And you still don't have ScriptHookDotNet.log (text document) in your GTA IV main folder?

Nope, I have a ASI log but no Scripthook log

From the Screen capture I posted could you see anything that I'm overlooking?

Everything looks fine from that screen capture. What does ASI log says?

Download this one (http://www.hazardx.com/details.php?file=84), extract it and overwrite the file when asked.

Still nothing after the new dsound

You said that you couldn't see the GTA IV under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, maybe that is the problem.

 

http://snaphackers.blogspot.com/2012/12/gta-4-patch-error-gta-was-not-detected.html

Tried the steps in the link you provided and came up with this when I tried to add it to my registry.

Update.. I got the .reg file inserted corretly and now I see the folder under Local_Machine in regedit. Still no success in starting LCPD:FR

I'm running out of options. 

 

Since you are using a Steam version of the game, then why is GTA IV not installed in one of the Steam directories?

It was but I had moved it after I tried running lcpdfr first with no success. Since then I haven't placed it back in the steam folder.

UPDATE! Using the G17 Diagnostic Tool It is now detecting GTA IV.   I hadn't yet started the game through steam for the 1st time and it had to go through some other kind of installation process. Once I completed that G17 detected GTA IV. I re-installed LCPD:FR but still not working with ALT-P or CTRL-P, and also still no scripthook log.

Here is what G17 log states now

Can you go to 'Programs and Features' in the 'Control Panel' and take few screenshots of the programs you have installed, from top to the bottom?

The following picture is a screen capture from Programs and Features:

Install updated .Net Framework and Visual C++ from those two links below. They might fix something.

 

Google, how to be a super administrator on Windows 7. If you want to.

 

Install those with administrative rights:

 

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/pc/downloadclient

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653

 

And make sure that you are running the game with administrative rights by going to GTA IV/EFLC folder, right click on GTAIV.exe/EFLC.exe, select 'Properties' then 'Compatibility' and enable option 'Run this program as administrator', also do the same exact thing to the LaunchGTAIV/EFLC.exe.

 

Also, download and extract Scripthook.dll and ScripthookDotNet.asi files to your GTA IV/EFLC root folder (http://www.hazardx.com/details.php?file=83) and overwrite the files when asked.

 

Done, but still no success..

Go to 'Control Panel', 'System and Security', then in the 'Windows Update' section click on 'Check for updates' option and see if Windows needs to be updated. I really don't know what else to say, there must a reason why the game doesn't want to load script files.

I installed all updates that are available but still no success.. I really dont know whats up, would it be something with my operating system?

A shot in the dark, is it a legal operating system? Meaning you bought it? 

You can try and do these:

 

1. Install Windows 7 again. Hard drive must be totally clean. In the Windows 7 installation wizard, there is going to be a window with hard drive partitions. Delete all partitions you can and create new one (that will make your hard drive clean) and then install the Windows 7.

 

2. When you have Windows 7 running, install all necessary drivers with administrative rights and update the Windows 7 (there is going to be a lot of updates).

 

3. Install programs below with administrative rights:

• Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
• DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer
• Visual C++ Redistributable 2012
• Adobe Flash Player (install both versions)
• Games for Windows Marketplace Client
• Java

4. Install Steam and other programs you need with administrative rigts. And click on the 'Check updates' option to see if there's more updates available to install for Windows 

 

5. Download the GTA IV.

 

6. After the download is complete, left click on the GTA IV, 'Properties', 'Local Files' tab, and then select 'Verify the integrity of game cache'. 

 

7. After the process is done, it will say that all files are validated or it will say that some files are not validated and that those files need to be downloaded again.

 

8. Launch the game for the first time without any modifications and don't play it.

 

9. Install LCPD:FR modification with administrative rights ('?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>).

 

10. Download and extract Scripthook.dll and ScripthookDotNet.asi files to your GTA IV root folder (http://www.hazardx.com/details.php?file=83), and overwrite the files when asked.

 

11. Make sure that your GTA IV root folder (and every subdirectory) is not set to "read-only".

 

12. Make sure that you launch the game with the administrative rights by going to GTA IV/EFLC root folder, right click on GTAIV.exe/EFLC.exe, select 'Properties' then 'Compatibility' and enable option 'Run this program as administrator', also do the same exact thing to the LaunchGTAIV/EFLC.exe.
