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CEF in MTA is no longer updated for Windows 7 or 8.x. This is because CEF no longer supports those versions of Windows.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+

12 Backwards Incompatible Changes

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

• Bloodring Banger (504) is now defined as doorless, to fix animations to be consistent with single player, this also causes setVehicleLocked to not lock the vehicle anymore, as entry happens through the window.
• callRemote callbacks currently set the error code to nil when there is no error. In this version, to be consistent with fetchRemote, the error code reported will be 0 (#294).
• Since Aug 2015, we replaced the custom mtalocal:// URL scheme with http://mta/resourceName/blah.html. The mtalocal:// URL scheme will now be removed (#1071).
• Since Jul 2016 if you provide an invalid string like "randomstring" when a function expects a number, the string will be treated as 0 and raise a script warning. This will be now an error. You will still be able to provide strings containing numbers (e.g. "100" and "12.34"), this change only affects invalid strings (#1043).
• Some functions expect only unsigned integers (positive numbers), and since Jan 2016 providing negative numbers would be a warning. This will now be an error (#1070).
• When providing a width and height of (0, 0) to createBrowser or guiCreateBrowser you will encounter a script error instead of a warning, introduced in Feb 2019 (#1069).
• The previously unused z argument in getElementsWithinRange now calculates elements in 3D space instead of 2D space (#1994).
• Flamethrower ammo is no longer multiplied by 10 (#481).
• Server-side createBlip now syncs blip size and color regardless of icon ID, previously only icon ID 0 had its size and color synced to clients (#1399).
• Server-side givePlayerMoney and setPlayerMoney cap has been raised from 99.999.999 (8 digits) to 999.999.999 (9 digits) to match the maximum native UI value (#2654).
• Players are now synced when exiting vehicle (#2084).
• Server-side objects that were unbreakable by default, but would have been breakable client-side by default, are now breakable by default also server-side (commit).

5 Deprecations

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

• Changed givePedJetPack, removePedJetPack and doesPedHaveJetPack to throw a warning on use, please upgrade to setPedWearingJetpack and isPedWearingJetpack instead (804c66b by qaisjp)
