(Rantish)So I fully Retired from Gta3. Tired of the hackers, server crashers etc.
Then began thinking i shouldn't waste my knowledge. So i will make this my last try.
(Main)
I want to create a VCMP server (will be rpg) What do i need to know that i already know with Liberty Unleashed.
Am i still able to create my own base script with dofile. are there client scripts( for bind keys etc) hashes, GUI, In general what do i need to know??
Grab the server files and necessary plugins from here (http://forum.vc-mp.org/?topic=870.0) and have a look at the functions on the wiki (http://wiki.vc-mp.org/wiki/Scripting_Resources). It should be pretty similar to all that LU has.
You can find plenty of example scripts in this board (http://forum.vc-mp.org/?board=11.0) to give you an idea of how to make a gamemode.
Note that unlike LU, VC:MP does not support clientside scripts nor GUI but you should be able to make something close to it using sprites and textdraws.
Thanks Murdock,I will look into script releases, I want to see if Juppi created the /cam to view the world/Pos counter etc, if so there has to be something interesting inside the scripts for moving around.
I want to Create my own work.
Seems like fun. Cant wait to help others in script help

any examples that you know of?
Also;
Thanks for the Response! Kudos !!!
Juppi's Free Cam script (http://forum.vc-mp.org/?topic=918.msg5903#msg5903) from LU ported in VCMP. One of the most useful script because it helped me in my Map Editor so Kuddos to him.
Skipping to say anything on textdraws and sprites :)

Thank you everyone for making me feel welcome on my journey of starting all over again,Last Question,..
How do you LAN test your server for bugs or errors/syncing things between players in scripts? I do not have to port forward to test do I?
Unable to..
Ps. Running Windows Experience { (Professional) Business Edition (XP) } so no clue if there will be any issues..

You can run the server on your local machine and join it by adding localhost:port to your favorites(I guess you already knew that :) )
If a feature requires more than one player to test, you can join the server multiple times from the same machine:

Better way:
1. Press Win key + R key
2. Type "%appdata%\vcmp\04beta" without quotes
3. open vcmp_config.txt and change game_windowed from 0 to 1
Alternative way:
1. Open vcmp
2. Type /setconfig game_windowed 1

LOL!! i have been using this http://www.fileplanet.com/198137/190000/fileinfo/D3DWindower-English-version/ for years and on VCMP and LU, due to i prefer the settings more. I can go on single player and the screen will adjust as i change the settings, Allowing me to get the perfect setup. Thank you! Just changed to Window mode, Also found the port ID for LAN setup..

No need for all of that, just press ALT+ENTER

Doesn't work if you don't have game_windoed 1. At least for me. It always starts in full screen and I window it with CTRL+ENTER but it won't work unless I have that config option to 1.

Yea you're right, needs to have game_windowed 1 set in the config.
After setting it the first time to 1 you'll never need to change it again though since ALT+ENTER toggles between fullscreen (bordeless window) and windowed.
