MTA:SA error code

MTA:SA error CC80

MTA needs to leave the server before it can change the skin of its interface.

How to fix it

  1. Leave the server first

    MTA does not let you change Language or Skin while you are on a server. Press F8 (or ~) to open the console, type disconnect and press Enter. You go back to the main menu. You can also use Disconnect in MTA's main menu.

  2. Change it on the Interface tab

    In MTA's main menu, open Settings, then the Interface tab. Pick your language in the Language list, or a skin in the Skin list. Then press OK.

  3. Join the server again

    In the F8 console type reconnect and press Enter. It connects you to the server you were on before. On CIT you can also type connect s2.cit.gg 22003 in the F8 console.

  4. If MTA says DISCONNECT REQUIRED

    Only if MTA shows DISCONNECT REQUIRED after you change a setting.

    Some settings only change when you leave the server. MTA asks if you want to disconnect now. Choose Yes to disconnect now. If you choose No, the change waits until you disconnect.

  5. If even the default skin cannot load

    Only if MTA says the default skin could not be loaded either.

    If only the skin you chose fails, MTA uses the default skin by itself. If the default skin also fails, MTA's own message says to reinstall MTA.

These are the steps of the guide Change MTA's language or skin: Please disconnect before changing language.

Still not fixed? Copy the whole message, not only the code, and check your log in the Fix tool. It is read on your own computer.

About this code

MTA's own client shows a CC code when something fails before or during a connection: the address, the nickname, a module it could not load, or the connection itself. MTA's own documentation gives CC80 as Disconnect before reskinning.
