Information:
SAMPFUNCS(abbreviated SF) is a mod, created and maintained by FYP, that expands the CLEO 4 library and adds extended support for SA-MP related functions.
Beside CLEO, it also supports the creations of plugins(.sf) in C++ using the API provided.
SAMPFUNCS is only compatible with the current SA-MP version at release time.

Installation:
sf_5_X_X_bin.zip : contains the main mod.
- Copy "SAMPFUNCS.asi" into your San Andreas folder.
- Run the game once to allow it to create the necessary files(SAMPFUNCS folder and SAMPFUNCS.ini)
This happens if you have your game installed on the windows partition and have UAC on.
Those files will be created in your x:\users\<your user>\appdata\local\VirtualStore\<path>.
You can either copy the files from there to your GTA folder, or run the game as admin once.

For developers:
sf_5_X_X_sdk.zip : contains both the dev. files for CLEO and C++ API.
- Copy all files from the "SB data" to "/Sanny Builder 3/data/sa".
- SFPlugin.zip contains the SF API documentation and solution for plugin example.

Requirements:
- CLEO 4
- gta_sa.exe 1.0 US
- SAMP 0.3.7 R1

Check THIS LINK  if you want to keep SAMPFUNCS alive, and updated for upcoming SA-MP versions.
Page is in russian, so either use google translate, or ask your local russian to translate.

Later edit: translation by our rezidentura russian spy @supahdupahnubah

The translation:

As you could notice, there have been no updates to SAMPFUNCS for a long time, and the thread[blasthack forum thread] is locked because obviously the project is abandoned. A couple days ago a RC build of 0.3.8 SAMP came out, so it means SAMPFUNCS should be updated as well. But the thing is - previous updates were motivated only because of wish and interest, the whole project were mostly developed by me (FYP) and I currently have no motivation on continuing the development. There were some attempts on finding someone who's ready to develop SF in the future. It succeeded, okay, but those guys didn't want to go on and work on it. (and I do understand them)
And just before you start offer me to make it opensource : I can't publish the code as is because it's horrible, and I still need to put lots of effort just to support it. And if I'll still publish it despite those excuses I told you about - people will simply copy and forget about it.
However SF needs to be Improved, and you still need the SF, right?

So if we will get 30k rubles (bouta 500$) I'll promise you :
  • Open the thread and accept all the suggestions
  • Rewrite the whole code and make a good SF C/C++ API
  • Fix knows bugs and implement planned features
  • Update it for 0.3.8 SAMP (or even better - make it version-free)
  • And, probably, make it opensource
Donate da shiet here : http://www.donationalerts.ru/r/465950h
(Warning! The donation is voluntary, you don't pay me for the work)

Current 0.3.7 SF download counter is 117337 users, let's see how much people really need the SF. You're gonna carry that weight.

Note from me[supahdupahnubah] - don't know if it's necessary to translate it, just doing my best
Google translate have been improved lately (in case of Russian -> English translation), but there's still some sentences and words that being translated incorrectly
