Hello everyone, today we have a rare announcement for MTA. We are releasing 1.4 as a beta, which ordinarily doesn't happen. 1.4 still has bugs and needs some proper testing, so we are going to do a beta version so these issues can be fixed.

Note: Patch notes are currently incomplete as 1.4 had significant changes over years and documenting them all is time consuming.

Welcome to the news! Today we are releasing 1.3.4. In this patch we have introduced a few new features and fixed many bugs.

Of those new features includes the ability to play sound effects from the game in 3D or just through a players' speakers.

We have also included a source compiling and encryption option. This allows you to compile and encrypt your lua through MTA’s website. As of 1.3.4 this can be done at https://luac.mtasa.com/ API + Documentation at https://luac.mtasa.com/api/ This feature will be available for all future MTA versions.

Vehicle upgrades now check the model file as well as the list of supported upgrades so that it cannot crash with custom models. All vehicle spoilers are supported by all vehicles that support spoilers now and vehicle upgrades have been tidied up adding some missing/wrong entries.
