SA-MP 0.2X and 0.3

[Altair_Carter]

Due to some large scale abuse of the current SA-MP 0.2.2 client and server, I have decided to release a new update to SA-MP 0.2 called SA-MP 0.2X. This release contains security and networking fixes only. The SA-MP version being developed as 0.2.5 will now become SA-MP 0.3.

All servers and players will have to update to 0.2X when it is released, as the SA-MP 0.2.2 server list will be discontinued. SA-MP 0.2.2 clients can't connect to 0.2X servers.

I'm releasing an initial test version of 0.2X with a Windows server mainly for server owners to check the compatibility of their scripts for 0.2X and provide any feedback. This also includes fixes from 0.2.2 R3 client/server.

- Fixed insecure handling of private messages.
- Fixed packet fragmentation/MTU issue.
- Various security updates to the netcode and connection logic.
- Security updates to the client binaries.
- Removed compression from the aiming vectors to improve accuracy.
- Added seconds to server logs and also shows raw incomming UDP connections.
- OnVehicleMod/OnVehiclePaintjob/OnVehicleRespray includes the origin playerid.
- Added OnPlayerUpdate, a callback fired for every player network update. This will help with server-side anti-cheat and detecting alt-tabbed/idle players.

Code: [Select]

forward OnVehicleMod(playerid, vehicleid, componentid);
forward OnVehiclePaintjob(playerid, vehicleid, paintjobid);
forward OnVehicleRespray(playerid, vehicleid, color1, color2);
forward OnPlayerUpdate(playerid); // called for every player network update. return 0 to prevent replication to other clients.- Limited MAX_FILTER_SCRIPTS to 16 to conserve server CPU.

Initial testing version of 0.2X (testing 1)
0.2X Testing 1 Client
0.2X Testing 2 Server Windows

Feedback can be provided in this thread.

Pretty cool, will be testing its features..

Keep in mind that 0.2.X will not work on 0.2.2 servers.

But .. What will happen to server hosts, say for example Sauron .. will he have to update his servers?
this will cause difficulty

Simple...

FTP: Connect panel.azellusgames.com:7777 <<-- ofcourse not the real FTP, but it's worth to visit the site xD
FTP: Delete sa-mp 0.2.2 R2 server
FTP: Delete Rock Stars 3.0
FTP: Upload sa-mp 0.2X server
FTP: Upload Rock Stars 3.0X/Rock Stars 4.0
Gandalf: :cool:


Only the development team need to make Rock Stars 3.0 and 4.0 up-to-date with 0.2X, something Sauron doesn't care.

[Omri]

The non official server has been changed to the version 0.2X

[Matthew_Mcbride]

I think Sauron cares that the servers he is hosting are running ... otherwise that would be a waste of an IPZors..but I was talking about the community, if you have 02x..and you connect to the server of which doesnt run a 02x server .. that will be a problem

oh and

Gandalf: :cool:

HAHAHA!!

Sauron only earns money of it, and that the server runs stable.

if the gamemode works or not for people, is the problem for Aragorn, Gandalf and his team.

 I guess you're right
