That tutorial will
help the players who are having trouble running your game and
correct possible problems.

I get the error: "San Andreas cannot be found"
San Andreas Multi-player is not a stand-alone program! It adds
the multi-player functionality to GTA:SA, which lets you play
with several people on different servers. And thus you need GTA
San Andreas for the PC - note it also needs to be EU/US v1.0,
other versions such as v2.0 or Steam and Direct2Drive
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct2Drive
will not work.
I can't see any servers in SA-MP browser
You must allow SA:MP access through your firewall.
Unfortunately, due to the large amount of available firewall
software, I can not give you detailed info - I recommend you
looking at the manufacturers website or trying a Google search.
Also make sure you have the latest SA:MP version.
GTA:SA (Offline) loads instead of SA-MP
You are not supposed to see the options of Single-player (New
Game, Load Game, etc) - SA:MP should load by itself and not
present these options. If you see default GTA:SA loading screen
instead of SA:MP's "Connecting to..." the Singe-player mode is
being loaded.
Usually this can ocurr due to 2 reasons: You have installed
SA:MP to the wrong folder or you have the wrong version of San
Andreas. If you have the wrong version, it's easy to fix.
Download this pacth
HTML http://www.moddb.com/games/san-online-roleplay/downloads/gtasa-version-10-patch<br
/>changing your version of GTA:SA to version 1.0.
Sometimes, the single-player menu will be shown, but SA:MP will
have in fact loaded properly. To fix this you simply need to
select an item on the menu then press esc until you're out of
it, then SA:MP will proceed to load.
Note: Single-player mode in GTA:SA, sometimes, can also be
loaded by an execution in the administration enabled in the
extension .exe file!
Right click on samp.exe > Properties > Compatibility and, then,
uncheck the option 'run the program as an administrator' > Ok.
I get: "Unacceptable NickName" when I connecting to UIF server
Ensure you are not using any disallowed characters in your
nickname (use 0-9, az, AZ, [], (), $, @, . and = only), and
that your nickname is not less than 3 and no longer than 20
characters. This also could be caused when a player is on a
server with the same nick as you (which can happen if you
re-join a server very soon after timing out or crashing). Also a
Windows server running SA:MP with a uptime greater than 50 days
can cause this bug.
Screen sticks at: "Connecting to ip:port...''
The server could be offline, or if you can't connect to any
server, disable your firewall and see if it works. If it does,
you must set up your firewall - search on Google to find out
how.
It could also be that you have an old version of SA:MP, download
the latest version from the SA:MP download page
HTML http://sa-mp.com/download.php.
I have a modified GTA:SA and SA-MP won't load
Simple. If it won't load then remove your mods.
When launchin GTA:SA with SA-MP it won't start
Delete the gta_sa.set file from your userfiles folder (My
Documents\San Andreas User Files) and make sure you don't have
any cheats/mods.
The game crashes when a vehicle explodes
If you have 2 monitors then there are 3 ways to solve this:
1. Disable your 2dr monitor when you play sa-mp. (Maybe not so
smart if you like to have the monitor on.)
2. Set your Visual FX quality to low. (Esc > Options > Display
Setup > Advanced)
3. Rename your GTA San Andreas folder (e.g. to "GTA San
Andreas2") (This often works, however sometimes it may stop
working again so you need to rename it to something else).
Additional: If you've made a download of a new vehicle model for
directory of your GTA:SA. Try to get the original files or
download it at another location.
The downloaded files comes pre-installed, which does have a good
chance of coming any files corrupted causing this crash in your
gamemode.
My mouse doesn't work after exiting the pause menu (esc)
If your mouse seems to be frozen ingame while it (partially)
works in the pause menu, then you should disable the multicore
option sa-mp.cfg (set it to 0). Continuously tapping Escape
until the mouse responds again may also work, but it is not as
neat a solution.
The file dinput8.dll is missing
This is possibly arises when DirectX is not properly installed,
try re-installing it - don't forget to restart your PC. If the
problem still arises, just go at C:\Windows\System32 and copy
paste the dinput.dll file to the root directory of your GTA San
Andreas. That would solve it.
I can't see other player's nametags
Please be aware that some servers may have nametags globally
disabled. Otherwise, this problem often occurs on computers with
Intel HD integrated graphics processors (which aren't really
meant for gaming, anyway). Unfortunately, the exact cause is
unknown and there doesn't seem to be a universal fix available
at present time either. A long term fix would be to install a
dedicated graphics card in your computer, if this is possible
and if your budget allows it. Laptops, of course, can't be
upgraded.
I get a dialogue box stating: "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime
Library"
Runtime errors are computer errors most often caused by system
conflicts between system programs and other currently running
software applications. They can also be caused by software
issues, memory problems or viruses. Usually, a runtime error
will cause your system to noticeably slow down just before a
message box appears showing the code and definitions associated
with the error.
