5-MP

[Huntsman]

I have already seen them and am tracking it regularly.
Their idea does make sense in a way that the game engine is equal, and it is very likely that many technical parts are going to be the same as GTA:IV.

Yet, i still remain very skeptical about it.

I checked them as well, they have so much plans and they're so sure that hey will succeed.
Now what IF the engine is completely different? What if it supports no mods? What if Rockstars will not be pleased with them making an external multiplayer mod?

There is so much IF, that makes this project even more complicated. I think they should wait for the realease and get hang of the scripting and the engine fist, before promising so much.

Projects like that mostly never succeed, and i have much examples to offer.

I hope Argonath will have a V:MP server

You should hope that they suceed first

Its funny, they dont even know how the game is gonna be scripted(and actually they cant just jump the gun and say omg i can make anything into a MP!!!). There may be problem with squirrel, maybe they will just outright fail, maybe rockstar wont like it..and endless more possiblities.

Though the donations part is already open, and my prediction says its gonna be the only one ever open...

I dont think this will work..


As exterminator said, they dont even know the way game will be made! No knowledge of game's scripting and stuff like that.
It's good if they will succeed. I hope they know what theyre doing, otherwise they will have to blush in shame in  the whole GTA community

Both of you are wrong. One of the developers of GTA:V is Game Master He is above the testers, and can make people testers for GTA:V.

There was another site developing a multiplayer mod for GTA V they chose LUA as their primary and i believe now only language.. I've not followed them since i think last year now.

I believe those were the guys who based their mod off of IV:MP after it went open-source, but decided to go the MTA:SA-style route on scripting.

In all honesty, LUA is a good language, but I think Squirrel might become the new standard. It's so much easier for people to learn and code with, and it's equally powerful. With the way the mod world is becoming, however, it may be possible to have both, and more. Many mods are supporting language modules now, so people could theoretically make their own to script in whatever language they want.

As for the game engine thing, I agree with Gandalf. It would only make sense for it to keep the same engine at this point, or at least an updated version of it. The amount of money and time to invest in a new one for the same, exact consoles would be pointless, whereas it'd make more sense for them to just optimize them to remove the old bugs instead.

Talking about that engine... is anyone working on Max Payne 3 for multiplayer ? MP3-MP

Yeah it's them.

Wrong and lie!

Why would he be involved in external multiplayer creation if he can just use the internal one? Go figure.

sorry pal to disappoint you..

i think at the moment we have enought testers, but i'm not sure, i must ask annon. Yes, my testserver is only online(the one in the header) because i'm working on 5-mp . i think we write today a little annoucement what we have done yet, but i must talk to other dev

##@FRi

and..

nope sry, i want to give it to you, but then i'm getting in big troubles :/ write a application for become a beta tester :/ sry

##@FRi

and I wonder about a little thing Rytuklis, why do you have a negative setting to everything?

[Huntsman]

Im not negative, im skeptical and realist.

Those quotes doesnt really represent anything. +, if he would be involved in GTA V development, that means he should be a mature person, and from his writing style i can state he is not.

ok so if i write liek dis iam not mature? or btw, is it just because hes speaking the chatting language?

The 'testers' thing will be referring to the modification 5-MP in this case, not the actual game. They will be developing 5-MP using IV as it is believed V will be running similar if not the same engine, so when GTA V is released there will (they are hoping) be a basic working modification. Much like SA-MP started development on Vice City which in itself ended up with a mulitplayer modification because of it.
