Settings

The settings page is quite simple to work with, just change whatever setting you want to change and the change will be applied instantly.

There is just one special case, where this is not true, when changing any settings that belongs to the original SA-MP launcher, GTA SA will require a restart. Those settings are called legacy Settings.

Restoring to default

As of now, this feature hasn't been implemented yet, but it will most likely be included in the next release.

Explanation of the single settings

General

Custom SA-MP Path

The SA-MP Path will tell the launcher where your San Andreas Multiplayer installation lies, the launcher needs that in order to launch SA-MP and change the SA-MP version if wanted by the user. This path will be automatically detected and may only have to be set manually if multiple SA-MP installations exist or if SA-MP couldn't be automatically detected.

Remember last view

On the left side of the application you see the menu bar, whenever clicking one of the menu items, another view opens. If this setting is enabled, on startup the client will automatically use the last view that has been used.

SA-MP
