okays i am very frustrated and angry right now. in this weekend i have already had to fix 5 problems with my computer and i am getting dead tired from it.
this time i cannot start up my mta.
i was ingame and my game crashed. so i shut everything down. and now when i try to start it up i get a message kinda like this (i had to translate it from dutch to english)
an error occured in multi theft auto 0.5 en has to be shut down.
(couldnt translate the next line it says but this is sorta what it says)
you were starting this thing up, but some information is probably lost.
Solution (by Gandalf):
The solution was found... the website MTAVC was down
If it crashes the first it does, that is before you connect. Its the mta website that are missing..
try this:
Put this in mta.ini DontGetLatest=1
Steps:
1. Open mta.ini in notepad
2. Search for [Main]
3. Add DontGetLatest=1 on a new line under [Main]
3. Save and start mtaclient
Ex:
[Main]
DontGetLatest=1

Mate im having the exact same problem. Everything was fine earlier. Now I get the same error...I cant play MTA at all..
Please help out guys..
-
and i also cannot get to the mta FAQ because the website wont load for somereason
-
I just resinstalled MTA, and even Vice City, and I still get the same error.. :'(
Something is up.
Is anyone else having this problem??
-
I will write some tips that might help.
When in doubt, download a fresh MTA client. Make sure you can play VC without MTA.
1. Re-installing MTA. : be sure to install it ONLY for the games you have. If you have only Vice-City do not install GTA3.
2. Install it with the error reporting tool. I once did without and after a crash could not type in game. When installed with the error reporter it works fine..
3. Reset game paths: under the options tab you can reset the game paths to your game
If you get an error...try making a screenshot of it.

Like I said.
I reinstalled GTA, and MTA.
I have ALREADY played earlier..
The website is also down.
I cant configure options as MTA doesnt start up..
This is the error I get when I open MTA.

i get that same message but then in dutch.
i already tried to instal it without the gta 3 thing, no effect. with patch, without patch. no diffrence.
-
I did the same when I reinstalled MTA.
I think its becuase the website is down...Not sure..
either way, something is really messed up..
-
Yup, exactly the same problems here. That's why I registered. This has to be a general problem since more members have been getting the same errors.
-
Did you uninstall MTA before re-installing ?
Also check you did not install the GTA3 option.

Thank you! Fully working again. Strange that it happened to everyone at the same time, though. I re-installed everything aswell.
-
Yaaaaay!!! your my Hero Gandalf ;D ;D ;D
-
Nice one Gandalf.
Thanks for your help.
-
gandalf, already told now...
The big problem was that all of you have done a hack into the box in the first window in MTA 0.5 called" update welcome massage on startup".
And if the mtavc site is down, you can't get in MTA... :roll:
-
Metro do the change as is described here and it will not matter if MTAVC site is down or not.
It is not a hack but a problem with the standard installation of MTA.
-
i got that problem last month its very irritataing
but the problem was going away in a couple of houres.
if its not going away in a couple of houres ithink you maybe got error in your pc or bad connection etc
-
my mta wont work and the www.mtavc.com site is not working either i need a new mta installer or something. everytime i go on it says disconneced we have a problem and sorry if u were in the middle of sumthin.. so it has to be with mta not my connection
-
Shaheen if u want i can give u my mta installer to try :)
-
ok wait go on msn and il add your email aswell :) send it to me via msn
-
sry shaheen my msn isnt workin so ill have to email it 2 u :(
-
yeah thats fine :) thanks yay!
-
sent it u should get it soon
-
Shaheen read the topic at the start. If the MTAVC.com site is down it creates a problem in starting MTA.
By adding the line to mta.ini it will start MTA regardless of MTAVC.com running or not.
-
where is the mta.ini file located i tried finding it and i did not
-
where is the mta.ini file located i tried finding it and i did not
look in the folder where mta.exe is ;)
-
look in the folder where mta.exe is ;)
i know il sound dumb but i dont even know where that is :hit:
-
I got a new problem :cry:
My server list in MTA does not show all the servers, i have to refresh the list 5-6 times to view them
only a few servers appear rest all are unscanned :neutral:
this didnot happened earlier it is since a few days
wat could be the reason? :trust:
-
It is an evil ploy by us to make sure you do not use other servers :evil:
I had the same some time, but after waiting until they are scanned once it refreshed more quickly.

OK guys, this problem just happen to me too, MTA refusing to open, I'm going to do what Gandalf told but, my pc crashes often in some situations like:
-icecream truck with that funny music playing, either me or someone passing by.
-riding the icecream truck
-riding firetruck
does someone have the same problem, or if you never noticed that and your pc crashes try check it cause it may be the same problem.
BTW, why are you gandalf the white? and not gandalf the grey? :gand:

Hi fellows,
I am gotmyself and I just installed my old GTA:VC and MTA too. I like to say, that I have fort installed MTA 0.4 but it was not the same version I have seen with a friend. So, I updated it to MTA 0.5.
Well, now the main thing ... I can start MTA, I can connect to the PRG server BUT I cannot start the god damn game. I always get the same message "unhandled exception [next line] unhandled exception: c0000005 [next line] at adress: 00652f30"
Maybe some one can help me, please. I played MTA at a friends PC and it worked without any problem or things like this. I just like to play GTA:VC but you see, it is not working.
Thanks in advance!
System: WinXP SP2
Game: GTA Vice City
Connection to MP: tried via MTA 0.5 and VCMP
