The idea of co-op was also scrapped during this time, due to technical limitations, and also the disappointing feedback received from the once eager community, and eventually kyeman officially rejoined the team and took charge of proceedings again.

He didn't announce it as a comeback, rather that he would just be helping with any difficulties the team had to ensure work on his codebase carried on, and to keep the faith within the community. He handed over all the existing work so far to the 2nd main coder, spooky, who took control of development work and rebranded the project's name to GTA:Multiplayer ( GTA:M) to signify the new change in management.Īround a month later, kyeman had sorted out his personal life and decided to start helping out the team with a few things. On Skyeman, the lead coder and the head of the team, left in the middle of the Co-Op debate due to work commitments making it impossible for him to progress on the mod. With a large project such as this one, which requires community backing, things did not look well. It was a very novel idea, but it was widely rejected by the community and the new forums at GTANet where filled with hate towards the SA:MP development team, no matter how much the team tried to promote the idea. Their idea was that you would be able to play much like single player - with pedestrians, cops chasing you, and following the ever changing storyline - but with 5 of your friends doing it with you.

All was going as it would have expected, until something unexpected and un-welcomed by the community happened: the Development team decided that, to keep San Andreas the way it was meant to be played, that the mod would have a total shift in development path - instead of having a Multiplayer supporting a large number of players in a Deathmatch style, they would instead change it entirely to a Co-Op style mod supporting 6 players.

Once San Andreas had been released for the PC on work continued in the same way as it did for VC:MP - by working away in private and periodically releasing screenshots and videos on their website, and answering peoples questions via their forums (which eventually changed from their small hosting to a subforum on the largest GTA community, GTANet/ GTA Forums, which also hosted the IRC channel). This source has now been used by another community member to progress with VC:MP as the main team work on SA:MP.

Offering preview videos and screenshots showing the status of the development work that was being done quickly gained the mod a large fanbase within the GTA community, with its small forums attracting approximately 120 users before it switched to a new home.Īfter a couple of public beta tests gathering an extremely high amount of interest (so high that long waits were common to get a slot on the beta servers) VC:MP was finally released to a warm reception and has since progressed from v0.1 to v0.1d, with an open-source code release in the progress. The team consisted of some well known members of the GTA modding community, and was led by kyeman - a prominent figure in the GTA Modding community. It was decided that VC:MP would be worked on as a codebase for SA:MP, due to the fact the upcoming San Andreas game was not released at the time the team started working. San Andreas Multiplayer started life as a multiplayer modification for GTA Vice City, dubbed Vice City Multiplayer ( VC:MP) towards the start of April, 2005.
