SA-MP 0.3d?

Yep, you've read it right people. The SA-MP team is currently developing the next version, sa-mp 0.3d. D! This update isn't going to improve much of what already exists on SA-MP, but it will add these 2 MAJOR features that will take SA-MP to the next level:

-Internet Audio / Radio streams can now be enabled and disabled while player on servers. This means that for example: Typing /techno could then tune you into an internet radio station playing techno music. At least you wouldn't have to listen to the same old SA radio anymore!

-Objects that exist in GTA by default can now be removed or moved! This is simply great, and can bring in a whole new bunch of advantages and possibilities for mappers. Take for example: The main gate @ KACC or Area 51 could be removed and replaced with one that opens / closes. Entire buildings could be removed and replaced with new ones, making an entire city look different.

[SDU] will switch to 0.3d once a version of *censored* is confirmed to work with handling lines, or another mod such as Opened SAMP is for download.

[SDU] Server Comeback Announcement!



Long time no posts!

[SDU] was shut down in June due to financial issues with the server hostings, and it was a huge loss for entire SA:MP drifting community, leaving them without a stable place to play for quite some time. In recent months, [SDU]'s financial issues were solved and the administration team has dug up a lot of free time for the future; so yes, there is a very large possibility that [SDU] may be coming back soon.

Me and Vertex talked about it a few nights ago and he said he wouldn't mind paying for the host once more, and I will talk more with him about that. If the server ends up not being payed for, I will continue with running it anyways on my home PC / Server, 24/7 hours now that I've made a few PC upgrades.

Not much will be different from what it was before it went down for the first while. The same SDU script will be used, however you can expect to see many regular updates which will eventually lead to a complete overhaul, bringing in truckloads of new features and aiming at making [SDU] SA:MP's #1 server for all things DR1FT. I will be appointing an administration team upon launch and also looking to assemble new members for [SDU].

You heard correct! [SDU], which is effectively a branch of [TDSD], will be publicly recruiting with application forms and trials, looking for a diverse group of drifters who either have the required skills, or have the potential to learn. This also brings me to announce that one of the many planned major additions to the new [SDU] server will be a drifting school, run by the [SDU] team and administration.

You can expect to see an [SDU] Server Comeback Video to be uploaded on YouTube and posted here when we are ready to launch the server. Please stay tuned to this blog for all further news, and if you have your own blog feel free to add us on your Associates list! Code is on the side!

Peace!
