I know this is a common error that people get, but I have vorbisfile.dll in my gta sa directory and I just have to copy and paste it to gta_sa.exe to run the game. However, I want to run 3d analyze and I can't because vorbisfile.dll is missing. I tried using ILmerge utility to merge vorbisfile.dll into gta_sa.exe permanently but I always have an error. What else can I do?

[HELP] vorbisfille.dll is missing

If you're using external tools (3d analyze?) that need vorbisfile or other DLLs, the you might need to copy the DLLs into the same directory as the exe of those tools. "ILmerge" appears to be made for Net Framework modules, which the the game is not. Generally, if a program requests a DLL and I don't know where to put it, I would use Sysinternals Filemon (or Process Monitor) to log the path(s) where the DLLs are searched for in, and put them there. Maybe try running game & tools from a directory outside Program Files.
I downloaded Process Monitor and it's pretty confusing. So how do I use it to put vorbisfille.dll in gta_sa.exe?

I'm sorry if I'm leading you down a wrong path. It is a diagnostics tool, and doesn't make changes to other programs.I downloaded Process Monitor and it's pretty confusing. So how do I use it to put vorbisfille.dll in gta_sa.exe?

No I think you may be on to something. So I checked/unchecked the stuff you said but when I tried to launch the game I didn't see anything change in the Process Monitor window

This maybe far fetched but you might can try making a copy of vorbise and paste it into c:/windows/system32 and trying again.
Don't ever do that... Never...
