Can't see HP/Armor Bars

[###]

I posted this a loooong time ago, and I never got the answer for it - but I can't see HP or armor bars ontop of peoples' heads.

I don't know if this helps - but I have the Steam version of San Andreas.
And before this is an "answer" - no I do not have any mods that would have an effect on this as I have never been able to see them since I started playing SAMP.

How do I get it so that they can appear?

Try reinstalling it, or best solution download illegal gta :D you will be able to see everything + you will be able to install mods as much as you want

I've uninstalled for SAMP + San Andreas 50+ times.
I am looking for a way that doesn't involve the illegal GTA (if there is).

Did you try pressing F7?

Lol yes.

I googled it,
1.try installing gta in another directory,
2.update DirectX to higher or equal to 9,
3.Update video card,
4.Make sure that 'd3d9.dll' is not in root directory of GTA San Andreas try this too.
5.Try disabling and enabling health bar in Options.
6.Or try to use another resolution.
7.Go into the GTA escape menu and check if the HUD is enabled.(Make sure you have HUD: blips & Map in Your Options Settings )


8.Compatibility tab for windows 8 (google search or youtube it)
open gta_sa.exe properties
compatibility
tick "disable desktop themes"
tick "disable desktop composition"
tick "run as administrator"
apply
ok

9.Try reinstalling windows
10.You are maybe missing some files.

And tell me please your windows version sometimes on windows 8,-8,1

Just reinstall your game.

Are you using a hud mod? it doesn't shows health & armor bars mostly.

It didn't work before I had HUD mods


Just reinstall your game.

Like I said, I've reinstalled it multiple times.

Are you reinstalling the game in same folder again and again? if yes then try to install it in a different folder.

[Chris_Lacoste]

### I told you 10 options.
Btw tell me your windows version

So I tried uninstalling it reinstalling it in a different folder disabling all of my mods/deleting them video card is up to date d3d9 is not in my directory DirectX is over 9

I had the same problem, I upgraded my PC with a few drivers and it when I logged in game, I got the same problem, no hp/armor bars. I had to re-install windows because of some other shit ( not because of samp ), and it appeared somehow lol. You'll have to downgrade your PC, like removing a few drivers which I don't recommend you, also I heard windows 8 is having that problem, so I suggest you to try with google or ask someone who has windows 8.

Could be a problem with an old mod so delete you virtual store located at C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\
This works for me when old mods seem to show up after uninstalling.

Well now..

Problem is windows 8.1 becuase when I checked other threads about this they said it's because of windows version install other version or try this,right click on gta.exe>properties>Compatibility>Than run this program in compatibility mode for windows 98 or try everything :D

[Dirk]

The illegal copy of GTA SA is a clone of the disk version without working radios which can be fixed in one download; so i'd suggest that. I doubt it's anything to do with being Windows 8.1 as I used to run from that.

Legit answer. Try that ^

Pending player 24 hours.

[DeLiveR]

I belive that the problem is you having a windows 8 (Am I right you do?)
Anyway, you should try downgrading it to a windows 7 I suggest, because I do not know anything else that could have help you

I tried running it on all versions and they all do not execute it except the one i run it with.

Not Windows 8. My desktop runs 8 and it works fine.

[Dirk]

Did you try a CD/cracked copy?

That's the only to work SAMP with it - getting a cracked copy of San Andreas Singleplayer.

[Illuminati]

Have you updated your windows or anything BIG in your PC before this happened?

Because from what i know if you have illegal gta san andreas and do so your gta WILL get fucked somehow, i can give you a link of the original, i mean the real and original gta san andreas, you need uTorrent, do you want it?

[Arash]

Are you on windows 8? I have had this problem ever
since I got a new laptop with windows 8 on it and I could never fix it. That's why I can't deal with health hackers -.-

[Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye II.]

Get a mod it may fix it.

Yeah I got uTorrent - can you send me the link?

Lol which mod? I've had shit tons of new HUD mods and none of them have had the bars in it, so that's not the case.

I'm having this issue. It doesn't really affect my roleplay time nor anything. Unless of course you spend your whole time in Paintball or DM'ing someone.

You're gonna have to downgrade it or update your drivers to a more compatible hardware according to the game requirements. If not, you simply have to go with it.

[Dustin Keys]

I have this problem on my laptop and I also know Martin has this same problem which makes it a pain to deal with health hackers as admins.

- The problem isn't windows 8 or any other compatibility mode. ( I have windows 7 on both my computers and it works on one but not the other. )
- The problem was not resolved by updating directx. ( It's been updated )
- The problem is not being caused by some .dll file in the directory. (wat)


So, if you would be kind enough, if you don't know the answer then don't post. Quit suggesting the same things over and over again even after he said it isn't working. I appreciate you telling us to go to google and ask there. Yes, you think I haven't thought of that on his/their/my own? Again, I'm not trying to be mean but the things that are being suggested are unrelated and are suggested over and over again.

Sorry this isn't helpful.

Maby remove a mod.

[Zangetsu]

Me and my friend are having the same problem.. Surprise is he has windows 7...

[###]

So, instead of people saying they're having this problem - can we get someone to actually solve this?

I don't have to downgrade to Windows 7..

Is it my Steam?

[Zangetsu]

Well I did not had this problem before and i was using windows 8... I'm not sure what i did to make this problem pop
