Vice City multiplayer (Multi Theft Auto) - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Sleepyjack · 08-04-2003, 10:28 PM

a group of modders have put together a mod for multiplayer gta:vice city for the pc.
ITs the first release and is a little buggy, but there is some great potential. Even thought its the first release, its a hoot.

That's awesome.
Now all I have to do is get Vice City... and more RAM...

YaWhateva · 08-05-2003, 07:27 PM

i wonder if this version works over a lan. I will have to try it out.

Kadath · 08-05-2003, 07:33 PM

Crap, I might have to get this for PC now...

Zello · 08-05-2003, 08:48 PM

I've been playing it for a couple hours. Definently cool. Everyone is very jumpy which makes it near impossible to hit them if they strafe side to side. Then the game crashes at least every 10 min. People blame it on other people using trainers.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on lan. Just host a server and get the server's IP.

In a server we had like 10 people in the bloodring doing a destruction derby which was really cool.

The_Dude · 08-05-2003, 09:17 PM

i'll wait till the next version comes out.

hopefully it's less buggy

Sleepyjack · 08-05-2003, 10:18 PM

yeah it works on lan, i've played it on a lan with 4 others.
You need to set up a dedicated server and then its pretty easy to connect from then on.

Its is good fun and really funny the way the guys move. Sometimes a little frustrating when they seem to die, but actually don't....lots of fun nevertheless.

tronims · 08-05-2003, 10:49 PM

i still wonder why the developers didnt put this in the game, i always wondered what it would be like and with this we see the light. It is a lot of fun and cant wait till it is done professionally. It really brang new life into the game.

GakFace · 08-05-2003, 11:20 PM

was about to buy it.. now i'm most definately getting it this weekend

I now have monies!

Mr.Deflok · 08-06-2003, 01:15 AM

Just playing it, MY GOD THIS ROCKS!!!!!!!!

We need to set up a TFP GTA VC Server!

sadatx · 08-06-2003, 02:41 AM

I just beat Vice City a little while ago so I don't want to get all Vice Cityed out. But it sounds like something I'm gonna have to try eventually......

.....Or maybe I'll try it now, just for a little bit....

lalalapi · 08-06-2003, 01:14 PM

From the posts I've read, it would seem that this is a deathmatch mod. Any confirmation on that? Also, does anyone know of any mission-based cooperative, mission-based counteroperative, or simple team mods? I couldn't access any of the media/documents on the linked dsite, as it appears the server's down.

mantra · 08-06-2003, 02:04 PM

there is another mod for multiplayer called gtaTournament it can be found here http://www.gta3mods.de/gtavc_mods.php

enjoy !

Mr.Deflok · 08-06-2003, 08:12 PM

Simple Deathmatch but on all the servers I played on we teamed up to do crazy as stunts and show off and shit.

lalalapi · 08-06-2003, 09:25 PM

Thanks for the info, Mantra and Mr.Deflok. I'm downloading the MTA mod right now, as well as a few of those at the site Mantra linked.

Stare At The Sun · 08-06-2003, 11:12 PM

Kik ass mod, thanks for the link!!!

Soda_BoB · 08-07-2003, 02:51 AM

Sweet can't wait to try it, thanks for the link

mute76 · 08-07-2003, 08:20 AM

Vice City on the PC? Bah! It's a console game...you're cheating yourself on the PC.

Hahaha, you should be a comedian, "Console game" , you crack me up!

YaWhateva · 08-07-2003, 01:12 PM

Oh we are cheating ourselves? I have VC on ps2 and on pc, the pc version is the shit. On the ps2 can you turn the graphics to a higher setting and turn up the resolution? What no? Can you mod the shit out of the game? no? pc version is way way way better. Just like with gta3. Dont get me wrong, i love the ps2 but there is no competition here.

nostalgic1 · 08-07-2003, 01:57 PM

i was indecisive about buying it for the pc before.. but after hearing this... i'll probably pick it up this weekend.

dj_simo · 08-10-2003, 07:38 PM

is this stuff for VC or the regular GTA3 - me and a friend are doing movies - our last one is on File Planet and is Called Manana Rampage heres the link: http://www.fileplanet.com/files/110000/116452.shtml
i highly recommend you download it!

jhericurl21 · 08-10-2003, 07:48 PM

R34 for gta3

R33 for Vice

and theres so much more.....

Renegade · 08-28-2003, 04:38 PM

Wow! I had heard they did some coding for multiplayer, but didn't think there was enough for someone to hack to work. I must check this out asap!

...

Why, may I ask? The only possible thing about is the lack of a controller, and you can buy one of those (if you're allergic to keyboards or something)

GakFace · 08-28-2003, 10:55 PM

actually correct me if i'm wrong, but GTA originally started on the computer.. thus it BRANCHED to the console.. but it was born on the computer, and thus reigns on the computer

Mr.Deflok · 08-28-2003, 11:24 PM

Looks like we've laughed mute76 off the TFP!

AntHackerX · 08-29-2003, 10:36 AM

Bah! I refuse to throw XP onto this computer...therefore, I can't play MTA until they make one compatible for 98SE. >_> Bah...

*holds on tight to 98SE*
