EpsilonProgram Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Again GTA IV and EFLC discs on an Xbox 360 console are not affected by this. I just tested both again and no update and soundtrack still the same. I assume PS3 discs are the same. I can't tell if Xbox 360 downloads or PSN downloads are affected, I assume no. Is probably new digital copies being sold as of today on these stores. A buddy of mine just tested his PC DVD and it was not updated either. So far the Xbox One version and Steam are the updated ones.

Doesnt touch the paul.dll (launcher?), since it should do much difference. Just extract to your IV folder and run intall.bat Please any feedback. Finally got all GTAs to work, and checked the radio myself. It just works IV radio "downgrader" EFLC radio "downgrader" Just unpack to your IV or EFLC root directory and run the install.bat, wait till the command line disappears and play! ZIT works normally after downgrade?

SirWillC Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 So many good songs gone I have both GTA IV & EFLC on disc(PS3) so I will definitely not update them whenever it shows up. Does the update applies to disc and digital? I did put in my GTA IV disc and nothing popped up. Not my video: All rights goes to youtuber Gravarty On my Xbox 360 disc nothing popped up while I was loading in, I still had the original soundtrack when I loaded in I was pretty happy. I’ve since disconnected my 360 from the internet to make sure that update never shows up!

ComputerBlue Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 The amount they replaced compared to what they removed is f*cking disgusting.

NeonDolphin Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) If GTA IV were on gog, none of this would matter GTA 4 would've met the same fate/update as on Steam or would be pulled off completely. Look at Mafia on GOG which has ALL THE LICENSED SONGS removed. Or Mafia II which has some songs removed. Or Codemasters games like GRID, CMR Rally 2005, TOCA 3 which were completely pulled off from GOG due to some licenses expirations. Or Alan Wake got removed over the music you'd think was created specifically for the game.

"carrec*.rrr" files in paths folder. You can delete them since they are all included in "carrec.img" (since Patch 1 or so) Game startup takes horribly long as others already mentioned.
