MTA doesn't recognise my gamepad'''<br />
<br />
Ensure that your controller is the first controller recognised by Windows (MTA will only use the first controller). You can configure your gamepad in options in MTASA's main menu.<br />
<br />
==== Free mouselook not working properly ====<br />
* '''MTA doesnt recognise my mouse'''<br />
<br />
Some people got problems with their mouse in MTA. They can use it in the menu, connect to a server, but they can't use the mouse for free look.<br />
This problem can be solved by entering a server, click your Win/Windows key at your keyboard once, and then click your mouse.<br />
If that doesn't work try starting GTA in Singleplayer, go to options > controler setup and set "Configuration" to "Mouse + Keys" instead of "Joypad".<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Server browser not working ====<br />
* '''The in-game server browser shows "Loading" but does not come up with any servers'''<br />
<br />
Depending on the type and status of the internet connection you are using, it can take up to a few seconds for the server browser to retrieve all the servers. Please wait a little longer for the results to appear.<br />
<br />
If all else fails, you can logon to [http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?game=mta GameMonitor], and click the green play icon to play on that server.<br />
<br />
==== Invalid serial number ====<br />
* '''I am getting an 'Invalid serial number' error when trying to launch or play the game'''<br />
<br />
You are running an outdated version of Multi Theft Auto. Head over to the [http://mtasa.com/ main page] and download the latest version of Multi Theft Auto.<br />
<br />
==== 'Network module not compatible!' on MTA:SA launch ====<br />
* '''I am getting 'Network module not compatible!' error message upon launching MTA:SA<br />
<br />
This could mean that your MTA:SA install is incomplete or broken. Reinstall it.<br />
<br />
==== 'No such mod installed (deathmatch)' ====<br />
* '''I am getting a 'No such mod installed (deathmatch)' error message when trying to connect to any server<br />
<br />
'''Option 1:''' Simply re-install MTA. <br><br />
'''Option 2:''' Run both gta_sa.exe and Multi Theft Auto.exe with administrator privileges.<br />
<br />
==== D3dx9_**.dll is not found ====<br />
* '''When I start Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas I am getting an error D3dx9_**.dll (** = a number) cannot be found.<br />
<br />
This means that DirectX 9 is not installed or not up to date.<br />
To install/update DirectX download the [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3 DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer] from the Microsoft download site.<br />
<br />
==== CRC mismatch ====<br />
* '''When joining a server, the chatbox shows 'CRC mismatch'<br />
This is a server problem. Tell the owner to look at the server section of this page.<br />
<br />
=== Windows Vista®-related ===<br />
<br />
==== Crash on connect ====<br />
* '''I seem to crash whenever I connect to a server just before I go in-game on Vista'''<br />
<br />
This seems to be an issue with the Microsoft DirectX April 2006 SDK Redistributable DLL file (d3dx9_30.dll) when running in compatibility mode. Please make sure that compatibility mode is competely turned off for '''both''' your GTA_SA.exe and Multi Theft Auto.exe executables.<br />
<br />
==== Clock manipulation error ====<br />
* '''I am getting 'Clock manipulation detected!' error message upon launching MTA:SA<br />
<br />
This is caused by incorrect system date/time being set (which could be a result of wrong settings or a faulty battery on the pc's motherboard). Setting time and date again should fix the problem.<br />
<br />
It might also happen if you are using an AMD Athlon 64 X2 processor with some old drivers. Update them at [http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/drivers.aspx AMD's site].<br />
<br />
==== Halt on launch ====<br />
* '''When I launch MTA:SA, nothing happens (GTA_SA.exe is running but not loading up)<br />
<br />
Run MTA:SA with Administrator privileges. To do this, right click on the installer executable, choose 'Properties', go into 'Compatibility' tab and tick the check box on the last field and try again.<br />
<br />
==== General GTA problems ====<br />
* '''I have unexplainable GTA problems or crashes'''<br />
<br />
Make sure your computer as well as your GTA install meet the [[Deathmatch_Client_Manual#System_requirements|minimum requirements]] and that you are not running in any 98/2000/XP/2003 compatibility modes.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Server ==<br />
<br />
=== General ===<br />
==== Fatal error 3 ====<br />
* '''I'm getting ''Fatal Error 3'' whenever I connect to my server'''<br />
<br />
This error happens when the server you are trying to connect to is unable to provide you the required downloads, because it does not have http downloading enabled. Be sure to set the '''httpdownload''' configuration tag in your configuration to '''1'''.<br />
==== Download error 9: Error downloading requested files ====<br />
* '''I'm getting ''Download Error 9: Error downloading requested files'' whenever I connect to my server'''<br />
<br />
This error happens when the server you are trying to connect to is unable to provide you with a valid link. This results in a 404 (Not found) HTTP error and an error at your end.<br />
<br />
* If you are running the built-in server ('''httpserver''' is set to '''1''' and '''httpdownloadurl''' is empty), make sure that your HTTP server is accessible (you can try to access it by using a browser) for everyone.<br />
<br />
* If you have configured an external web server ('''httpdownloadurl''' is set to your custom URL), make sure that your HTTP is accessible and make sure you have read the [[Deathmatch_Server_Manual#Configuring_an_external_web_server | Configuring an external web server]] guide.<br />
<br />
==== CRC mismatch ====<br />
* '''When clients join my server, their chatbox shows 'CRC mismatch'<br />
CRC mismatch occurs when either:<br />
* The server files have been changed, but the resource has not been restarted/refreshed<br />
* An external http server is being used and the files are not synchronized<br />
<br />
==== Accounts missing ====<br />
The file ''accounts.xml'' is not used in 1.0.4, it has been replaced by a file called ''internal.db''. To ensure your old accounts information is migrated:<br />
*Stop the server<br />
*Make sure your old ''accounts.xml'' is correct<br />
*Delete ''internal.db''<br />
*Start the server<br />
<br />
==== Resources missing ====<br />
From 1.0.4, resource names cannot contain dots.<br />
<br />
==== Download error 28 ====<br />
Try closing anti-virus or firewall applications. If it then works, try adding an exception to your firewall to allow your http port through.<br />
<br />
=== Windows-related ===<br />
No known reported issues in the version {{Current Version|full}}.<br />
<br />
=== Linux-related ===<br />
====Default nohup creates infinitely big nohup.out====<br />
<br />
Temporary fix, disable the nohup file: 'nohup ./mta_server > /dev/null &'<br />

MTA 0.5r2 Known Issues
2011-02-02T06:23:49Z
<p>Towncivilian: Page created.</p>
<hr />
<div>__NOTOC__<br />
<br />
This applies to MTA 0.5r2 (both GTA3:MTA and MTA:VC). The known issues for MTA:SA 1.x can be found [[Known_Issues_-_FAQ | here]].<br />
<br />
== Client issues: ==<br />
*'''Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game.'''<br />
As Australian and German EXEs don't work reliably with MTA, this shouldn't be a huge problem. Try to obtain a standard EXE. You can try [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 '''Talidan''''s invalid executable patcher].<br />
*'''Crash when MTA:VC DM is loading.'''<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in single player without MTA before actually running it with MTA. If that doesn't work, try [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip the Vice 1.1 patch]. If that still doesn't work, post in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewforum.php?f=50 the support forum].<br />
*'''Freeze when the client tries to display dialog asking for game path.'''<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</pre><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<br />
<pre>[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</pre><br />
*'''XFire crashes game during loading.'''<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
*'''MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage."'''<br />
Try closing every other open window first, then if that doesn't work restart MTA. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5r2.<br />
*'''You join a server and are told you are banned, even though you aren't in the ban list.'''<br />
The cause of this is unknown. You may be banned by a over-general ban in the server's ban list.<br />
*'''Client crashes when you join a server.'''<br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash.<br />
*'''You have quite a few files on your computer called mtachat.txt.'''<br />
mtachat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
*'''Upon clicking "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified.'''<br />
Click '''Start Game''' again.<br />
*'''When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error.'''<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try '''Talidan''''s [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
*'''Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5r2 executable is a virus or malware.'''<br />
MTA does <u>not</u> contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. It is flagged as a false positive because of the way the executable is packed. Ensure you only download the client from our site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5r2/mta05r2_full_installer.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
*'''You get a crash at the address 652F30 when starting the game.'''<br />
Ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
== Gameplay issues: ==<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map) crashes when you try to get on a motorcycle as passenger when it has no driver, as well as a couple other crashes in certain circumstances with motorcycles'''<br />
Sorry, I was unable to fix this for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''MTA:VC DM: You are unable to jump or sprint when a Molotov is your active weapon, but you are able to jump and sprint with Grenades'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''MTA:VC (either map): after exiting spectator mode, you may see a brief glimpse of Tommy falling and potentially receiving fall damage; once you spawn with a skin, you have less than 100 health'''<br />
This will be fixed in a future release if there is one.<br />
*'''GTA3:MTA, Turismo/Shoreside Scramble gamemode: During a race, if another racer dies, every living racer crashes.'''<br />
I was also unable to fix this issue for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
*'''GTA3:SSV, Van Heist gamemode: The home base marker flickers, and if the Securicar explodes, then the damage meter shows negative'''<br />
Live with it, neither were worth my time to fix for 0.5r2. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
== Server issues: ==<br />
*'''You receive the error "ERROR: The ServerName, ServerPort, GameMap, GameHour, GameMins, Weather and BannedFile MUST be specified in the configuration file" when you run your server, and all fields are filled in. ''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix'''''<br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error.<br />
*'''Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server.'''<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTA:mA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTA:mA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow '''Aeron''''s instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to '''Mike''' for discovering the cause of this problem and '''Aeron''' for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

Server Manual

<p>Towncivilian: </p>
<hr />
<div>__TOC__<br />
<br />
==Getting started==<br />
It is much easier than it looks to get a server up and running for your internet or LAN buddies; follow this wiki article and you will hopefully be on your way to hosting your own MTA:SA server in no time!<br />
<br />
==Installing the server==<br />
The dedicated server application is available in different flavours depending on the platform of the server.<br />
<br />
===Linux installation===<br />
There are different ways of getting a Linux server up and running:<br />
* [[Building MTASA Server on GNU Linux]]<br />
* [http://linux.mtasa.com Getting a precompiled package]<br />
<br />
===Windows installation===<br />
Installation of the MTA:SA server on Windows is easy as pie.<br />
*Go to the [http://mtasa.com/ download page] and download the installer.<br />
*Once the installer is downloaded, open it.<br />
*Select a folder where you want to install the server.<br />
*Click Install.<br />
*Done!<br />
<br />
''For a full explanation of acl.xml (access control list) read: [[Access_Control_List|Access Control List]]''<br/><br/><br />
<br />
==Configuring your server==<br />
The Multi Theft Auto dedicated server is initially configurable through it's console window, from within the game, and from a webbrowser. In order to make use of the two last options, it is necessary to add at least one administrator user to your configuration file.<br />
<br />
===General configuration===<br />
All general configuration options can be found in the 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf'''' file and can be opened by any regular text editor.<br />
<br />
This file is fairly straightforward; every variable has a description of what to do with it and how to change it.<br />
<br />
===Port forwarding===<br />
If you run your server on your own private computer, and you have an router between the internet and your computer. You need to forward 3 ports.<br />
<br />
First of all open the file 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf'''' and search for the next lines:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<serverport>22004</serverport> <br />
<httpport>22005</httpport><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
The ports are needed to setup the server correctly. We explain later how to set them, but first if you want your server to appear in the server browser there is another port we need, and that is the ASE port. <br />
(quick example for how to turn ASE on or off):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<ase>1</ase> <!-- 0 = off, 1 = on --><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Now we going to forward the ports in your router, which is not needed if you already have all ports open, or if you don't have a router with a firewall. If so, skip this part.<br />
<br />
If you don't know how port forwarding works in your router, go to the [http://portforward.com/ Port Forward website], find your router model there, and follow the instructions there.<br />
<br />
In almost every router you can set the port type: UDP or TCP. The following list will explain which port type is needed for what:<br />
<br />
<br />
Main server port: UDP<br />
<br />
HTTP Port: TCP<br />
<br />
ASE Port: UDP (this is needed if you want your server to appear in the server list)<br />
<br />
<br />
The ASE port is also simple to get:<br />
<br />
ASE port = Main server port + 123<br />
<br />
So, if you have the main server port set to 22003, then the ASE port will be 22126.<br />
<br />
Good luck!<br />
<br />
''In the latest version of the server, you can check the port status by using the server command ''''openports''''.''<br />
<br />
===Client Checks===<br />
<br />
The MTA server can be configured to disable the anti-cheat. It can also allow specific or all files to be modified (e.g. handling.cfg), and make sure clients are of a minimum version.<br />
<br />
All of these settings are within the file 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf''''.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to turn off the anti-cheat, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<disableac></disableac></syntaxhighlight><br />
MTA has multiple, different anti-cheats which can be disabled, and as such the disableac setting is a comma separated setting. To disable anti-cheat #2, use: 2. To disable #2 and #3, use: 2,3.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to force a minimum client version, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<minclientversion></minclientversion><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
Accepted values look like: 1.0.4-9.01746.0. Paired together with verifyclientsettings, a value of 1.0.3-9.00000.0 will make sure that clients are new enough for the file check.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to specify which modified files are disallowed, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<verifyclientsettings>-1</verifyclientsettings></syntaxhighlight><br />
The value of this setting can be -1 (default), 0 (off), or the addition of the file flags in the table below. (e.g. to block just melee.dat and weapons.dat, you would add 16 and 1048576)<br />
<br />
{| class="TablePager" style="min-width: 0%;"<br />
|-<br />
!Flag<br />
!Description<br />
|-<br />
|1<br />
|Verify "data/carmods.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|4<br />
|Verify "data/handling.cfg"<br />
|-<br />
|16<br />
|Verify "data/melee.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|64<br />
|Verify "data/object.dat"<br />
|-<br />

|262144<br />
|Verify "data/water1.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|1048576<br />
|Verify "data/weapon.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|4194304<br />
|Verify "anim/ped.ifp" & check above filenames (1.0.4 and above)<br />
|}<br />
<br />
===Adding administrators===<br />
It is strongly recommended to add at least one administrator to your server in order to make use of the built-in webserver to easily maintain and configure your server. This administrator will then also be able to log-in from within the game and control the server.<br />
<br />
To add an administrator to your server, follow these steps:<br><br />
<ol><br />
<li>While the server is running, add a new account by typing '''addaccount name password''' into the server window. For example, to add user BennyLava you could type:<br />
<div style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
addaccount BennyLava 123password<br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
<div style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 20px;"><br />
''Note: If you do not have access to the server window, and the 'admin' resource is running, you can add the example account by issuing the chatbox command '''/register BennyLava 123password'''''<br />
</div><br />
<li>The server should display a message confirming the account has been added.<br />
<li>Next, shutdown the server by typing '''shutdown''' into the server window.<br />
<li>Make sure your server is stopped; if your server is still running, the following changes you make will be overwritten</li><br />
<li>Open the file 'mods/deathmatch/'acl.xml'''' with any text editor</li><br />
<li>Add the account to the ''Admin'' group by using the XML-syntax below<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<ACL><br />
...<br />
<group name="Admin"><br />
<acl name="Admin"/><br />
...<br />
<object name="user.BennyLava" /><br />
</group><br />
...<br />
</ACL><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
<br />
You can actually add your user to any group you want. Each group is linked to an ACL ([[Access Control List]]). Each ACL contains a series of specific allowed or denied rights. These groups exist so different users can be assigned different rights. The ''Admin'' group points to the ''Admin'' ACL, which is empty (thus allowing all possible commands). The ''Everyone'' group points to the ''Default'' ACL that puts a series of restrictions on the available commands (to disallow regular players from using admin commands).<br />
</li><br />
<li><br />
You're done! You can add as many administrators or users as you want this way, take a look at some of the other groups and ACLs for example. The ACL is also accessible through the [[Access_Control_List|Lua scripting engine]].<br><br />
<br />
It is recommended to take a look at the web interface, we will explain how to do this below.<br />
</li><br />
</ol><br />
'''Note''': There are also ways to add accounts and edit rights for the server while it's running. "addaccount <user> <password>" is an internal command to add accounts, but you will have to use the web interface to add these accounts to specific groups/ACLs!<br /><br />
<br />
===Using the web interface===<br />
The dedicated server comes with a few Lua [[resources]] that provide a nice little web interface to your server. This can be used to easily maintain your server, as it allows you to add users, start/stop resources, and more.<br />
<br />
The web interface resources are enabled by default and are served through the built-in HTTP web server. To make sure the built-in HTTP web server runs on a port you like (22005 by default), follow these steps:<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Make sure your server is stopped<br />
<li>Open the file '''mods/deathmatch/mtaserver.conf''' with any text editor</li><br />
<li>Verify that the HTTP server is enabled:<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<httpserver>1</httpserver><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
</li><br />
<li>Change the HTTP server port to your liking:<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<httpport>22005</httpport><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
</li><br />
<li>Save and close the configuration file</li><br />
<li>Start your server</li><br />
<li>If you happened to have changed the start-up resources in your configuration file, make sure the following resources are started:<br />
<br />
# resourcebrowser<br />
# resourcemanager<br />
# webadmin<br />
# webmap<br />
<br />
These are automatically started in the default configuration file, in case you just installed your server.<br />
</li><br />
<li>Open a web browser (Internet Explorer 6 or 7 are NOT supported; use [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox Mozilla Firefox], [http://www.google.com/chrome Google Chrome], [http://www.apple.com/safari/download Apple Safari], [http://www.opera.com Opera] or others) and navigate to the HTTP server URL: '''http://server:port/'''. For example, If you are running a local server on HTTP port 22005, use '''http://127.0.0.1:22005/'''.</li><br />
<li>Enter the username and password of the administrator you added in the previous section.</li><br />
</ol><br />
<br />
<br /><br />
You should now be able to maintain your server from the web interface.<br />
<br />
=== Configuring an external web server ===<br />
The built-in web server is also used to serve files that are required by resources running on your server to any player that is connected to your server. For example, if you are running a game script with a scripted graphical user interface, or custom models, these need to be transferred to every connected player in order to function properly. This is done by either the built-in web server, or an external web server (that is usually a bit faster) but needs to be set up separately.<br />
<br />
For performance or consistency reasons during the game, you could choose to make use of such an external web server if you have one set up. The external web server needs to be accessible for the public, so any client will be able to download the necessary client-side files in order to join and play on your server.<br />
<br />
To enable downloading off an external web server, you should configure the ''httpdownload'' and ''httpdownloadurl'' tags in your server configuration:<br />
<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><httpdownload>1</httpdownload> <br />
<httpdownloadurl>http://www.myserver.tld/directory/here</httpdownloadurl><br />
</syntaxhighlight></div><br />
<br />
Since all the default resources provided with the dedicated server are zipped, and are normally automatically extracted by the built-in web server, you now have to provide a way for the clients to download the compressed files to their computers. To configure MTA to maintain a copy of only your unzipped client resources, set ''httpautoclientfiles'' in your server configuration: <br />
<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><httpautoclientfiles>1</httpautoclientfiles><br />
</syntaxhighlight></div><br />
<br />
Now when you launch the server, the directory '''<SERVER>/mods/deathmatch/resource-cache/http-client-files''' will contain the correct client files for hosting on an external web server. If the web server is on the same machine, you can simply link the appropriate web server directory to '''http-client-files'''. If the web server is on a separate machine, ensure it has access to '''http-client-files''' via a network path, or maintain a remote copy using synchronization software.<br />
<br />
'''Note 1''': Please try to avoid any special characters (e.g. ~, !) in your download URLs.<br /><br />
'''Note 2''': Please do not use a trailing slash in your download URL (e.g. ''hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory'' rather than ''hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory/'')<br />
<br />
==Starting your server==<br />
Begin by making sure that you have finished all configuration of your server, starting your server is the last stage so everything must be ready!<br />
<br />
To start your server double click on MTA Server.exe, make sure you allow it through any firewalls and forward ports where necessary.<br />
<br />
==Installing/Updating resources on your server==<br />
Resources can come in two formats, either a ZIP format or just a normal folder with the script files inside it. The MTA:SA server supports both these methods.<br />
<br />
# Move or copy the new resource to your <SERVER>\mods\deathmatch\resources folder.<br />
# In the server window type in the command "refresh" (without the quotes), this will re-scan the resources folder and update the live resources where necessary.<br />
<br />
==Uninstalling resources==<br />
Resources can easily be removed from your server if you no longer want them.<br />
<br />
# Delete the ZIP file or the folder of the resource you wish to uninstall<br />
# In the server window type in the command "refresh" (without the quotes), this will re-scan the resources folder and update the live resources where necessary.<br />
<br />
==Administrating your server==<br />
You can start resources by typing the command "start resourcename" in the server console, or stop ones with "stop resourcename".<br />
<br />
It's also possible to execute these and other admin commands from the in-game console (which you can bring up with the ` key or F8); for this to work, you first need to log in with the command "login username password". Additionally, you can press the p key to bring up the admin panel: this is a graphical interface which allows you to easily kick or ban misbehaving players, among others.<br />
<br />
For further commands, type "help" in a console.<br />
<br />
==Starting a map/gamemode==<br />
See the commands section of the documentation for [[Resource:Map manager|mapmanager]] for more information.<br />
<br />
==Useful Notes==<br />
<br />
# You may also update the resources while in-game as long as you have the correct access levels by typing "refresh" in the clients console or "/refresh" in the chat window. This may cause a second of lag if you have many resources.<br />
# In the above instructions, <SERVER> is the path to your server's main directory. In most cases this is C:\Program Files\MTA San Andreas\server<br />
# You can choose a different config file for the server to use by passing it in the command line after a --config argument, e.g. mtaserver.exe --config anotherconfig.cfg.<br />
# Do not be alarmed by the warning regarding the parsing of the settings.xml file. This happens because your server installation is still clean and unused.<br />

<p>Towncivilian: Fixed a few typos and replaced some words for clarity.</p>

<div>__TOC__<br />
<br />
==Getting started==<br />
It is much easier than it looks to get a server up and running for your internet or LAN buddies: follow this wiki article and you will hopefully be on your way to hosting your own MTA:SA Server in no time!<br />
<br />
==Installing the server==<br />
The dedicated server application is available in different flavours depending on the platform of the server.<br />
<br />
===Linux installation===<br />
There are different ways of getting a Linux server up and running:<br />
* [[Building MTASA Server on GNU Linux]]<br />
* [http://linux.mtasa.com Getting a precompiled package]<br />
<br />
===Windows installation===<br />
Installation of the MTA:SA server on Windows is easy as pie.<br />
*Go to the [http://mtasa.com/ download page] and download the installer.<br />
*Once the installer is downloaded, open it.<br />
*Select a folder where you want to install the server.<br />
*Click Install.<br />
*Done!<br />
<br />
''For a full explanation of acl.xml (access control list) read: [[Access_Control_List|Access Control List]]''<br/><br/><br />
<br />
==Configuring your server==<br />
The Multi Theft Auto dedicated server is initially configurable through it's console window, from within the game, and from a webbrowser. In order to make use of the two last options, it is necessary to add at least one administrator user to your configuration file.<br />
<br />
===General configuration===<br />
All general configuration options can be found in the 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf'''' file and can be opened by any regular text editor.<br />
<br />
This file is fairly straightforward; every variable has a description of what to do with it and how to change it.<br />
<br />
===Port forwarding===<br />
If you run your server on your own private computer, and you have an router between the internet and your computer. You need to forward 3 ports.<br />
<br />
First of all open the file 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf'''' and search for the next lines:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<serverport>22004</serverport> <br />
<httpport>22005</httpport><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
The ports are needed to setup the server correctly. We explain later how to set them, but first if you want your server to appear in the server browser there is another port we need, and that is the ASE port. <br />
(quick example for how to turn ASE on or off):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<ase>1</ase> <!-- 0 = off, 1 = on --><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Now we going to forward the ports in your router, which is not needed if you already have all ports open, or if you don't have a router with a firewall. If so, skip this part.<br />
<br />
If you don't know how port forwarding works in your router, go to the [http://portforward.com/ Port Forward website], find your router model there, and follow the instructions there.<br />
<br />
In almost every router you can set the port type: UDP or TCP. The following list will explain which port type is needed for what:<br />
<br />
<br />
Main server port: UDP<br />
<br />
HTTP Port: TCP<br />
<br />
ASE Port: UDP (this is needed if you want your server to appear in the server list)<br />
<br />
<br />
The ASE port is also simple to get:<br />
<br />
ASE port = Main server port + 123<br />
<br />
So, if you have the main server port set to 22003, then the ASE port will be 22126.<br />
<br />
Good luck!<br />
<br />
''In the latest version of the server, you can check the port status by using the server command ''''openports''''.''<br />
<br />
===Client Checks===<br />
<br />
The MTA server can be configured to disable the anti-cheat. It can also allow specific or all files to be modified (e.g. handling.cfg), and make sure clients are of a minimum version.<br />
<br />
All of these settings are within the file 'mods/deathmatch/'''mtaserver.conf''''.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to turn off the anti-cheat, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<disableac></disableac></syntaxhighlight><br />
MTA has multiple, different anti-cheats which can be disabled, and as such the disableac setting is a comma separated setting. To disable anti-cheat #2, use: 2. To disable #2 and #3, use: 2,3.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to force a minimum client version, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<minclientversion></minclientversion><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
Accepted values look like: 1.0.4-9.01746.0. Paired together with verifyclientsettings, a value of 1.0.3-9.00000.0 will make sure that clients are new enough for the file check.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you want to specify which modified files are disallowed, search for the following line:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<verifyclientsettings>-1</verifyclientsettings></syntaxhighlight><br />
The value of this setting can be -1 (default), 0 (off), or the addition of the file flags in the table below. (e.g. to block just melee.dat and weapons.dat, you would add 16 and 1048576)<br />
<br />
{| class="TablePager" style="min-width: 0%;"<br />
|-<br />
!Flag<br />
!Description<br />
|-<br />
|1<br />
|Verify "data/carmods.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|4<br />
|Verify "data/handling.cfg"<br />
|-<br />
|16<br />
|Verify "data/melee.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|64<br />
|Verify "data/object.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|256<br />
|Verify "data/surface.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|1024<br />
|Verify "data/surfaud.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|4096<br />
|Verify "data/surfinfo.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|16384<br />
|Verify "data/vehicles.ide"<br />
|-<br />
|65536<br />
|Verify "data/water.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|262144<br />
|Verify "data/water1.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|1048576<br />
|Verify "data/weapon.dat"<br />
|-<br />
|4194304<br />
|Verify "anim/ped.ifp" & check above filenames (1.0.4 and above)<br />
|}<br />
<br />
===Adding administrators===<br />
It is strongly recommended to add at least one administrator to your server in order to make use of the built-in webserver to easily maintain and configure your server. This administrator will then also be able to log-in from within the game and control the server.<br />
<br />
To add an administrator to your server, follow these steps:<br><br />
<ol><br />
<li>While the server is running, add a new account by typing '''addaccount name password''' into the server window. For example, to add user BennyLava you could type:<br />
<div style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
addaccount BennyLava 123password<br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
<div style="margin: 10px 10px 10px 20px;"><br />
''Note: If you do not have access to the server window, and the 'admin' resource is running, you can add the example account by issuing the chatbox command '''/register BennyLava 123password'''''<br />
</div><br />
<li>The server should display a message confirming the account has been added.<br />
<li>Next, shutdown the server by typing '''shutdown''' into the server window.<br />
<li>Make sure your server is stopped; if your server is still running, the following changes you make will be overwritten</li><br />
<li>Open the file 'mods/deathmatch/'acl.xml'''' with any text editor</li><br />
<li>Add the account to the ''Admin'' group by using the XML-syntax below<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<ACL><br />
...<br />
<group name="Admin"><br />
<acl name="Admin"/><br />
...<br />
<object name="user.BennyLava" /><br />
</group><br />
...<br />
</ACL><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
<br />
You can actually add your user to any group you want. Each group is linked to an ACL ([[Access Control List]]). Each ACL contains a series of specific allowed or denied rights. These groups exist so different users can be assigned different rights. The ''Admin'' group points to the ''Admin'' ACL, which is empty (thus allowing all possible commands). The ''Everyone'' group points to the ''Default'' ACL that puts a series of restrictions on the available commands (to disallow regular players from using admin commands).<br />
</li><br />
<li><br />
You're done! You can add as many administrators or users as you want this way, take a look at some of the other groups and ACLs for example. The ACL is also accessible through the [[Access_Control_List|Lua scripting engine]].<br><br />
<br />
It is recommended to take a look at the web interface, we will explain how to do this below.<br />
</li><br />
</ol><br />
'''Note''': There are also ways to add accounts and edit rights for the server while it's running. "addaccount <user> <password>" is an internal command to add accounts, but you will have to use the web interface to add these accounts to specific groups/ACLs!<br /><br />
<br />
===Using the web interface===<br />
The dedicated server comes with a few Lua [[resources]] that provide a nice little web interface to your server. This can be used to easily maintain your server, as it allows you to add users, start/stop resources, and more.<br />
<br />
The web interface resources are enabled by default and are served through the built-in HTTP web server. To make sure the built-in HTTP web server runs on a port you like (22005 by default), follow these steps:<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Make sure your server is stopped<br />
<li>Open the file '''mods/deathmatch/mtaserver.conf''' with any text editor</li><br />
<li>Verify that the HTTP server is enabled:<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<httpserver>1</httpserver><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
</li><br />
<li>Change the HTTP server port to your liking:<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<httpport>22005</httpport><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
</div><br />
</li><br />
<li>Save and close the configuration file</li><br />
<li>Start your server</li><br />
<li>If you happened to have changed the start-up resources in your configuration file, make sure the following resources are started:<br />
<br />
# resourcebrowser<br />
# resourcemanager<br />
# webadmin<br />
# webmap<br />
<br />
These are automatically started in the default configuration file, in case you just installed your server.<br />
</li><br />
<li>Open a web browser (Internet Explorer 6 or 7 are NOT supported; use [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox Mozilla Firefox], [http://www.google.com/chrome Google Chrome], [http://www.apple.com/safari/download Apple Safari], [http://www.opera.com Opera] or others) and navigate to the HTTP server URL: '''http://server:port/'''. For example, If you are running a local server on HTTP port 22005, use '''http://127.0.0.1:22005/'''.</li><br />
<li>Enter the username and password of the administrator you added in the previous section.</li><br />
</ol><br />
<br />
<br /><br />
You should now be able to maintain your server from the web interface.<br />
<br />
=== Configuring an external web server ===<br />
The built-in web server is also used to serve files that are required by resources running on your server to any player that is connected to your server. For example, if you are running a game script with a scripted graphical user interface, or custom models, these need to be transferred to every connected player in order to function properly. This is done by either the built-in web server, or an external web server (that is usually a bit faster) but needs to be set up separately.<br />
<br />
For performance or consistency reasons during the game, you could choose to make use of such an external web server if you have one set up. The external web server needs to be accessible for the public, so any client will be able to download the necessary client-side files in order to join and play on your server.<br />
<br />
To enable downloading off an external web server, you should configure the ''httpdownload'' and ''httpdownloadurl'' tags in your server configuration:<br />
<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><httpdownload>1</httpdownload> <br />
<httpdownloadurl>http://www.myserver.tld/directory/here</httpdownloadurl><br />
</syntaxhighlight></div><br />
<br />
Since all the default resources provided with the dedicated server are zipped, and are normally automatically extracted by the built-in web server, you now have to provide a way for the clients to download the compressed files to their computers. To configure MTA to maintain a copy of only your unzipped client resources, set ''httpautoclientfiles'' in your server configuration: <br />
<br />
<div style="padding: 10px"><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><httpautoclientfiles>1</httpautoclientfiles><br />
</syntaxhighlight></div><br />
<br />
Now when you launch the server, the directory '''<SERVER>/mods/deathmatch/resource-cache/http-client-files''' will contain the correct client files for hosting on an external web server. If the web server is on the same machine, you can simply link the appropriate web server directory to '''http-client-files'''. If the web server is on a separate machine, ensure it has access to '''http-client-files''' via a network path, or maintain a remote copy using synchronization software.<br />
<br />
'''Note 1''': Please try to avoid any special characters (e.g. ~, !) in your download URLs.<br /><br />
'''Note 2''': Please do not use a trailing slash in your download URL (e.g. ''hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory'' rather than ''hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory/'')<br />
<br />
==Starting your server==<br />

<br />
To start your server double click on MTA Server.exe, make sure you allow it through any firewalls and forward ports where necessary.<br />
<br />
==Installing/Updating resources on your server==<br />

<br />
# Delete the ZIP file or the folder of the resource you wish to uninstall<br />

MTA 0.5 Known Issues
2010-11-27T04:08:45Z
<p>Towncivilian: </p>
<hr />
<div>__NOTOC__<br />
<br />
This applies to MTA 0.5 (both GTA3:MTA and MTA:VC). The known issues for MTA:SA 1.x can be found [[Known_Issues_-_FAQ | here]].<br />
<br />
''Server operators: ensure you are running the [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=27645 MTAServer Patch 1 Hotfix]. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_server_win32_patch1_hotfix.zip Windows.] [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_server_linux_patch1_hotfix.tar.gz Linux]''<br />
<br />
=== In-game MOTDs appear as nonsense. ===<br />
We noticed this during testing but it wasn't fixed. This may be fixed in a future release. In the meantime, server admins can disable the MOTD by changing your mtaserver.conf and use the rich MOTD instead.<br />
<br />
=== Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game. ===<br />
As Australian and German EXEs don't work reliably with MTA, this shouldn't be a huge problem. Try to obtain a standard EXE. You can try Talidan's [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher].<br />
<br />
=== The in-game help marker says the game is MTA 0.4, when it clearly is MTA 0.5. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== Crash when MTA:VC DM is loading. ===<br />
We're not sure what causes this, but we know that about 60% of these crashes can be fixed by upgrading to Vice City 1.1. [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip Here's] the 1.1 patch download. If you're already using 1.1, try the next issue's solution.<br />
<br />
=== Crash when either GTA3 or Vice City are loading. ===<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in Single Player without MTA before actually running it with MTA.<br />
<br />
=== Freeze when client tries to display dialog asking for game path. ===<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> <br />
[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> <br />
[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
=== Crash on client startup. ===<br />
This is likely caused by the client failing to download the welcome message, since it is no longer being hosted. Fix this by adding "DontGetLatest=1" on the second line of your "mta.ini" in your Multi Theft Auto folder (under "[Main]"). Alternatively, try creating a blank file called "mtaclientwelcome.dat" in your MTA folder - this is probably only relevant if this is the first time you've run the MTA 0.5 client.<br />
''Update:'' We've managed to replicate, confirm and fix this bug. May be fixed in the future. In the meantime, change the following value in mta.ini.<br />
<br />
<nowiki>DontGetLatest=1</nowiki><br />
<br />
=== XFire crashes game during loading. ===<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
<br />
=== MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage." ===<br />
Try closing every other open window first. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5. It has also been reported that changing game version from 1.0 to 1.1 (for Vice City) can fix this, though we're not sure why.<br />
=== Further update: All the error reports that have come in about this are using Vice City 1.0. Try updating to [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip 1.1]. ===<br />
<br />
Update: It has been reported that "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" can set off this error. We advise that you close "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" if you wish to play MTA 0.5.<br />
<br />
=== If you try to spawn as a Crusader twice, you get disconnected for trainer usage. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== You join a server and are told you are banned, even though you aren't in the ban list. ===<br />
The cause of this is unknown. You may be banned by a over-general ban in the server's ban list.<br />
<br />
=== In MTA:VC Stunt, RC vehicles can appear locked when you try to enter them. ===<br />
This should be fixable by exiting Vice City, and starting the game again.<br />
<br />
=== GTA3:MTA Shoreside Vale: Two players and two vehicles appear on the character select screen, followed shortly by a crash. ===<br />
We've only seen this occur a few times (once to me during beta) and may try to fix it if a cause can be found.<br />
<br />
=== MTA:VC (either map) crashes when you try to get on a bike as passenger when it has no driver. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== Your server doesn't appear in the server list, or appears as "unscanned". ===<br />
This isn't an issue, but ensure that you have the correct port open for ASE to query through. This should be your server port plus 123. For example, with the default port of 2003, port 2126 should be open. This port is UDP.<br><br />
'''NOTE''': The All-Seeing Eye server browser is no longer operational, but an external server browser is bundled with the [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe MTA 0.5 repack]. You still must forward the proper port as described for your server to show up on Game-Monitor<br />
<br />
=== You receive the error "ERROR: The ServerName, ServerPort, GameMap, GameHour, GameMins, Weather and BannedFile MUST be specified in the configuration file" when you run your server, and all fields are filled in. ===<br />
''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix''<br><br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
=== Client crashes when you join a server. ===<br />
''May be fixed in next client release''<br><br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash. This may be fixed in the next client release.<br />
<br />
=== You have quite a few files on your computer called MTAChat.txt. ===<br />
MTAChat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Don't worry about it, really... this may be fixed or disabled in the next client version. In the meantime, feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
<br />
=== Upon hitting "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified. ===<br />
''May be fixed in next client release''<br><br />
This is an error with the way we temporarily replace some of the games files. When you install take a back up of both weapon.dat and weapon.mta from the /data/ directory in your Grand Theft Auto folder and put them somewhere safe. If you get this error close the client, REPLACE both files and retry. <br />
<br />
=== When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error. ===<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try Talidan's [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
<br />
=== Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5 executable is a virus or malware. ===<br />
MTA does '''not''' contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. If your virus scanner informs you that it is infected, either you have a virus on your computer that is infecting your files, or one of our mirrors has been infected with a virus or your virus scanner is making a mistake. McAfee has been known to make this mistake. We've informed Norton and McAfee of this, but they've yet to fix it. In the meantime, disable your virus scanner while playing. Also, ensure you only download from this site. [http://files.mtasa.com/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
<br />
=== You get a crash at the address 652f30 when starting the game. ===<br />
This is caused by having the incorrect GXT file. To fix this, copy all the gxt files from the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\TEXT folder except the "american.gxt" into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\MTA folder. You should also ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
=== Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server. ===<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTAMA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTAMA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow Aeron's instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to Mike for discovering the cause of this problem and Aeron for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

<div>==Introduction==<br />
Multi Theft Auto: mIRC Admin (MTA:mA) is an admin client for MTA developed by ''Aeron'' in [http://www.mirc.com mIRC]. It has the possibility to create and run custom-made mIRC scripts on MTA servers, useful for creating gamemodes, whilst providing other functions such as cheat protection and links to other programs.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===v1 series===<br />
<br />
It all started back in the MTA:VC v0.2.2 days. A normal player nicknamed ''Aeron'' drives around on his ''PCJ600'' and sees some other players racing 'orginized' racing. He joins the club and did some races. The only problem was that the countdown of 5 wasn't really smooth and the player who's typing it was always the first to start or the last. ''Aeron'' wondered if there was not a possibility to get some sort of script running that does the countdown that gets triggerd with '!count'. After some searching he realized there was no such ability. Therefore he decided to make his own. With use of ''Ethereal'' he sniffed around in the packets that MTA sends and note them down. He saw that the packets were not encoded and that there was some sort of structure. After creating alot of mIRC-scripts over the years, he created one to connect with a MTA server as a client and named it ''MTA Connection Script''. After some scripting he could finally create his very wanted '!count'-script:<br />
<br />
alias mta.text {<br />
if ($2 == !count) {<br />
mta.say Count down!<br />
.timer9 1 1 mta.say 5<br />
.timer8 1 2 mta.say 4<br />
.timer7 1 3 mta.say 3<br />
.timer6 1 4 mta.say 2<br />
.timer5 1 5 mta.say 1<br />
.timer4 1 6 mta.say GOGOGO!<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC v0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC v0.3.<br />

Later he made a post of it on MTA forums which can be found [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?t=5362 here]. After some positive replies, he decided to continue work on it. But after [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?p=53791 this] post and a PM to ''Blokker_1999'' about the netcode the MTA team realized this could go wrong as you can see in ''Blokker_1999'''s reply on the PM:<br />
<br />
WE HATE HACKERS!<br />
<br />
''MrBump'' made a suggestion to make it Admin only and ''MrBump'' became ''Aeron'''s contact person and advisor about the script. ''Aeron'' renamed the script to ''MTA Admin Control'' and had a warm welcome in this [http://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?p=54788 post] after there where handy scripts running on some popular servers.<br />
<br />
A couple of days later when MTA:VC v0.3 was released posted ''MrBump'' a frontpage post when ''MTA Admin Control'' v1.18 was ready for release, but he decided to release it under the name ''MTA mIRC Admin''.<br />
<br />
MTA:mA v1.21 is the latest version for MTA:VC v0.3.<br />

MTA 0.5 Known Issues
2010-11-09T05:47:31Z
<p>Towncivilian: </p>
<hr />
<div>__NOTOC__<br />
<br />
This applies to MTA 0.5 (both GTA3:MTA and MTA:VC). The known issues for MTA:SA 1.x can be found [[Known_Issues_-_FAQ | here]].<br />
<br />
''Server operators: ensure you are running the [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=27645 MTAServer Patch 1 Hotfix]. [http://mta.modpro.be/apps/0.5/mta05_server_win32_patch1_hotfix.zip Windows.] [http://mta.modpro.be/apps/0.5/mta05_server_linux_patch1_hotfix.tar.gz Linux]''<br />
<br />
=== In-game MOTDs appear as nonsense. ===<br />
We noticed this during testing but it wasn't fixed. This may be fixed in a future release. In the meantime, server admins can disable the MOTD by changing your mtaserver.conf and use the rich MOTD instead.<br />
<br />
=== Australian and German EXEs (and possibly others) may produce an "invalid executable" error when you try to start a game. ===<br />
As Australian and German EXEs don't work reliably with MTA, this shouldn't be a huge problem. Try to obtain a standard EXE. You can try Talidan's [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher].<br />
<br />
=== The in-game help marker says the game is MTA 0.4, when it clearly is MTA 0.5. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== Crash when MTA:VC DM is loading. ===<br />
We're not sure what causes this, but we know that about 60% of these crashes can be fixed by upgrading to Vice City 1.1. [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip Here's] the 1.1 patch download. If you're already using 1.1, try the next issue's solution.<br />
<br />
=== Crash when either GTA3 or Vice City are loading. ===<br />
Make sure you run GTA3 or Vice City at least once in Single Player without MTA before actually running it with MTA.<br />
<br />
=== Freeze when client tries to display dialog asking for game path. ===<br />
There have been a couple of occurrence of this, and we'd be interested to see why this is. You can avoid it by manually setting the path in the mta.ini in the Multi Theft Auto directory.<br />
<br />
For Vice City, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> <br />
[Game-VC]<br />
Version=0<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
For GTA3:MTA, your mta.ini should contain (replace the path if necessary):<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> <br />
[Game-GTA3]<br />
Version=1<br />
Location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTAIII\gta3.exe</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
=== Crash on client startup. ===<br />
This is likely caused by the client failing to download the welcome message, since it is no longer being hosted. Fix this by adding "DontGetLatest=1" on the second line of your "mta.ini" in your Multi Theft Auto folder (under "[Main]"). Alternatively, try creating a blank file called "mtaclientwelcome.dat" in your MTA folder - this is probably only relevant if this is the first time you've run the MTA 0.5 client.<br />
''Update:'' We've managed to replicate, confirm and fix this bug. May be fixed in the future. In the meantime, change the following value in mta.ini.<br />
<br />
<nowiki>DontGetLatest=1</nowiki><br />
<br />
=== XFire crashes game during loading. ===<br />
Both XFire and MTA use similar methods for integrating themselves into the game. We've contacted XFire to offer our support for them in implementing support for MTA, but they haven't responded. If you wish to use XFire in MTA, contact XFire. In the meantime, disable XFire before you play.<br />
<br />
=== MTA claims "Suspected Trainer Usage." ===<br />
Try closing every other open window first. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling MTA 0.5. It has also been reported that changing game version from 1.0 to 1.1 (for Vice City) can fix this, though we're not sure why.<br />
=== Further update: All the error reports that have come in about this are using Vice City 1.0. Try updating to [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/vicecity/vicepatch_11.zip 1.1]. ===<br />
<br />
Update: It has been reported that "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" can set off this error. We advise that you close "Kaspersky Anti Hacker" if you wish to play MTA 0.5.<br />
<br />
=== If you try to spawn as a Crusader twice, you get disconnected for trainer usage. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== You join a server and are told you are banned, even though you aren't in the ban list. ===<br />
The cause of this is unknown. You may be banned by a over-general ban in the server's ban list.<br />
<br />
=== In MTA:VC Stunt, RC vehicles can appear locked when you try to enter them. ===<br />
This should be fixable by exiting Vice City, and starting the game again.<br />
<br />
=== GTA3:MTA Shoreside Vale: Two players and two vehicles appear on the character select screen, followed shortly by a crash. ===<br />
We've only seen this occur a few times (once to me during beta) and may try to fix it if a cause can be found.<br />
<br />
=== MTA:VC (either map) crashes when you try to get on a bike as passenger when it has no driver. ===<br />
Addressed in [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=19985 Towncivilian's SCM update]. If another release of MTA 0.x rolls around this update will be included.<br />
<br />
=== Your server doesn't appear in the server list, or appears as "unscanned". ===<br />
This isn't an issue, but ensure that you have the correct port open for ASE to query through. This should be your server port plus 123. For example, with the default port of 2003, port 2126 should be open. This port is UDP.<br><br />
'''NOTE''': The All-Seeing Eye server browser is no longer operational, but an external server browser is bundled with the [http://mta.modpro.be/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe MTA 0.5 repack]. You still must forward the proper port as described for your server to show up on Game-Monitor<br />
<br />
=== You receive the error "ERROR: The ServerName, ServerPort, GameMap, GameHour, GameMins, Weather and BannedFile MUST be specified in the configuration file" when you run your server, and all fields are filled in. ===<br />
''Only affects Server Patch 1 Hotfix''<br><br />
Ensure that your server name is 49 characters or less. This is a misleading error. This may be fixed in a future release.<br />
<br />
=== Client crashes when you join a server. ===<br />
''May be fixed in next client release''<br><br />
This crash may be caused by the client trying to download the rich text MOTD specified by the server and failing (e.g. the site its trying to get it from is down, or the URL is invalid). If this happens, the client will crash. This may be fixed in the next client release.<br />
<br />
=== You have quite a few files on your computer called MTAChat.txt. ===<br />
MTAChat.txt, as you probably guessed, stores a chat log. This feature was added at the last moment and not properly tested. Consequently, this problem has occurred. This is probably due to how the client has been launched (the start path determines where it saves the chat, not the install path). Don't worry about it, really... this may be fixed or disabled in the next client version. In the meantime, feel free to delete any files you don't want.<br />
<br />
=== Upon hitting "Start Game" the client informs you your client is modified. ===<br />
''May be fixed in next client release''<br><br />
This is an error with the way we temporarily replace some of the games files. When you install take a back up of both weapon.dat and weapon.mta from the /data/ directory in your Grand Theft Auto folder and put them somewhere safe. If you get this error close the client, REPLACE both files and retry. <br />
<br />
=== When playing GTA3 you receive an "Invalid Executable" error. ===<br />
This is probably because you are using GTA3 version 1.0 instead of 1.1. You can get the GTA3 1.1 patch [http://updates.rockstargames.com/patches/grandtheftauto3/GTA3patch1.1.zip here]. If this doesn't work, or you already have GTA3 1.1, make sure you have the USA/UK EXE; you can try Talidan's [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12180 invalid executable patcher]. Failing that, try to obtain one elsewhere.<br />
<br />
=== Your virus scanner informs you that the Multi Theft Auto 0.5 executable is a virus or malware. ===<br />
MTA does '''not''' contain any viruses, malware, adware or spyware. If your virus scanner informs you that it is infected, either you have a virus on your computer that is infecting your files, or one of our mirrors has been infected with a virus or your virus scanner is making a mistake. McAfee has been known to make this mistake. We've informed Norton and McAfee of this, but they've yet to fix it. In the meantime, disable your virus scanner while playing. Also, ensure you only download from this site. [http://mta.modpro.be/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />
<br />
=== You get a crash at the address 652f30 when starting the game. ===<br />
This is caused by having the incorrect GXT file. To fix this, copy all the gxt files from the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\TEXT folder except the "american.gxt" into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\MTA folder. You should also ensure your game language is set to English.<br />
<br />
=== Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server. ===<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTAMA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTAMA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow Aeron's instructions regarding its use.<br />
<br />
A big thank-you to Mike for discovering the cause of this problem and Aeron for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />

Also, ensure you only download from this site. [http://mta.modpro.be/apps/0.5/mta05_full_installer_repack.exe This link] is hosted by our webhost. Use this if you doubt the validity of your copy of MTA.<br />

=== You get a crash at the address 652f30 when starting the game. ===<br />
This is caused by having the incorrect GXT file. To fix this, copy all the gxt files from the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\TEXT folder except the "american.gxt" into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\MTA folder. You should also ensure your game language is set to English.<br />

=== Your client times out as soon as you connect to a server. Players all time out when they connect to your server. ===<br />
This has been an unknown problem for quite some time now, but it seems it is caused not by MTA or the MTAServer but by MTAMA, or more specifically scripts running on it. If the scripts send multiple messages to the player when they join it is highly likely to time them out. This results in nobody being able to play. <br />
<br />
For now a fix is available for MTAMA [http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?p=181919#181919 here] (hopefully GRS will also be updated soon).<br />
<br />
Please follow Aeron's instructions regarding its use.<br />

A big thank-you to Mike for discovering the cause of this problem and Aeron for getting a fix out so quickly.<br />
