Hello whoever sees this! I've recently been having an issue and it's been causing me a decent bit of stress trying to get the game working.

As the title states, Rage Plugin Hook infinitely shows Launching Game even when the game has been pre-launched by me (as I always do).

Image showing the exact situation below:

Spoiler

Usually I fix these things myself but I'm really at my wits end. I've installed LSPDFR manually about a trillion times, even going as far as to manually remove every single LSPDFR file and Plugin, and I'm just not sure what I can do at this point.

I'm aware I'm supposed to send a .log file, however that won't be any good here, as RAGE doesn't generate any new logs until it has been fully initialised, which is what it appears to be failing to do.

As some extra context, I have two seperate installs of the game, one from steam, which is my clean, unmodded version, and one from Epic, which is the one I'm using here. I have attempted renaming the Steam EXE's for the game to ensure RPH isn't attempting to launch my steam version, which it mustn't be since the issue is still present. I've played LSPDFR for years and I've never seen anything like this happen on a fully updated version of LSPDFR/RPH, so I'd appreciate it if somebody might have some idea on a fix.

 

Thanks in Advance!

Thanks for your reply!

I've tried all manner of fixes along these lines. Starting RPH and letting it launch GTAV (which it will infinitely attempt to do, but never actually do), starting GTA and then launching RPH before GTA launches, starting GTA and launching RPH on the loading screen to SP and also starting GTA, loading in to story mode, and then launching RPH, none of which have worked

I'd be lying if I said I knew what everything here was for, however I can say none of it was troublesome when I last played about 4 or 5 months back
