Hi there! I'm new here and I want to ask you something. Can I run this multiplayer support mod without any lagg? Here's my hardware configuration:
CPU: Pentium3 550Mhz
GPU: nVIDIA Riva TNT2 Model64 with 16Mbt
RAM: 256Mbt
OS: Windows 2000 Professional Service Pack 1

Here's my net speed:

well looking at your pc, that is minimum specs for GTA3. As for your internet that seems fine. does GTA3 run smoothly in single player?

[Dobi]

Well it haves some lagg. But this lagg is not so bad to be inpossible to play the game. The lagg is very little. And it's not makin' the game annoing.

i SUGGEST:
go to ebay.com
find a CHEAP ASS COMPUTER with these minimum specs:
amd 2800+
nvidia 6600 GT (or higher)
512 ram.

this would make your game sun smoothly, and perfectly, and cost you no more than around £150/$300/€225 (estimated)
it realy is worth the money, as you will find yourself being able to play A LOT more games.

Have you ever played MTA on this machine? If that was ok then LU should be too.

Single player lag can be a bit of a problem. In multiplayer this lag could clear up (Due to the game not having to process AI and stuff) but it could also get worse. If your game lags then you will lag remotely too (even with a very low ping)

I will see if i have a similar spec machine lying around somewhere (i think i have) to test on. Although, it has been tested on a 900MHz AMD Athlon, 256MB Ram, ATi Radeon 7000 graphics card and although it worked, text wasn't visible and graphics corruption appeared after playing for about 15mins so your machine may be worse.

Yes, I played MTA. I used it for GTA3 and VC both. On VC the lagg was just killing me. On GTA3 the things were way too good, but they banned me in many GTA3-MTA servers for laggin' the game. And the graphics were lookin' very good and clear. There was no problem with the graphics. Only with the damn speed. My GTA3 settings are:
resolution 640x480x16
draw distance 3
wide screen on
subtitles on
frame sync off
frame limiter off
trails off

Well try it when L-U comes out and if it hack get a new PC or upgrade it part by part but in your case buy a complete new one. Cause you will have way moore fun when playing at a better screen and PC

You can overclock your graphic card and processor. Its best way:P. Im overclocked my old PC and GTA3, VC ad stupid(for me)SA are work cool on geforce 2mx(xD)64mb

[Dobi]

Stoku, my CPU is tunned on maximum. And even on this maximum the speed is 550Mhz. And how I can tune nVIDIA TNT2 video card?
