Post here your proposed Q&A, regarding the known problems with MTASA DM and their solutions, especially problems we're encountering now, that might be also encountered by users in the final release. You're also welcome to edit them grammar/style wise.
- Q: MTA crashes after the 'Stop playing with yourself' logo. Both single player and the MTA: Race ran fine before.
A: Try downloading the latest DirectX Runtime files from Microsoft.
- Q: My controls don't seem to work as they should.
A: Try using the 'copygtacontrols' command in the console.
- Q: Woman model's breasts look awkward ingame / I'm seeing odd, spider-like shaped player models.
A: 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.
- Q: Drivebys arent working as they should
A: Drivebys are handled by script, and will change depending on the loaded gamemode.
- Q: My MTA setting(s) didn't get saved (...) I crashed.
A: 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.
- Q: MTA doesnt recognise my gamepad
A: This is a known issue - MTA's keybinds system does not support direct input. As an alternative, JoyToKey can be used. This emulates joypad buttons as keyboard/mouse so that it can be used in MTA.
- Q: My screen/sky flickers when weather or sky effects are enabled.
A: MTA:SA DM uses a new text rendering system from race, which is much more efficient in terms of FPS. However, this can cause conflicts within the game, particularly with ATI based cards. To fix this, bring up the console with ¬(tilde), and type the command ceguitext 1. This reverts the rendering method to that of Race. All glitches should no longer happen, at the cost of lower FPS.
