How's your brain working out for you? i didn't come with any attacks, all i saw was some guy calling everyone a failure for submitting their opinion on a decision taken by no means and in a short notice, We can all read that it will be added into later versions i even quoted it myself but you seem to be in need of glasses, "People don't want to wait for it" NO ONE was warned about this, i paused my work on 0.3.7 and the updates for the 0.3.8 update and added interiors all over the fucking map and for what? i realize the samp team works hard, and they get paid for it, we pay for it, it's not like they're doing us a free favor, not that i don't appreciate the work in fact i love it, what i don't like is how you're sticking up and being an angry crazy man to everyone instead of saying what you had respectively.

No-one has been working harder on the update than Kalcor and the sa-mp team... Everyone who's making out that their coding effort for gamemodes is for nothing, are literally cutting their nose off to spite their face... After all....


IT'S BEING ADDED LATER..........


But it's fine... If anyone is bailing out and wants to throw their code out, then by all means, PM me with the code, and I'll take it off your hands if you're so mad... And being that people will throw it away at this 'state' of the 'conversation' then I won't be paying for it either...


Seriously, you don't understand development if you don't understand branch mechanics... What you see on peoples 'releases' in github, could honestly have 10-20 branches... You only see one.


Really though, cut the attacks and the insults, as you are simply showing yourself to also be immature and unable to handle having a civil discussion, or even a debate...


I stand by my statements 110%, as I know what I'm saying.
Really sad that loads of users don't know how to branch, and that they whine and complain when one of the prerequisites (i.e. 0.3. is not coming through.

Also happens when they create a large feature and bugfix at the same time, a hell to work with.

I for one am glad that I put all my 0.3.8 work on different branches aptly named 0.3.8-RC1/models-n-shit and 0.3.8-RC4/redirect-downloads.

Well, I have two main points and I'd love to hear some answers from somebody on the first one.

Compatibility issues. Will players with the 0.3.7-DL client still be able to play on vanilla 0.3.7 servers? Backwards compatibility is essential as smaller servers will 100% be hurt by splitting the community. If it's not backwards compatible it poses a huge issue in that regard. I'd rather no DL version than splitting the community up like that.

Other is the reasoning, I would have accepted any reason, even saying too much work and being lazy, I would have been a-okay even if it would have been silly. But lack of interest? Is it the lack of initiative from developers to help with testing or what is the reason for declaring that most servers don't want this feature? I am without a shadow of doubt positive that most servers would instantly use these features - everyone from Freeroam to RP to some niche servers benefit from these features and it's not like them existing hurt the developers. The point I'm trying to make is that I think your environment and the developers that surround you may have had more influence on this decision. I know that developers here (non-English, servers of all sizes - from very few players, to hundreds) were eager to implement the new features, everyone was hyped. The reason they weren't vocal is because this forum is mostly English and that is not their target audience and they don't really have anything to participate in the community with.


A shame but as long as there aren't any client compatibility issues, it will be fine and everyone will be waiting on your new releases, Kalcor and Beta Testers.
Good luck and try not to linger too much on the hate that will probably be expressed here in the following days.

It'd be a damned shame if 0.3.7-DL players couldn't connect to 0.3.7-R2 servers.

Shitty engines like BYOND maintain backwards and even forwards compatibility, 510 players can connect to 511 servers.

I never called anyone a failure... I suggest you read what I typed out properly, before simply going off thinking you read what you want to read.

The failure here is that people are basing their servers on a RELEASE CANDIDATE that can, and has, been pulled from production, expecting it to be carried through with.

The next failure is the one to understand that these features are being added in at a later date.

The attacks are you coming in and calling names, simply basing 30% of your post on cursewords and insults rather than actually trying to even understand the posts concerned.

That's entirely your own problem, after all, we used to use Windows RCs, and many of those got turfed, but we didn't see this sort of bullshit reaction from general users on the MS forums.


Maybe that's because they're not users, but actual people who understand how development cycles ACTUALLY work, and understand that RELEASE CANDIDATES ARE JUST CANDIDATES... THEY ARE NOT RELEASES, THUS SHOULDN'T BE USED ON LIVE SERVERS, NOR RELIED ON TO BE RELEASED AT ALL.



Maybe, just maybe you'll learn that for next time but I somehow doubt you'll be around to witness it.

I wouldn't think that wouldn't be an option... After all, we did have a time where the versions people use are out of sync, but still work, so this could easily be a good idea for Kalcor to actually look into.

The only question is really what features got split to what, and what do they share. By ideals, the 0.3.8 would literally just be renamed to 0.3.7-DL, and the 0.3.7 current simply has some of those basic features added from the 0.3.8.

Then that would be only the DL version has the download feature, but they would share all the others, and hence, this should be possible in some sense.

I see the same things happening with players, I have had multiple players say "but 0.3.8 has been released" and I had to keep telling them basically the same story.

It is like people don't know how to branch and don't know how release cycles work.

True, but keep in mind all those bug fixes in the DL version can't come into the 0.3.7, since 0.3.7 is already released. As i see a lot of people saying that they will also be in 0.3.7, but if that happens, your versioning is not correct anymore.

If it is gonna be a feature merged into the main updates, then what is the point?

Also as I see there isn't any lack, just that most of the servers stay in the development version while the RC lasts and only release their updates for the new 0.3.8 when it is ready with a proper release, not RC.

Didn't they write that the -DL version will only have the DL and custom models code?

This is correct, I myself had code written for the 0.3.8 release staged and even have a virtualhost to download custom content from online already.

And I know that TommyB was also developing a shitton of code and features for 0.3.8.

Think before you post, that sounded like a statement to me, if you make a shit comment i won't respond back with a lovely one, i have every right to be angry at this as my work was paused (work that i paid for), and you came at me calling my work a failure. You don't know me nor do you know my work "psychic"

R3? R4?

0.3.7 isn't just 0.3.7... It's got revisions.


The versioning is perfectly fine, and this HAS occurred before. 0.2.5 was a dev version that was canceled, and all of those features got added over time.

I didn't say they were failures, I said they had their failures... Don't try call out a native English speaker, if you can't understand English.

RC is not a release, so by spending your time working on it, don't be all upset like a mad rager that it got cancelled.


And as above... 0.2.5 got cancelled, all it's features were added to the next versions.

I was really expecting 0.3.8, SAD!

Probably, Kalcor have a good reason to stop the 0.3.8 version

Guys If your servers aren't good enough don't blame it on kalcor. xD

A bit disappointing, let's hope that a successful update again, there are quite a few scripters who were with gamemodes 0.3.8 in progress

Please reconsider Kalcor, because this is really sad.
