    backwards compatibility is mostly for server only why would we create a client that connects to a samp server? when we already have a great alternative, made exactly for this purpose?
  • r
    So you’re saying that openmp will add new features?
  • r
    The server already did. The client most certainly will too, yes.
  • r
    But again wouldn’t that destroy backwards compatibility
  • r
    No.
  • r
    By new features I mean e.g. custom weapons
  • r
    It's not as bad as you'd think, either ; right now we support 037 and DL clients, but obviously only DL clients have DL features
  • r
    So basically omp will stay like samp right?
  • q
    no
  • r
    Just trying to understand the hype about the new client if it won’t add any new features than vanilla samp
  • r
    Which part of "it will" is hard to understand for you exactly?
  • r
    But wouldn’t that split samp playerbase?
  • r
    I'm trying to understand why you forced us to repeat the same thing 10x already
  • r
    It already has a problem with sub clients
  • r
    OK, concretely?
  • r
    The same thing happened with leaked samp source people started creating their own clients like all the Russian ones
  • r
    My point is that if openmp decides to add new features it’ll lose backwards compatibility and thus force openmp client
  • r
    Somebody who doesn’t know about this project will simply download from sa-mp.com
  • r
    OK, and?
  • f
    Russians are already split from the rest of the community as far as I'm concerned because they only play on their own monolingual servers
  • r
    It’ll split the playerbase in half I guess that’s not what you want?
  • r
    How?
  • r
    Yeah true
  • r
    I think you're not even understanding what you're saying
  • r
    Why would it matter that eg I use open.mp client and someone else uses SAMP client, if we both play on my server, we're not "split" ???
  • r
    Not sure why you’re passive aggressive which part do you not understand
  • r
    What the fuck are you talking about exactly
  • d
    if(client.networktype == legacy) sendmessage("This version is not supported. Download the new client from open.mp/download") solved the problem lads thank me later
  • r
    New features = no backwards compatibility = playerbase splits
  • r
    What’s so hard to understand?
