I'm sure you get this question a lot, but is VCMP a dead project, or does it still have active developers? I mean, yea, SA/IV are newer, but they will never be as good as VC. I'd be happy to contribute a lot of things to the wiki, for other people to read and learn - and I'm always finding bugs and thinking "maybe it will be fixed in the next release", but is there going to be a next release?

VC:MP isn't dead. Development on the other hand..

Yeah Callum there are still quite a few people developing new things and servers for VC:MP, but the official developement side of it is dead.

Anyone who says VC:MP in general is dead doesn't know what they're talking about. Average playercount in 2008: 30

Average playercount 2009: 40

Average playercount 2010: 70

2011: 140+

lol, yea, VC is simply the best GTA. I'm learning C++ and C# at the moment - might be interested in working with VCMP after I learn it (if that's allowed  :P).

Completely.

There might have been around 60 at the start of 2008, but bear in mind that I said average. From about September 08 to late December 08 the playercount never really got above 20 and would go for long periods of hanging around 9 or 10. I used to come online and see absolutely no players whatsoever at points. If you don't remember, the MSL was down for quite some time and the most popular server at the time (LWs) was also having huge issues, with the script going down for weeks at a time.

If anything, saying that the average was 30 is an exaggeration.

Well Charley, I started playing VCMP ~ summer 2008 and I remember, that one server, on which I used to play, was fully complete 30 slots and it was Saturday morning! :o There were also many clans, so I think that there were more players. But if you are sure about then 30, then let it be :P.

Lmao come on dude average player count in 2008 even 07 was around 100 as well. Just remember when i started on UMS rpg or American server, there were plenty of servers with high player count. I guess there was even more people, more clans in whole vcmp.
Nowadays player count isnt  much bigger than it used to be.
Even NC nub remember that :D
