Seeing as how we get some many requests for help with SA-MP I decided a dedicated topic would be best for it for now. If you need help with SA-MP please post here outlining the problem and what you have already done to try and fix it. The best place if not here is the SA-MP Forums on the mods official website, so check them out to.

Thanks.

Hi okey av installed SA-MP correctly, however everytym i try to play on a server the games says it cannot carry on as there is a an error...any ideas why? av posted screenshots below.

Also i cant seem to play any games hosted.. everytym i join a game the graphics detail is messed up ...ie the the selected character is floating in thin air with no walls, roads etc... this is not a problem wen i play the original game without the server( tend to play highest graphic detail without any problems) av tried playin on the lowest resolution and detail but still the same problem.. wud greaty appreciate if any one can help...screen shots below as well.

Well, I get some of those errors too when SA-MP would crash and give me an error message. Probably it's just a common problem with SA-MP. I'm not sure about your other problem.

Pic 1: Just a general bug
Pic 2: try an other server. If you get the same re-install. If worked for me. And try getting high poligon counting mods out.

Need some help:

I install SAMP in SA directory( i have version 1.00).The shortcut with SAMP appeard on desktop.I run SAMP and choosed a server.I press concect,and the game started.It wasn't SAMP,it was only the SA game.So i didnt installed corectly SAMP? Or it is a bug?

[Jace]

Check you San Andreas root. It should contain:
-rcon.exe
-samp.exe
-samp.saa
-samp.dll
-samp_debug.exe

You got that?



@Jared: I still think this is Gameplay and Help and not modding...

It should also have a configuration files if I remember correctly.

Also, topic moved, I realized this is modding related, not gameplay.

[TG187]

It says now that I need a

Spoiler

vorbisefile.dll

.Where can I get it?

[Jared]

That should have been installed when you installed the game itself. Since it is only 64.0 kb's though, your better off downloading the file then reinstalling the entire game:

Thanks Jared.I will download the file and I will see if it's working.I am sure it will.

[Jace]

How'd you lose the Vorbis file?

And you have to have
-USERDATA.dat


And in what way is this modding Jared? It's a mod, ok. But you also can see it as a part for San Andreas PC. So it's also help. And since it's a topic for sa-mp help it would suit help more. A general discussion about sa-mp would suit mod more.

[TG187]

Ok,so now it saying that I need a

Spoiler

ogg.dll

file.Can someone send me all the files I need.I dont know why I dont have these files.
And I have that USERDATA.dat.

[Jace]

Damn dude. how can you play normal San An without those files?

[Jace]

Why would you loose all your work? If you mean mod, back up the .img files you have moded, reinstall and replace the img files again.

[TG187]

I reinstalled SA,and all those files appeard.I install SAMP,choosed a server and click connect.It was connecting me,good till here.But when I enter to play it,it only appeard a image and in the left corner: Connecting to: .......there were some numbers.
I waited about 10 minutes and nothing happend.I dont know why I cant play.I have V1.00.

[Jace]

Choose a other server. Some just can't connect.

Modifications don't just edit things, they can also be defined as extending the use of something. Which is what SA-MP does. It is an add-on, and not present in the default installation of the game. I would like to keep the normal gameplay forums clean of topics that are to do with modifications.
