Hi,
The most important thing first: My english is nearly poor, so please ignore the mistakes i will made :-)
I have a few questions about the MOD:
1. the map is to large for my 8-man-lan.is it possible to place "barickades" on the bridges, so that they are closed. I try this with trucks, but it doesnt work the way i want it
or can this be done with the play-coordinates ( WorldBounds ? )
2. The weapon id?s with 2 numbers ( 18, 21 etc) are working well for the group-start-weapons. but i want to place weapons in the map, these id mu?t have 3 numbers ( 288 or so) i see it in the basic-config. iss there a pdf-file with this id?s ?
i allready have the "car id" and the "2-number weapon id" pdf?s. or iss there a simple way to find out the numbers ? by adding a fixed number, or so...
3. I have place many many many cars, and now my games crahses @startup. is there a limit of cars ? i have made no mistakes in placing them. i checked it. when i only put in the half of the ammount, the games starts... crazy...
this is it, for the first time ^^ i also dont want to torture you longer with my english for this time ???
i hope someone will help me
thx, timo

1. It's possible to set boundaries. You just need x+, x-, y+, y- coordinates.
2. http://gtam.info/adam/id/pickups_weapons.txt (http://gtam.info/adam/id/pickups_weapons.txt)
3. There is a limit. It's like ~190. What vehicles did you set? There are some which are unallowed (like 180, 181 or Cuban Hermes).

1. ok thx, is there anywhere a nice jpg (or so) where x = 0 and y = 0 is shown or have i to try myself ;D
2.exactly for this i was searching, thx ^^
3. oh, yes there where over 100 cars. it was a boring day, so i place cars nearly one hour. mh, do you know if the mod-developers want to set the limit higher (if it is possible ;) ) with ~100 cars the card is very empty *joke*

Well, I'll try to explain it.
Let's say you want to fence a Junk Yard. You need proper coordinates. Here's a pic no. 1:

As you see, you need upper x, lower x, uppper y and lower y. When you get those coords you have to place them in your config file. Take a look:

It's important to place coords like this.
If you can't make it I can help you.

There is a very easy and helpful tool around, for the world boundaries. You simply select the area on the map, and you'll get the coordinates by that.
Jacob's worldboundaries tool. (http://www.mtavcsux.net/jacob/WorldBoundaries.rar)

Wow, it's really useful tool. Thanks for that.

Well, yeah, everyone would've found it if they looked through the FAQ. ::)
-
thx for all the help :) all important questions are answered ;)
I have read the faq, it?s like: not to see the wood for the trees ;D
exspecially when english is not your first language
but this mp-mod kicks ass ^^ no other game i know, has this flair.

Well, it is really easy :)
But it's hard to understand for newbies.
