Help please The GTA 3 downgrader only works for the RGL version I believe. Just grab a 1.0 exe. There's one for GTA 3 on the steam forums (just search up gta 3 1.0 exe steam and it should be the first link) and there's a 1.0 exe for vice city on the pcgamingwiki.

Note1: Since merging DLCs (TLAD and TBoGT) with main game, all songs are now combined. This was the case even before The Complete Edition, if you have bought these DLCs via GFWL marketplace. There is no way to disable TBoGT Vladivostok songs on IV and vice versa without any additional modifications!

Just get 1.0 exe Hey man, after downgrading 1.01, there's 2 .exe's in my directory : gta_sa and gta-sa. Which one I should run the game with?

Igor Bogdanoff Posted June 20, 2021 Author Share Posted June 20, 2021 why do you need to downgrade 1.1 version? Just install clean version from cd and dont patch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsoff Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Are the radio stations in GTA IV worth downgrading anymore? I can't start the game on rgl with the downgraded ones as it forces me to redownload modified files. I don't know if the same happens on Steam.

Same thing does *not* happen on steam as long as you launch with your desktop shortcut of GTA IV, 99% of the time it wont bother your mods. But yeah, RGL is a nightmare. I literally bought it on steam when it was on sale a month or so into owning it because i couldnt emotionally deal with RGL anymore lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsoff Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I actually had it on my physical edition, Disc 1 started to rot because of its terrible latin american packaging and now I can't install it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Bogdanoff Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 it would be nice if rockstar supported modded games on rgl especially when they are SP only. You cant do much about it, maybe find some workaround, get steam version or pray for OpenIV team to add same mods folder support for IV like they did for V (althought i wouldnt count on this as they have full hands with getting RPF modification running on RDR2) Jinx. and BrynnaDaRosa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Bogdanoff Posted June 27, 2021 Author Share Posted June 27, 2021 desktop shortcut should just be same as launching game from steam technically there shouldnt be any issues with steam version, unless rockstar decides to update the game, which i doubt now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooldogkid Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) When I try SkyGFX, it doesn't work correctly. the PS2 color filter isn't there. should i rename my gta-sa.exe to gta_sa.exe to make it work or something?

It was recommended to me by someone in the SkyGFX forums. Should I use Ultimate ASI Loader instead? I used SkyGFX via Modloader and since they told me it was fully compatible with modloader. I use it like that. I don't know how to post a picture of my folder structure sadly, but I can tell you the mods I use. Both Cleo and Modloader, just in case that can help The Mods I have: SlientPatch 13AG Widescreen Fix Remastered GUI CLEO Cleo Cheat Menu (I know, I'm a noob, don't judge me) Car Immunities (Again, I'm a noob) GInput Project 2DFX Cutscene Characters Enterable Hidden Interiors Draw Distance Mod (from the GTA Series Videos GTA SA Full Game video) HD Weapon Icons Fixed Facial Animations HQ SA Map Lively Peds Map Textures Fix Mobile Hands SA Beta Weapons Edited June 28, 2021 by Kooldogkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlientPatch, Widescreen Fix, Project 2DFX,Cleo, and Ginput are where the exe is located. Car Immunities and Cheat Menu are in the cleo folder. the rest of the mods are in modloader. i did put SkyGFX in both Modloader and where the gta-sa.exe is located but the ps2 sky/color filter isn't working. am I'm doing something wrong? or do i need to config something with SkyGFX? I don't have a PS2 timecycle file/mod so maybe I need that, but I don't know why it doesn't look like the PS2 version. This is how the mod looks to me: http://gta.rockstarvision.com/skygfx/screenshots/sa/none_radiosity2.png Edited June 28, 2021 by Kooldogkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
