Talk:Server Manual
Proposed Addition
My proposed added section. Very rough draft, but would be helpful.
Client Checks
The mta server can be configured to disable the anti-cheat. It can also allow specific or all files to be modified (E.g. handling.cfg), and make sure clients are of a minimum version.
All of these settings are within the file 'mods/deathmatch/mtaserver.conf'.
If you want to turn off the anti-cheat, search for the following line:
<disableac></disableac>
MTA has multiple different anti-cheats which can be disabled, and as such the disableac setting is a comma separated setting. To disable anti-cheat #2, use: 2. To disable #2 and #3, use: 2,3.
If you want to force a minimum client version, search for the following line:
<minclientversion></minclientversion>
Accepted values look like: 1.0.4-9.01746.0. Paired together with verifyclientsettings, a value of 1.0.3-9.00000.0 will make sure that clients are new enough for the file check.
If you want to specify which modified files are disallowed, search for the following line:
<verifyclientsettings>-1</verifyclientsettings>
The value of this setting can be -1 (default), 0 (off), or the addition of the file flags in the table below. (E.g. to block just melee.dat and weapons.dat, you would add 16 and 1048576 )
