After installing GTA:SA, download and install a multiplayer client:

Option 1: OPEN.MP (Community Supported)

Note: SA-MP Launcher lost updates & support in September 2023. OPEN.MP is a modern, community-maintained alternative.

Beginning Your Journey

When you enter the server, you’ll register an account. You’ll then spawn in Los Santos - a city ruled by corruption, gangs, and chaos.

Your fate depends on your actions. Rise above the law, or uphold it. The choice is yours.

Welcome to Lawless Roleplay,

Where lunatics prosper...
