MAAAJJOOORRR BUGG! Windows 7. Fail to open.. it loads but nothing appears.

OK, this IS a major problem - And the solution is a major pain in the you-know-where. Oh, and uhh - It's a hit and miss solution at that!

 

First of all, you need to search Google for the "GTA SA Downgrade Patch". It's about 10mb and will change the version of your copy of GTA SA from 2.0, to 1.0 or 1.1. Sounds crazy? To downgrade something? Maybe it is - But it's essential to getting Control Center to work!

 

You've done that.

 

You now need to search for, and download, three 'OCX' files that are infuriatingly missing from Windows 7 64bit.

 

These are:

 

COMDLG32.OCX

MSCOMCTL.OCX

and

TABCTL32.OCX

 

A good place to get them from is the OCXdump site (Google it, or Google the individual file names)

 

Once you've downloaded these - You need to move them from your download folder to the following location:

 

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\

 

You may find that you already have one of them in there - In which case, when you're prompted to "Replace" or "Don't Copy" - Don't Copy.

 

Next - Press 'Start' (You know, the button at the bottom left hand corner of your desktop) and type in 'Run'. Open 'Run'.

 

Type in the following (Or just Copy and Paste from here):

 

regsvr32 \windows\SysWOW64\COMDLG32.OCX

regsvr32 \windows\SysWOW64\MSCOMCTL.OCX

and

regsvr32 \windows\SysWOW64\TABCTL32.OCX

 

**YOU MAY RECEIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE EACH TIME** - But it seems to make no difference whatsoever.

 

Now, here's where my assistance gets a little... ! Unsure! Because I did quite a few things after the above failed to fix the problem immediately - I can't be sure what I've suggested below, worked (Though something did!)

 

1. Uninstall any previously installed GTA SA Control Center files then restart. Reinstall the Control Center.

 

It seems to me that you MUST be IN THE GAME for the Control Center to initiate the first time (If it's a new game - In the alley, before you get on that bike) When Tenpenny's thrown you out of the car and you gain control of CJ first - Press 'Esc' then switch to the desktop (Alt+Tab together).

Or whenever a previously saved game has loaded - And you're able to control CJ's movements.

 

Should work.

 

2. If not! Try asking Windows to help you find the best Compatibility settings by right-clicking the GTA SA Control Center shortcut and selecting 'Troubleshoot Compatibility' (You may have to try more than one suggested fix)

 

If it still isn't working - Go here: http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=11359

And download the 'Source Code' (11mb)

 

Extract the zip compressed download and look for the GTA SA Control Center executable in there, and try and get THAT compatible (As per step 2)

 

Try the above and get back to me if it still doesn't want to work.

 

(By the way, I found the information about putting the OCX files in SysWOW - I'm not claiming false authorship there! )

Can you add the option to freeze "get back in your vehicle timer"?

[Merik2013]

the site you've hosted these on is down. not only that, but I don't see why anyone should have to go through all that trouble just to use this program on Win 7 64bit. something needs to be done about all this.

I´ve used this in my old computer that had XP but now I have new computer with Vista and it won´t even start. Why? What I´m missing?

I had the same problem and i fixed it with this file: mscomctl.ocx

You have to download this file from here:Press Here and put it in the ControlCenter folder.

It worked for me...

[aragond]

Just FYI...

 

(i) I managed to get this to work on my Win7 rig. To do this I (a) copied the files from my XP machine, and plopped in a directory, (b) copied the OCX files from my Win32 directory on XP and dropped them in my WinWOW64 directory, as well as in the root of the control center, and © ran compatibility setting scanner on the control centre exe and it found WinXP-SP2, and viola! It now works!

 

(ii) Mind you, it does seem -- or maybe it's SA on Win7 -- a little less stable. I guess that's to be expected. ADDENDUM: I've found the handbrake is permanently on, the "vertical mouse" 10x more sensitive than the horizontal which makes aiming next to impossible. I think it's XP VM time. I really don't think this is a viable idea.

 

(iii) I've used this since I've been playing SA and it is undeniably AWESOME. I'm sorry to read the author has been forced to abandon it on account of family life, but he wrote an incredibly useful tool, and for that I thank him.

 

(iv) There were consoles too for VC and III, which were similarly awesome. It was using the console on III that meant I played that thing for over a thousand hours -- the most I have played any game ever. It's a shame game publishers appear set on preventing this sort of hackery going on because this is the best use of games: hacking them. Some of the vids I've seen of IV hacked MP sessions convince me of this. I'm glad R* didn't make it too hard for the IV hackers.

 

Anyway. Hope this helps.

Could be stupid........ but is there a way to run this on WIndows 10?

It was the best trainer ever.

Tried compatibilty mode for Xp SP2 but no work

[CCJ]

Such a pity. I don't think this even works with Win10 anymore. :(

I have lost Denise as a girlfriend...her heart icon is gone!! Is there any way to get it back through the control center or any other way?

Please help me out, Thanks!

[OrionSR]

I'm pretty sure the SACC can stop a girlfriend from dumping CJ by adjusting her progress bar, but this tool is not able to enable girlfriends. (Do this anyway, and save, it'll make the next part easier.)

 

If you need more help on this then please post your question in the III era modding forums as the discussion is off topic here. But I see that you've been checking up on girlfriend codes in PS2 topics, and those solutions are inappropriate for PC. So here are a few clues.

Better reference: SA Girlfriend Globals and Bitmasks

Cleo codes can easily re-enable Denise, but that's a detailed conversation. There is one tool, however, that can modify SA global variables. Download and install SASE 1.00, a save editor. Global variables can be modified on the Scripts tab, but first turn off the cheat flag. I'm not sure why this tool turns in on; it has odd quirks, but it's the only tool that can do this job easily and doesn't appear to do any serious damage.

Increase global variable $406 by 1. Sometimes modifying bits within an integer can be tricky but it's easy with Denise since she's using bit 0. ie. Denise is enabled if $406 has an odd value.

The icon, car spawn and dating sphere are controlled by other scripts. Fixing her progress and enabling her bit flag should allow the other scripts to manage these normally.

Thanks a lot! I downloaded that editor and I'm trying to change the $306 value. In hex it shows 0x00000000 so what value should i assign to it to increase it by 1?

oops I wrote that for $306...xD

for $406 hex value is something 0x01E0001E

Should I convert it to integer and add 1?

[OrionSR]

"Converting" only changes how the data is displayed in the editor. But yes. 

This isn't the proper topic for this discussion. If you have more trouble start a new topic in the III Era Modding forums.

Yeah, I've created a new topic on this in that forum. Please go through my post 'cause there is a bigger problem!

Thanks!

If someone could help me solve couple of issues with SACC..

1:How do you dive with this thing on?

I mean normally..I know how to dive using my controller.

But every time I dive..I drop on the bottom of the sea(or river) and have to find the beach I can climb..

2:Sometimes the car  info about what proof it is just stays on the screen..Might be a bug?

I´m using this on Win 10 Home 64 bit HP Gaming laptop

and only thing I have added was widescreen fix..
