Can you please check loading.rpf in PC/audio/sfx if songs there are not corrupted?

Looking at LOADING.rpf with OpenIV, all music seems to be fine. They all open up properly, even if I didn't listen to them all at the end.

 

Shvayne_Edited_Version is completely silent for the first 16 secs or so before fading in, but I assume that's normal and it's to restore the song in the opening cutscene after Niko meets Roman?

 

Menu_1 has several different tracks but they seem to play okay, but each track sounds like they end abruptly/cut off at 26 secs, especially the 4 Strings tracks.

I toggled both SkipIntro and SkipMenu to 0 since they were by default 1, and I got a bit into the beginning legal stuff before the crash, then back to 1 again and crash.

 

Hmm... is FusionFix causing the crashes? Is it not working well with the downgraded game?

Roger, for now, I'll delete GTAIV folder and redownload a clean version from Steam for when you put out the next test.

 

Thank you again for all your hard work!

So this version is now safe to download and use without causing issues with the latest Steam release?

I don't mean to be intrusive, but could you please add this link to the front page? The point is, many people looking for a downgrader only search on this front page and many won't find it.

Applied fixed downgrader to clean steam copy, used settings with new vladivostok, added FusionFix, loaded game and played IV up to passing Three's Company where I saved.

 

When Roman picked me up, Schwinse was playing in cutscene and on radio when controlling the cab.

 

Downgrader seems to be working perfectly now! Lowered framerate to 59 and things seem excellent so far, other than the per-existing issues (tearing of textures, like water or buildings at far distance, even with everything maxed out to 100) but that's part of the game.

 

If ENB's like icenhancer were able to work here, I'd be happy.

 

Question, with the CE, would using the continuity fix mod for Jim Fitzgerald from Nexus break anything, now that both Episodes are in the game? The model for the white biker is in the files in the main PC/models/compenentpeds.img, so it shouldn't be an issue to replace the model, right?

New downgrader works like a charm and my 100% save game is still compatible with this mod, worth the wait! Thanks for this awesome downgrader man!

I found a little problem in IV downgrade mod. When doing the ransom mission, there is no dialogue, even no Gracie moaning, total silence and even when Niko tries to call Packie when he's done photographing her, Niko immediately turns off the phone without talking.

Had a

Was trying out Vladivostok with the new radio, and noticed that Pjanoo was playing on the radio. Just wanted to point that out.

 

Going to try the classic Vladivostok settings next, will report if there's anything else.

That's not weird, that's TBOGT Vladivostok FM playing.

Ah, but it was happening while I was Niko in IV, so it threw me off.

 

So the downgrader combined the radios of all 3 games + restoring the cut songs? I thought that the radios were separate in each game.

 

Doesn't bother me much, I only care about getting stuff that was removed back; if the soundtrack is blended, it doesn't bother me. I just thought it might be a bug since I didn't know how CE handled radio.

In the original IV + DLC, that's how it worked, all the radios combined into blocks, it was only split for EFLC but since that doesn't "exist" now, the game has reverted to IV + DLC.

Well.. I guess It's late for that because I already passed it and kept continuing or maybe not It's not late, don't know. Anyways, maybe It's not your fault, because my game acts strange as well. Like, It runs so fast, zoomed in cutscenes sometimes and sometimes random crashes. Maybe the game wasn't acting right, that's why there wasn't the dialogue? In older patch versions, everything was working fine, no matter what settings I used, in newest one not really.

thats vanilla issue, happens at over 50 or maybe even 30 fps

only run to this with scripthook and simple native trainer or when switching some graphics settings (i think vsync) which again vanilla issue

 

Try fusion fix

The cutscenes zooming in is a known problem. 60+ fps and it will happen, it will keep zooming in, when it goes far enough the game will freeze. Kinda like how even in this version you will still be unable to finish the game if your above 60fps :)

one question, when it says "With New Vladivostock Song" it means that combine new and old vladivostock or just the new songs (TBOGT ones) and what happen if i don't choose none

If what I remember what Sam Lake said, "New Vladivostok" means all the old songs from IV & Episodes, plus the "replacement" tracks that Rockstart put in after removing the expired tracks.

also, idk if it's only me but half of Vice City FM audios are corrupted

I just checked my VCFM with OpenIV, and I don't have any corrupted tracks. What tracks are corrupted on your end?

Hello, have a question, I have San Andreas v1.01 and want to downgrade to 1.0, tried using the RGSC/Steam to v1 downgrader, the game runs but when i try to start a new file the game crashes. That downgrader should work for my game version or should I look somewhere else of a 1.01 to 1.0 downgrader?

There is no way to disable TBoGT Vladivostok songs on IV and vice versa without any additional modifications!

Do such modifications even exist? If they do, can someone please give me a link for it?

Downgrader seems fine on my end. It just took me a while to get used to blended radio since I always played IV separately and EFLC was it's own game.

im not sure about 1.01, you should just install SA and use nocd exe on it, or you can try v2 to 1.0 downgrader
