Andromeda-J Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) ive tested it with friends steam account to see it and i noticed all my RGSC game was ok to steam only exes had to be replaced by steam, easy way to convert RGSC to steam is just let steam start install cancel it and copy over all RGSC game files to steam library folder newly created gta 5 folder and let it verify/fix via install, later if you need them again back up all files that were modified on the date you did this.

Andromeda-J Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 even easier, first copy over steam game somewhere and replace exe files by downloading rgsc ones here and install to copied location it, before ofc get rid of steam exe files in that new copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
