How To Connect To Your SA-MP Server

Here is how you can join your GTA San Andreas multiplayer server.

What you needWhy
GTA San Andreas for PCThe multiplayer client runs on top of the game
The free open.mp launcher or the SA-MP 0.3.7 / 0.3.DL clientIt adds multiplayer, and the launcher has the server list

Multiplayer needs GTA San Andreas version 1.0. The Steam and Rockstar Launcher versions are newer, so they need downgrading to 1.0 first.

Connecting With the IP Address

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    Copy the server IP address and port from the Overview page, for example 123.45.67.89:7777.
  3. 3
    Open the open.mp launcher or SA-MP client and add a server, pasting the IP address and port.
  4. 4
    Select your server in the list and click Play or Connect. If you set a server password, enter it when asked.

Finding Your Server in the open.mp Launcher

Your server also lists itself in the open.mp server list. In the open.mp launcher, search for your server name in the Internet tab. It can take a few minutes for a new server to appear.

The old SA-MP client's server browser no longer works, so with that client, connect with the IP address instead.
