How is it going now with the progress of Open Multiplayer for GTA San Andreas? GTA San Andreas is a good game, and the sa-mp has a very good and stable source engine, so it will be something good i believe, even better than sa-mp if its backward compatibility.
Would you be able to release it sooner if you have more developers on the engine? Or will it take similar time to release a beta version of Open.mp whether or not you get more developers?
However the game will be great,
I have a suggestion is that you put some adverts in the start of the screen, before the loading screen like in sa-mp, so you can gain money. Then you can pay some of the devloping cost.
This game/engine will attract many users. Believe me, everybody remembers sa-mp, plus this game engine has backward compatibility with the old sa-mp so it'll be a very good multiplayer game, gta sa is just awesome ;)
The open.mp website needs to be improved as well, so it'll be cool to browse it. If you need help with the website design i know a few websites where you could download themes for this, wordpress script is good as well if you post news and other stuff.
