Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas (MTA:SA) is a multiplayer mod ("modification") for the Microsoft Windows version of Rockstar North's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas that adds an otherwise absent online multiplayer component.
Although often referred to as a modification, Multi Theft Auto is based on code injection and hooking techniques whereby the game is manipulated without altering any original files supplied with the game. The software functions as a game engine that installs itself as an extension of the original game, adding core functionality such as networking and GUI rendering while exposing the original game's engine functionality through a scripting language.
Multi Theft Auto's latest release is for the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and is built upon a now open source game engine that has been in development for several years and is the only project that is still actively maintained. The engine provides users with all the necessary tools they need to create their own game modes and maps by exposing a large part of the original game functionality through a Lua scripting machine.
On Saturday, 22nd of August, Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas v1.0 was officially distributed as the first open source release. This release abandoned the now obsolete "Deathmatch" tag in the product name to emphasize on the versatility of the software. Gameplay functionality is solely provided by the scripting language, so users can choose or develop their own combination of scripts and other contents to customize and host their own type of game.

The next point release for our best mod to date is out: Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas 1.0.2.
One of our developers, ccw, did a tremendous job with resolving the most frequent problems and bugs from earlier releases. Major changes since the last update are fixes for a number of occasional crashes and assertions plus some improvements for our race gamemode, as part of the multitheftauto-resources project.
This release is of course fully compatible with the servers running on older versions (1.0 / 1.0.1), so there should be no problems with compatibility once you upgrade. Precompiled servers for Linux should be available shortly on Linux.mtasa.com and/or our GitHub download page.
As always, the full list of changes can be found in the Changelog on our repository, or in the download's description.

i think this is better then samp
can i play this with steam version
Yes, however you will have to find and download a working gtasa 1.0 executable (either for European or North American edition of the game) first. Once you have found it, you need to place it in your GTASA folder. Luckily, it will not overwrite any files as Steam uses a different executable name.
Meh,Even after the update my game crashes,even be4 it loads up a server
OMG 40 UPTADES (minus few uptades frm other games) AMAGADBIGGESTUPDATE
This mod makes me sad. Don't get me wrong, it looks like an awesome mod but i have the steam version of gta:sa so i really can't play this mod. have tried following the installation instructions for the steam version multiple times but it never seems to work. If one of the developers or players of this mod would simplify it for me it would be very much appreciated.
dude try to dl it from the internet or buy a copy(you already payed the money,i think theres no problem in it)=D
pm me if u will need a dl link
Steam users of GTASA should install a 1.0 no-cd into their steamapps GTASA installation directory. This will not overwrite any files,while still allowing MTASA to be installed.
The only reason I bought gta4 was because I lost gta:sa. If I still had it, I would download this mod.
Main advantages are:
- full integration into GTASA - you can join the server, search for one, start a server yourself or change settings directly from within the game
- much bigger possibilities - you can add custom models, vehicles and sounds to your server in a way that everyone will see them without the need of doing any modifications to their gtasa install
- better synchronisation - allows you for smoother gameplay
- more advanced scripting system - we use Lua as our scripting language which is easier to develop gamemodes and other scripts in; we have client-side scripts available which you can use for eg. drawing your own GUI for a gamemode or utility script; we offer much more scripting functions and events related with the gtasa world (eg. setting game speed); resources system
- sophisticated Map Editor, which gives you possibility to create your own maps with an ease, comes with a decent tutorial
- can provide various styles of gameplay (deathmatch, freeroaming, racing, roleplaying, logical-platform modes, ctf and more) - all within a single mod, you choose what do you want to play
- open-sourced, actively developed, with new testing mod builds available everyday, also opened to suggestions and contributions from the community
- ...plus more!
