LVP 2.94.8 is live now!

posted by Pedro on Saturday, December the 31st at 1:13 PM


Hey folks!

We've just updated to LVP 2.94.8, these are the most notable changes:

- Players will no longer be kicked for idling. However, while you're away from the keybord (/afk), stats, online hours, property earnings and tax will not be affected.
- We've added a new command: /paused. This command will display all the currently paused players.
- While you're paused your color will change to black and you'll see a cool textdraw informing how to get back in-game.
- We've fixed the issue where you return to the class selection after death.
- Properties which cost less than 100K are now shown on the radar to help out the new players.
- From now on new players connecting will be spawning in an infernus instead of random sport vehicles.
- The Christmas features are disabled.
- Stunt bonuses are disabled.

We've also attempted to solve the issue where the gamemode would crash a few times a day, a test fix is live right now. The gang issues are still being looked into.

On behalf of the entire Las Venturas Playground Staff, Development Team and Management: a happy new year!

LVP Christmas 2011 Event

Christmas 2011[/align]




Dear Players,

To celebrate the release of LVP 2.94 and Christmas 2011, we will be hosting a Christmas event this coming Friday, 23rd December 2011, at  7pm GMT (UK Time).

2 Christmas presents will be randomly spawned in the SA map.

The first player to find a Christmas present will win their own ingame house.
The second player to find the other present will win their own ingame car.

Houses are really cool. Features such as car, weapon and money storage are some of the possibilities as well custom interiors and other configuration settings.

Pictures say a thousand words:



Ingame cars are really cool. You can spawn a vehicle of your choice, at a location of your choice. You can customize the vehicle in any way you want in any of the mod shops and the mods will save. You can also give your vehicle a custom number plate and, should you wish to, can lock it so that you are the only player capable of entering it.

We hope to see you ingame @ 85.17.220.2:7777 on Friday 23rd December 2011 at 7pm GMT!
During this time, Snow will be enabled and Christmas songs will be playing on LVP Radio.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and all the best for 2012 on behalf of the LVP Management, Development and Mapping Team,

Jay
