KCNR Moved!

Despite the crazy DDoS attacks we’ve been going through, KCNR has moved to server.lvcnr.net:7777.

By the way there was a rollback of about 11 hours with the move, sorry about that.

Version 18 – The cleanup

Version 18 is now complete. In version 18 we aimed to cleanup the entire server and make it as stable as can be. Minimised bugs and increased server stability. I must say that we MET this goal and the server is now way better than ever! Thank you all for your continual support at KCNR.

The war is coming [Community Round Up #3]

Hi everyone, enjoy this new video to see how the new Cyanide Pill feature works. It gets rid of those sad /kill spammers!

 

1. This is pretty cool.

One amazing portait

2. Edwardian VS Uncle Sam.

The war is coming soon.

3. Enmity’s Extremity has also declared war on KCNR. This is not good, not good at all.

4. I don’t know why chickens are trying to take over KCNR.. but this sound REALLY makes my ears hurt! http://www.cluckinbellhappychicken.com/

5. Corruption amongst cops is getting worse… will the entire Police Department get torn apart without a single bullet being fired!?

6. Thanks to Peter for updating the San Fierro Job and the Warehouse Robbery walkthroughs to a 2015 version.

7. Apparently, there’s aliens and space worlds in KCNR now. Be careful, the aliens might creep up on you.

THE GOLD RUSH CONTINUES!

Greetings, everyone! The winter will soon be over, but before we let that happen,  it’s time to hold the fifth annual Grand Theft Autolympics. With all the great sports from last winter and the inclusion of a brand new sport in Speed Skating, February’s biggest event will surely be spectacular.

Who will join the likes of India, United Kingdom, Pakistan and Bosnia & Herzegovina on the top of the ranking list? There’s always been dominating displays, dark horses and deadly combinations of dexterous competitors. Will it be you who prevails in the end? Tomorrow, on the 7th of February, starting at 8am, it’s time to see who’s the greatest.

Anyone can join!

SA-MP 0.3.7 in development (The Release Candidates have began!)

Forum update

We are going to attempt to update the forums again. We expect downtime of the forum to be less than 1 hour. Please bear with us while we are performing the upgrade. We will update this post once the upgrade is done or if we run into any issues.

UPDATE 1 (01:39AM GMT+1): We think it will last at least 2 hours at this moment.

Update 2 (02:06AM GMT+1): We are currently starting the real upgrade part locally. This should take about 30 minutes. After this we will update it on the server. This will take another 30 minutes we think. Please be patient.

Update 3 (02:27AM GMT+1): First part will take about 90 minutes instead if 30.

Update 4 (02:55AM GMT+1): Update seems to have gone well, we are now uploading the data. This will take around 30 minutes.

Update 5 (03:09AM GMT+1): Forums are back!

KCNR is shaping up! [Community Round Up #1]

Well, it seems like San Andreas Customs has once again upgraded their stock with reinforcements this time! Below is a picture that shows how these new reinforcements work.

Now at SAC, you may purchase 5 Armour upgrades, from levels 1-5. In the picture, the camper had no Armour upgrades and took 30 shots of an mp5 and you can see that it neared death from just 30 shots! Now look at the sultan, with a level 5 Armour upgrade taking 30 shots of mp5 ammo! DAMN that’s a massive improvement huh? Armour upgrades are worth it and San Andreas Customs welcomes you all to purchase this upgrade. It saves and loads just like any other SAC Modification. *note this armour upgrade only lowers BULLET damage and not collision damage*.

sa-mp-003

Oh, did I mention that you need score to unlock Armour upgrades? Yes! Each upgrade is unlocked with an achievement. 10000 score unlocks level 5 Armour upgrade, that’s all I’m saying!


Here I attempted to host a very cool low rider event, but sadly it died due to my internet slowing down dearly causing me to not see anything in-game but pure pause icons 🙁

sa-mp-000

The Halloween event is now officially over.

KCNR is on the look out for new admins! Over the past weeks of my inactivity, (I am now active again) I have noticed the decreased in admin activity in-game. This is not healthy. We will be experimenting over the next few weeks.

The KCNR map goes for a live beta test! Yipppie! Long awaited map feature is finally here! You may few the map by clicking here. Please report any bugs to Peter at his forum thread! There will be an official link on the website sooner or later when the beta test is over and it’s ready for the full release!

Version 18 is in full forced development! Great new things are coming to KCNR! You’ve already seen a few things implemented, SAC armour upgrades, improved Visual Contacts, Major crime system revamp, improved jail system and more! Right now I’m looking into how can I make cop vs criminal chases more interactive by using the new visual contact feature! Version 18 is heading down the right road with all those bugs squashed!

sa-mp-001

Just look at all those bug fixes and there are more to come!

Your refunds all will be processed, please stop spamming me about refunds ingame, on the forums and on IRC! The admin team are doing the best to get your stats back (Clothes may not be refunded, I’m sorry)! Especially with the lack of admins right now, it’s sorta hard!

In other news SA-MP 0.3z r2 has been released and this fixes issues with users with fairly new intel graphics card having troubles seeing health bars in SA-MP! If you have this issue, please update here!

I’ve noticed an increase in videos on Youtube over the past month, thanks guys! KCNR needs more advertising and we should all work on that as a community!


The hosted list is something KCNR lacked for a month or two, this decreased the player count for awhile, right now the hosted list is back and I can already see an increase in the player base. We are lacking donations here, not many people tend to see the need to donate. The price of the hosted list has risen. I paid for it with my own money, that’s ok. We’re not in a crises or anything. Just please remember to keep on donating to KCNR as we need your donations in order to continue running!
