Racing Essentials

Hello!

I want to present you a mod pack with Racing Essentials - created by various authors. These scripts are used on Racing Servers for many years, and some of them aren't published on MTA:SA Community Website. Everybody share them everywhere in the racing community, so I'll share them here for wider public too.

These scripts consist of:

- Older fixed / remastered Racing Scripts (such as: race_ghost)

- New scripts

- Clanwar / Tournament scripts

- & More!

Maps that will be posted here will be:

- New maps, that were NEVER published on any website (community.mtasa) etc.

- Existing maps, that were taken from community

- Brand new maps (made by me and some others)

Wait for more updates here, and If you would like to help out contributing to some mods - follow the mod pack and message me if you have any script modifications for me. I'll also post some announcements, regarding script modifications (what I would want, etc if I can't do it).

-Alfredo

August 1 BIG Map Pack Released!

Aug 1 2023 News

Hello everybody, long time no see!

Today i've decided to release a brand new big map pack - consisting of many maps from years 2011-2016 and also some new maps from this year. Download, installation and troubleshooting is below.

Installation

Put .zip files to your server Resources folder (example: server/mods/deathmatch/resources)
Put map folders to your server Resources folder (same example as for .zip files)
Some maps are very old, check if in a folder (or zip) if there's another archive / folder or not. If map folder has additional folder inside, open that second folder and then convert it to zip and put it to resources. Map files should contain meta.xml and .map files along with some MapEditor files.

Troubleshooting:

If map doesn't load and says that it needs 2 or more players to start, make sure you add more spawnpoints in the .map file, or additionally:

Open race_server.lua in Race gamemode folder (should be on resources/gamemodes/[Race]/Race - find and delete the following line (before, make a backup of the file just to be safe):

-- Check race can start ok
    if g_IgnoreSpawnCountProblems ~= res and not g_MapOptions.ghostmode then
        local numSpawnPoints = #map:getAll('spawnpoint')
        if getTotalPlayerCount() > numSpawnPoints then
            -- unload map xml
            map:unload()
            outputRace( (numSpawnPoints).." or less players are required to start '"..tostring(getResourceName(res)).."' if not using ghostmode" )
            return false
        end
    end

And now you'll be able to play maps with 1 spawnpoint only, make sure you also enable ghostmode on the server, to prevent players spawning on top of each other.
