  1. Hello, For over a year now, we've used path.net as our game server network provider to mitigate DDOS attacks. This has been a largely successful choice, as within that time we've managed to fight off countless attacks (going even as high as 1Tb/s) without anyone noticing. Unfortunately, general stability of the network isn't that great and we're experiencing excess packet loss for the last few weeks, with the last few days being much more noticeable. While this would pass on its own as it has in the past, we chose to explore other competitive offerings that should bring the same level of protection but with more stability. We're switched to GCORE today to do just that. Since we're changing our network provider, the game server IP will change. It's important to: Make sure you have the server stored in favorites as server.ls-rp.com:7777, not via direct IP. You may need to wait for a bit for your DNS records to update. You can try flushing your DNS records manually. To avoid redownloading all the models on connect, rename our cache folder from 141.11.196.206.7777 to 185.29.166.210.7777 Cache folder is in your Documents, mine is in "C:\Users\Martin\Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\SAMP\cache" We'll keep the old IP attached for a few days, so a notice shows in the SA-MP server browser, to smoothen the transition. - Martin

  3. SAMP is super Niche amongst english speaking gamers & the roleplay scene is pretty niche too. Combining these two you're left with a community that has very limited growth potential. On top of that, being a fairly hardcore roleplay server (By todays standards atleast) it's very difficult for new players to adjust especially when there's a plethora of RP servers that don't encourage a realistic approach but rather a "Fun" & "Quirky" approach of "Roleplay whatever you want!". But, I do think there's a few USP's that SAMP & LSRP has that need to be capitalised on. 1) Easy accessibility. GTA SA is so easy to crack, it's basically free & virtually any computer nowadays can run SAMP at a more than stable frame rate, something that cannot be said for other roleplay games such as FIVEM, RAGE, G-Mod, ARMA etc. This is one of the only RP games that pretty much ANYBODY can run on ANY System and it's actually what made me play this back in 2015 for the first time, I had a piece of shit laptop and I always had a fascination for RP games but I couldn't run any of them, today with a high-end PC I still choose to play LSRP over any other RPing game and I think that this can be a massive selling point for the server. 2) The RP scene: The scene is growing, something I never would have thought would happen! Back in 2016/2017 I never thought that RP on GTA had even a chance of blowing because of how fucking nerdy it really is. But here we are, 2024 and GTA RP is on a steady incline, everyone wants to play it & there's massive communities built around RP, unfortunately it's all on GTA V, but as mentioned above, the accessibility to playing a modded GTA V server is limited to those with the correct hardware. IF there was ever a time for LSRP to swoop in, it'd definitely be NOW. 3) The Past: Someone has already mentioned this and I really think that someone needs to put on their big boy pants and fucking do it already. There's over 100,000 unique members with LSRP accounts, get that fucking email list and send out emails every update! Let people know that LSRP is back! I'm sure there's still thousands of people out there who just don't know that LSRP has made a comeback! This community is more than salvageable, there just needs to be an action plan put into place. We're struggling to maintain 200 players now and honestly at this rate by February next year we may struggle to keep the population above 100, It'd be a massive shame to see the community go out like that (Again) so I really do hope that steps will be taken in the right direction... And the FINAL point, the LSRP admins clearly are trying SOMETHING, they've recently created a "content creator" programme for players to submit content to their instagram in an effort to help promote the server, it's up to us to also help out in trying to uphold the PB not just the admins, they have lives just as much as we do, if we can all come together (lol) maybe we can make it happen.
