UPDATE 1.3.694!

It is extremely difficult to create a fast and powerful game that does not lag behind. At Lawless Roleplay, we've always set ourselves the goal of becoming the gold standard for SA-MP Roleplay servers and this prevails in our mere 1 year of operation. In that time, we have completely shaken up the world of SA-MP Roleplay servers and you can see that with our unique innovations such as the miner job, lumberjack job, land system and many more. Whilst other servers lag at the Horizon by just introducing the miner or lumberjack jobs - today, we will raise the standard once again.

Our mission statement to you...
Lawless Roleplay is, and always, will be a community first and a game server second. We are dedicated to fostering an environment with a member-centric approach where all players have equal potential for in game success and community recognition.

Why play here?
Lawless Roleplay was originally founded on the principle that all players should rise or decline based on the actions of the person behind the player. We feel that success should be determined by a players actions and talents and not the whim of an administrative team. We have great code. We have great staff. We have great players. But most importantly we have a vigilant regard for your potential.

Is this a roleplay server?
We have worked to provide many in game tools for roleplay and it is absolutely encouraged however not required. We feel that any preferred mode of play that does not encroach on any other player’s enjoyment of the game is productive. Due to the harsh nature of game mode frequent player versus player violent interaction should be expected. However, this does not mean that players are allowed to kill other players for no reason.

Update 1.3.694 Overview

Double XP
Double experience points is enabled from Friday 21:30 GMT + 0 to Monday 21:30 GMT +0 so make the most of it now and pop in game.

Massive code overhaul

They say a painting is never actually done as art is both perfect and imperfect at every state of it’s being. Because this is an undeniable reality and because we here at Lawless always strive towards excellence and being the best, we have decided to go over our script an infinite times to make it the best possible. Long story short, a lot of things work better, faster, take up less resources which all eventually leads to a more enjoyable gaming experience. Hurray!


This is our biggest ever update. We have done over 130 revisions, more than 40, 000 lines of code has been reviewed and recreated using the latest techniques. Moreover, we have fixed and added over 900 features.

We have upgraded our MySQL and internal systems to the latest techniques and technologies to be sure that our players are having the best experience possible. Our latest script is more than 4 times faster than our old one and this was done by the provision of faster techniques and lots of memory leak fixes. This is the highlight of the update because it took more than half of our time - you will notice the speed difference.

Scuba diving job!

The beach is filling up with the abundant jellyfish, that girl you have been eyeing as she ran into the sea just ran out screaming “Eeew!” prior to her and her friends leaving. I don’t think they’re coming back any time soon! You have to do something about it and now you can do something about it! The government is hiring professional Scuba divers to dive into the deep blue to catch those evil jellyfishes before they make it to the coast. And they are sure paying well!

Head over to the Los Santos lighthouse for our latest job, scuba diver job. Unlike, other jobs, you don't need to sign up to it (/join) and it works quite simple like the sweeper job. Once you're on duty, you swim around collecting jelly fish which vary in size (affects worth) and then you bring it back to the shore and go off duty to get paid. However, there is a small chance of getting stung by the jelly fish and losing all your money! Whoa! And there is even a smaller chance to find a golden jelly fish and get your money doubled! Hooray!

Beach-body incoming!

It’s winter! After a good two weeks of way too much food it is time to shred off that winter belly and get your body beach ready and guess what! The gyms are open again! New weights, new punching bags, new spinning bicycles and treadmills. The fresh smell of leather seats combined with the aroma of sweat from the hardworking gym rats and bodybuilders inspires you to move and improve, row and grow, run and… you know!

New and improved anticheat

It is here. A brand new, revised and airtight anti-cheating system that allows us to maximize our “fair-play” policy within this community and fully implement a more enjoyable environment for each and every one of you. With the switch-up from sync-shooting to the classic lag-shooting, we’ve noticed a quite worrisome increase in health-hackers, aimbotters and other type of cheaters. But no more of that, finally.

New maps

We've added tons of new maps around Los Santos from a brand spanking new San Andreas Police Department interior to a sweet new exterior for the mechanic job which has been moved from Ocean Docks to Idlewood. We have plans to upgrade all of our interiors before Feb 2015 and you can contribute to this if you're a mapper by contacting me via [email protected].

Winter Madness!

Our old Christmas park has been added again with special minigames that let you win crazy prizes once you complete them. We'd be hosting contests, giveaways and parties here so check it out often!

I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank all the beta testers, senior players, members of administration, mappers, developers and everyone involved with this update on behalf of us - the players.

So join us and rise to power! It's time the lunatics prospered...
