Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas

Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas for Windows is a free multiplayer modification for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, one of the best-known games of the series.

The PC version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas has no online mode, so its large world of Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas was originally made for a single player.

Multi Theft Auto adds exactly this: it turns the game into an online platform where you can play with friends and people from around the world on thousands of public servers.

Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas allows you to enjoy multiplayer gaming in the expansive GTA universe for free.

Servers run their own game modes, so the same client is used for shooting and team modes, racing, roleplay, zombie survival, freeroam and many other types of play.

Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas for Windows requires an original copy of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas installed on the PC; the multiplayer client is installed on top of the game.

The other people you see on a server are real players and not computer-generated characters, which makes every match, race or roleplay session different.

Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas for Windows is free, and it is open source software, so anyone can contribute to its development.

If you enjoy the roleplay side of gaming, Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas for Windows provides a powerful user interface system for roleplay servers.

It makes tasks that would otherwise seem tricky or complex much easier to handle in the game.

With the "Race Mode" feature, you can race anyone around the world with hundreds of tracks based around the state of San Andreas.

Players who like to sneak up on others in the dark can try the popular "Stealth" mode, one of the classic game modes of the project.

You may think of something that you would change or add to the game while playing, and this is made possible with a map editor and an easy-to-use Lua scripting system.

Accuracy of other players' movements has always been a weak point of online Grand Theft Auto, and Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas for Windows puts a strong focus on synchronization.

Damage is synchronized in detail as well, so shots can remove the limbs of another player's character one by one.

The synchronization code keeps being improved in new releases of the client and the server.

Playing online is not only about the game itself: the project runs a forum where you can get support, ask for help with scripting or chat with other players, and a community site for game modes and maps created by its members.

The main menu gives quick access to the server browser, quick connect, hosting your own game, the map editor and the settings. Separate installers are offered for Windows 10 and later and for Windows 7 and 8.x.
