    What is SARP, Roleplay and SAMP?



    Welcome to SARP this is an introduction on the server, roleplay and SAMP itself.


    What is SARP?
    This is SARP. It stands for "San Andreas Role Play" and it's a light - medium roleplay server. Perfect if you've never roleplayed before in your life or if you're a heavy roleplayer, we have some other heavy roleplayers. SARP is this community as a whole, including this website and the server.

    What is Roleplay?

    Roleplay is acting out a role as you would do in real life, but in-game. You can roleplay whatever you want, whenever you want as long as it's realistic. You can change your roleplay by changing skins and accents. You are not limited to one character. However, It's better to have separate accounts to maintain roleplay consistency for every character.

    What is SAMP?

    SAMP stands for San Andreas Multiplayer - that's different from these servers as it is the actual mod and you can join any SAMP server with it. There's a how to install guide below.


    How to install SAMP on Steam and Disk (torrent)

    1. Buy Grand Theft Auto San Andreas on Steam.
    2. Once it's installed, run it for a minute or two.

    5. Run SAMP install DOWNLOAD
    6. Choose your directory (usually: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GTA San Andreas)
    7. You should be able to play. If this doesn't work follow the alternate guide above.
    8. Click the orange tick at the top and paste in this IP: samp.gta-sarp.com:4500
    9. Press Play!

    When we advertise the server, should this be the page we link to? Or can someone else make a better one. Or should we just keep updating this one?

    A lot of it, yes. Two posts from official guides were copied over because there's no point of re-writing them.

    Nice one.

    oh and, don't use ''take my account as example'' while explaning the roleplay. Roleplay has nothing to do with your account

    Roleplay doesn't have anything to do with my account. You're right. But that's why I said as an example. Feel free to right another definition and I'll change it.

    Looks good enough for fresh players imo. You may also want to state why should they choose SARP over other servers.
