Could you indicate what else will be removed that A.Cole contributed towards?

It seems gangzones and textdraws were also made by Alex Cole. Now let's remove everything... in order to just amuse the ego or what? The only system that is worth it to be cut out (and I agree with DartfoL) is the class system, which use really few people, but even in that case it is better to optionally disable such systems if it's not a new branch 0.4 which could loss backward compatibility. Menus are pretty secondary feature, but still used by some projects. Skins choice are often made via menu because it doesn't block the center of the screen and can be placed anywhere you want.

Your sphere of influence is very minute. I wouldn't risk being branded a troll if I was you. If you were reading the thread, you would understand Kalcor is not behind the idea of an auto-updater/downloader.

Nowadays SA-MP version have rich functional to implement gamemodes' own class/skin selection system, and native selection system only causes a problems. Well, some functions like DespawnPlayer need to be added, also replace OnPlayerRequestClass with OnPlayerInitialized (because 1'st call of OnPlayerRequestClass means that player fully connected to the server). And yes, backward compability with all existing scripts will be broken, but will be SA-MP sticked to the old system all along?

Yes, class selection is very annoying.

I would also like to ask if the master lists services agreement has been updated to take the following into account?

I know there is a server on 0.3.DL which has implemented the map from Bully, a game by Rockstar. Are other people free to do this (Implement the map in SA-MP) themselves without repercussions?

There are servers that have custom models and new skins, but they don't want other servers having access to them. So you're fine with me adding new skins and new objects, but when it comes time to contribute something back, nothing. Thus the failure of DL.

He wrote the first cut of the textdraw system, based on text_draw scm. That was replaced by SA-MP 0.2.2.
He wrote the gangzone system. That hasn't been changed since he commit it.
He wrote CallRemoteFunction/CallLocalFunction. I don't ever use these, but some command processors do.

Do you mean CallRemoteFunction and CallLocalFunction will be removed? That will ruin all modular gamemodes...

I hope you intend to keep the gangzones in SA-MP, my gamemode uses them a lot and this feature cannot be substituted. If they were removed, I would have to stay on 0.3.7 probably.

[Kalcor]

I'm only removing CreateMenu for now.

Make it possible in 03DL R2 to replace the gangzone with a picture so that you can create an artificial map on the radar.

Dude if you remove half of those (Y) features will literally break sa-mp.

Some command processors? Almost all use that.

E.G

SetTimerEx ? Every single script?
CallLocalFunction?
SendPlayerMessage?
ForceClassSelection?
Race checkpoints?
Virtual Worlds?
Per player objects Streamer?

If Incognito and Zeex can stay by SA-MP's side for so long Kalcor, you can too. https://github.com/samp-incognito/sa...commits/master

I think you should consider NiCe as a beta or atleast listen to him if you won't listen to us. He has the best and most promising SA-MP server. His server is literally filled with CreateMenus because his server is single player based and he isn't complaining to you because he works constantly everyday and he can probably change all his menus in a week due to his motivation but you need to look at this guy's dedication, https://www.gta-multiplayer.cz/sk/topic/5855/?page=122

Doing all this might cause more harm than anything...

Delete is quicker than adding, but what will be newer in 0.3.9? So that the owners of the servers wanted to lose compatibility and use 0.3.9

When are you planning to make an analogue of CreateMenu so that it can be placed on the left of the screen and so that it does not interfere with the review when choosing a skin and when spectating for players?

I was limited by only 12 rows could have been effectively displayed with CreateMenu, thus two years ago I've created my own script using TextDraws, which enables using any number of rows, as the menu is scrollable. I might release the script so servers using CreateMenu can keep using the menus.

I thank Kalcor for clarifying his current position on removing certain features from SA-MP. However, unfortunately I see that there will also be another split in the playerbase with players being able to choose to play on 0.3.7, 0.3.DL or 0.3.9 servers. I think the effects will be very noticeable if there cross-compatability is not ensured.

Could 0.3.DL ever see custom weapons being added in the future? I know a lot of 3D artists who would instantly release a large amount of weapon mods on these forums if custom weapons were to be a feature.

Looks damn cool, I hope Kalcor will definitely add it.

Y Less hasn't contributed to SA-MP since 2007 (0.2). There's a history behind everything you listed.

I'll have to make the determination what needs to be removed or redesigned. I wouldn't credit everything you listed to Y Less.

edit:

I think the reason something like this comes up is because Y Less and co are going to try and justify stealing everything from sa-mp based on a few contributions 11 years ago, which is why his contributions need to be removed.
