Important notice to Windows 7 and 8.x users

If you are using Windows 7 or 8.x, please upgrade your system to Windows 10 or 11 as soon as possible. Windows 7 and 8.x are no longer supported by Microsoft (since January 2020 and January 2023 respectively) and most software (including Google Chrome and Steam) which means you are running an insecure system. Multi Theft Auto will also eventually drop Windows 7 and 8.x support sometime in the future, so it would be a good idea to start looking at upgrade options right now. Thank you!

CEF in MTA is no longer updated for Windows 7 or 8.x. This is because CEF no longer supports those versions of Windows. This bad for security, so please upgrade to Windows 10+ and MTA to 1.6+

2 Deprecations

These changes will take effect in this version and scripts may need to be manually upgraded when updating:

• Changed base64Encode and base64Decode to throw a warning on use, please upgrade to encodeString and decodeString instead (30a83b0 by Nico8340)

Notable Changes

• Support for Discord Rich Presence (fdaa3ac, ef26810, acfbd40 by znjvder, tederis, patrikjuvonen and Deihim007)
