SA:MP has been stuck in limbo for years, with no updates and plenty of workarounds just to keep things running. open.mp changes that—it's a full rewrite that fixes long-standing issues, improves scripting, and removes old limits while keeping your existing code working. But what does that actually mean for you? Let's break it down.
It's finally here! 🎉 After years of development, rewrites, and challenges, we're excited to introduce Release Candidate 1 (RC1) of the open.mp server. This marks a major step towards our official 1.0 release, bringing significant updates, features, and improvements.
We've just released open.mp server beta 9, bringing major improvements, fixes, and the highly anticipated SA:MP 0.3DL support! This update includes new features, better plugin compatibility, and enhanced server configuration options.
After years of development, experimentation, and a full rewrite, open.mp is reaching a major milestone! We're launching our first semi-public beta testing program and working on something huge—cross-play support across different versions of GTA San Andreas.
