SA-MP 0.2x released

[Jay]

SA-MP 0.2x has just been released and is available on the SA-MP Downloads page!


Changes:

- Fixed insecure handling of private messages.
- Fixed packet fragmentation/MTU issue.
- Various security updates to the netcode and connection logic.
- Security updates to the client binaries.
- Removed compression from the aiming vectors to improve accuracy.
- Added seconds to server logs and also shows raw incomming UDP connections.
- OnVehicleMod/OnVehiclePaintjob/OnVehicleRespray includes the origin playerid.
- Added OnPlayerUpdate, a callback fired for every player network update. This will help with server-side anti-cheat and detecting alt-tabbed/idle players.

Code:

forward OnVehicleMod(playerid, vehicleid, componentid);
forward OnVehiclePaintjob(playerid, vehicleid, paintjobid);
forward OnVehicleRespray(playerid, vehicleid, color1, color2);
forward OnPlayerUpdate(playerid); // called for every player network update. return 0 to prevent replication to other clients.

- Limited MAX_FILTER_SCRIPTS to 16 to conserve server CPU.

The 0.2.2 server list is getting turned off soon according to Kye, so therefore to play LVP, you will all need to update to 0.2x when LVP updates, which could be soon.

Is this better then sa-mp 0.3?

[Erin]

Not that many great features.

[Munch]

Is it just me, or does it have a blank white screen saying 'No' when you go on the SA-MP site?

[Jay]

Just you.

''Doubt it''
OnPlayerUpdate can be very usefull.

Ex : avarage player ping 60~ he alt+tabs, returns with a 450~ ping, and you can kick him for download anuse

Since this section is about SA-MP itself, and not LVP, please open a topic in the right section if you have LVP related questions

But to answer your question, which is related to all servers:
SA-MP 0.2X is NOT compatible with ANY 0.2.2 version.
This includes the server versions, as well the client versions.

So update to 0.2X asap, since many servers, and mainly the bigger servers, are already running 0.2X
