hey guys, I'm having problems installing the new Eup 9.11 pack, I've been having chatGPT try to help me with modding, but i cant get past this problem, i have similar problems with any ADDON vehicles etc., my game is having a problem and crashing when its populating the game world, the only way i can get it to boot is when i go in the DLClist.xml and remove the EUP line entirely, i will provide my Log though its not showing much according to AI, i will include the ChatGPT conversation as well to give context to about where I'm at, its extremely frustrating considering i paid for the mod and the installer is broken/loading incorrectly for me, please reference my chat conversation as i have installed HeapAdjuster.asi HeapAdjuster.ini PackfileLimitAdjuster.asi PackfileLimitAdjuster.ini and im still running into the issue am i missing something specific? i apologize for any inconvenience for anyone and appreciate anyone else's time and attention would be deeply helpful so i can fully understand what's breaking my addons why i cant use anything outside of vanilla based slots etc.


here is the portion of the conversation for reference

Pasted content

dlclist.xml

File

here is my DLC list and it works after i remove the EUP line can you fix it so it loads properly?

Worked for 12s

LO, I checked the actual dlclist.xml, and the file itself is valid. The EUP entry is also written correctly:

<Item>dlcpacks:/eup/</Item>

It appears properly inside the <Paths> section, and there are no duplicate DLC entries in the file.

So I want to be straight with you: there is nothing I can change in this dlclist.xml that will make a broken EUP pack suddenly load correctly. Your controlled test already proves that the problem is downstream:

EUP line removed → game loads
EUP line present → game crashes

That means GTA is finding the eup DLC entry and then crashing while trying to mount or load the actual EUP pack.

The next thing that needs checking is this exact folder:

mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\eup\

It should contain:

dlc.rpf

and not something nested incorrectly like:

mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\eup\eup\dlc.rpf

Your dlclist.xml already has the correct EUP entry at line 106.

What I need from you next

Send me either:

• a screenshot of mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\eup\ in OpenIV, showing the contents, or

• the actual EUP dlc.rpf if you're able to upload it.

That is where the fault almost certainly is now. The dlclist.xml itself is not the part that needs repairing.

im installing the new update to see if anything changes, do i need to edit any other files for my game to allow user created "DLC" packs so to speak? every time i try to just add something as an "addon" my game breaks

Yes, LO — if every add-on DLC pack breaks your game, then there is probably a broader DLC-limit or gameconfig problem in your setup, not a problem with each individual add-on.

Your dlclist.xml itself is structurally valid, and it already contains several custom DLC packs:

<Item>dlcpacks:/lwe/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/lwelspdfr/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/lweprops/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/eup/</Item>

The fact that the game works after removing eup, but crashes whenever you add sufficiently large DLC packs, makes me suspicious of three things in particular.

1. Your gameconfig.xml

This is the biggest one I would check.

A heavily modded GTA V installation often needs a modified gameconfig.xml with increased pool values to handle extra:

• DLC packs

• vehicles

• peds

• clothing

• props

• map assets

The typical location is:

mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\gameconfig.xml

A vanilla or outdated gameconfig.xml can allow the game to work normally until another DLC pack is added, then suddenly cause a hard crash during world loading.

Given your exact symptoms, this is my strongest suspect right now.

2. Heap Adjuster

Many heavily modded GTA V Legacy installations use a heap adjuster to provide more memory for modded assets.

Typically, you'd see something like this in your main GTA V folder:

HeapAdjuster.asi
HeapAdjuster.ini

or similarly named files, depending on the specific version installed.

Without sufficient heap allocation, larger packs containing lots of EUP clothing, vehicles, or other assets can trigger crashes.

3. Packfile Limit Adjuster

GTA V also has limits related to the number of packfiles it can load. Heavily modded installations frequently use a packfile limit adjuster.

You may see something like:

PackfileLimitAdjuster.asi
PackfileLimitAdjuster.ini

in your GTA V root directory.

This becomes increasingly important as you add more DLC packs.

My honest assessment of your specific problem

Because you said:

every time I try to just add something as an addon my game breaks

I would not keep reinstalling EUP repeatedly yet.

I'd first verify your foundational mod setup. In particular:

GTA V root folder
├── dinput8.dll
├── OpenIV.asi
├── HeapAdjuster.asi
├── HeapAdjuster.ini
├── PackfileLimitAdjuster.asi
└── PackfileLimitAdjuster.ini

And:

mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\gameconfig.xml

The exact filenames may vary depending on which versions you're using.

One thing I noticed about your DLC list

Your game has GTA V DLC entries extending through the 2025 updates, including:

<Item>dlcpacks:/mp2025_01/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/patch2025_01/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/mp2025_02/</Item>
<Item>dlcpacks:/patch2025_02/</Item>

So an old gameconfig built for an earlier GTA V version could absolutely be a problem. Your RAGE log previously showed you're running GTA V Legacy build 1.0.3788.0, so whatever gameconfig you use needs to be appropriate for that game build and your mod load.

What I recommend doing next

Before you change anything else, check your main GTA V directory for:

HeapAdjuster.asi
HeapAdjuster.ini
PackfileLimitAdjuster.asi
PackfileLimitAdjuster.ini

Then check whether you have a custom:

mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\gameconfig.xml

Send me a screenshot of your GTA V root directory and your current gameconfig.xml. I can inspect your actual setup and tell you what you're missing instead of having you blindly install more files.

I wasn't able to find reliable current primary-source documentation for the exact combination of EUP 9.9 and GTA V Legacy build 1.0.3788.0, so I don't want to pretend a specific adjuster version is guaranteed to fix it without first seeing your setup.

File

i downloaded both of those here is my crash file

LO, I checked the new crash log. The important change is that your gameconfig is definitely being picked up now: the CollectionsArraySize increased from the previous 7344 to 13000.

But the crash still happens in exactly the same place:

Loading Story Mode
Loading and Populating Game World

Then the log abruptly ends.

So my read is:

The gameconfig change helped increase limits, but it did not fix the actual crash.

At this point, because you already proved:

EUP line removed from dlclist.xml = game loads
EUP line present = game crashes

the strongest remaining suspect is still the actual EUP DLC pack itself, especially one of these:

mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\eup\dlc.rpf

or something inside it such as:

content.xml
setup2.xml
pedalternatevariations.meta

A bad or incompatible EUP pack can still hard-crash GTA even with a larger gameconfig, Heap Adjuster, and Packfile Limit Adjuster.

One other important point: this RAGE log does not confirm whether Heap Adjuster or Packfile Limit Adjuster actually loaded successfully. RPH's log isn't necessarily where those ASI plugins report their status.

The cleanest next test is:

1. Leave Heap Adjuster, Packfile Limit Adjuster, and your new gameconfig installed.

2. Keep the EUP line in dlclist.xml.

3. Temporarily rename:

mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\eup

to:

eup_DISABLED

4. Launch the game.

If GTA gives a missing-pack error or crashes differently, then we know the DLC mount is being attempted correctly. If you then reinstall a fresh EUP pack into a clean eup folder and it works, the original dlc.rpf was corrupted or incompatible.

My strongest diagnosis right now is: your add-on limits are no longer the main issue; the EUP DLC pack itself is still the likely failure point.

RagePluginHook_11072026_183320.log

Since EUP 9.11 is a paid mod, it's probably best if you also ask in their support channels on the EUP Discord. It could also be a problem with the mod itself, which anyone here who doesn't own it won't know of.

Have you ensured you installed all the prerequisites, especially PedProp Limit Adjuster.
