GTA and mods dont mix for me...(Solved)


Go to solution Solved by Will,

Recommended Posts

Now i know i've been posting a lot on the forums since im back with GTA but i keep having more and more problems. Now a lot of my posts were about the crap error known as SMPA60..........Its now making my game un playable in a way. Its every. 5. minutes -_- smpa60, smpa60 CTD, Gta.exe has stopped working...C,mon What the hell? Am i installing something wrong...

 

Here....For example. sometimes when i install car mods they are named something likeeee police2 (For both model and texture files)...Well sometimes i rename them and use them on another car (I like certian cars to patrol and certian ones to be called in or ETC/Extra cars)

 

Would that cause it or is it just a general GTA problem ( i know a lot of people or even everyone who mods almost gets it, But i see vids on YOUTUBE of people playing LCPDFR with EVERY SINGLE ONE of their cars modded and they can record and play for an hour to 2 hours straight without crash.)

 

Would my computer being that its shit cause a problem with it? It's the SMPA60 type thats just annoying and crashes cause of mods. Not because im saving a car and modding it, I don't keep cars at my save point.

 

Is there anything i can do to fix this OR! even not "FIX" it completly, I'd love to play GTA with my mods for at least a while (1-2 hours) Without crashing. Any way to make this better so i can play gta with mods (Which is more fun since i've played the story like 30 times).

 

 

I'll stop posting about this i just hope to get an answer/explanation

 

 

+ The fact i have to play my GTA on low cause of lag (Gamebooster seems to have took away SOME of it once in a while but not much...Also defragged the directory)

 

 

 

Oh and, Just because I mentioned LCPDFR in my post DOES NOT mean i'm trying to post about LCPDFR support. This is a general modding/GTA problem ( So please don't close my thread, I know you guys don't take LCPDFR help support, I just really want a solid answer besides "Oh yeah i get that too" Or "hurr durr its cus u saive car n mod it" cause its not that i don't save my cars :P..

 

And if it's from ONE of my modded cars....I wouldn't know which...The cars i have modded are the Enforcer (NOOSE) Police, police2, 3 and 4 and some others....Unmodded are police bike, FIB, Noose car (Not sure name). I DO have copy's of my vehicles.img (Backed up this time :D) But I don't see how my modded cars just cause this error.

 

 

That's all, Just looking for a Technical and a SOLID answer/HOPEFUL solution to make my game run LONGER...than 10 minutes until i crash

How much Ram does your computer have? Ram allows the processing of scripts and models and all around mods. So if you're trying to run like 8 mods or so sometimes your game cant handle unless its got the necessary Ram.

My comp has 6 GB of RAM (5.59 usable)...I have some stuff in commandline if that matters 

 

 

 

-noprecache
-novsync
-novblank
-viewdistance 0
-renderquality 0
-detailquality
-frameLimit 0
-texturequality 0
-availablevidmem 1.1
-percentvidmem 100
 
 
I have mostly (Script wise) LCPDFR, VdH stuff (Most of them) and Trafficflow. Car mods is the only other major thing (Most of my police cars are modded like i listed)

Well I mean Playing for long periods of time is all luck. I see where you're coming from though but try and understand that the game wasn't built to be modded so crashes are normal. as to why you keep crashing periodically every 10 minutes I have no Idea sorry :l 

 

EDIT: Good Ram btw

Well i see what you mean by gta isnt meant to be modded, It wasnt......Long periods of time isn't really luck however since i see TONS of youtubers recording their gameplay with LCPDFR, and EVERY one of their cars modded. Every single police car ambulance nooose all of it and no crashes until like an hour or two.

 

 

Idk.

 

 

Hope someone can atleast give me an EXPLANATION of smpa60 (Not the savegame part i get that one)

 

Just would like to play longer than 10-15 minutes 



just gonna wait for more views/replies, As of right now (8:30AM) I've been up all night so think imma go to sleep and hope when i get up that theres more replies on this c:

 

 

Any help/Explanations would be appreciated. (Guessing not a lot of people on yet)

SMPA 60 is pretty much always caused by modded cars. The problem usually is that there is a missing object in the car's files. It's best to install one car at a time and test it. If it happens without any modded cars or with every single car you install, then I don't know.

 

ELS is also a major contributor to crashing. If you go to ELS.ini in your GTA IV directory (if you do use ELS) and change the option that enables ELS on AI cars (not sure of the exact line, don't have GTA IV on this computer) from "1" to "0" that will reduce crashing immensely, but in return disables ELS on AI cars. That means the AI will not be able to turn the lights on, only sirens. Even if you have non-ELS cars in for the AI slots (mainly police1 and police2), do this.

Does your game crashes when you leave the area around your safe house?

 

If yes, then move your cars out of the parking slot of your safe house. Then go back into the safe house and overwrite your save. Once you've done that you must load that save. Yes you will not have those cars again until you find them, but that's the way to fix this crash.

If no, try restoring the vehicle.image file back to the very original one, then start replacing vehicles again. Make sure the cars that you are modding is not in the safe house parking slot otherwise it will crash because the game is trying to load the previous settings for that car.

As he said multiple times, he doesn't save any cars at his safe house.

Ah sorry didn't see his other posts. My solution is to test the game from basic. So it like first play the game with no modded cars (restore the very original vehicle img). Then add one, if it crashes, change a different car and so on?

Thank you all for the suggestions.

 

 

It seems that I don't get SMPA60 anymore, Ever since i recently put the original vehicles.img file back, And installed a few low poly cars.

 

 

I only modded noose truck and most of the police cars, The only problem now is lag. I might end up turning off AI ELS lights, It would look stupid but If it reduces crashing and lag...

 

 

one of the cars is the normal police cruiser with an ELS lightbar, So thats low poly and a few others are pretty low. They look good, I'm satisfied and i have 2 more backups of vehicles.img and one of EFLC. I can mark this as solved since i don't get SMPA60 anymore :D

 

The only crashing i now get is gtaiv.exe has stopped working after about...Err.. An hour...Thats enough for me :D. Or if, You know one of my scripts goes stupid and I have to re load my savegame, That crashes me. But no more SMPA60 and im satisfied with my cars

 

 

Thanks
