Hey guys,

 

I just downloaded GTA IV from Steam successfully. I looked through the troubleshoot list and corrected a few things on there, but still having issues with starting the mod.

 

The Problem: I press Alt+P and nothing happens.

 

What I've done:

 

-Downloaded LCPDFR 1.0 Automatic Installer

-Downloaded hotfix 1.0a

-Updated to latest GTA IV Patch 7

-Ran as administrator

 

 

My System: Laptop

Windows 8 64 bit

8GB RAM

2.20ghz

 

Everything seems to be in order. I followed many tips I found on other threads, youtube videos, etc and cannot figure out why the mod wont even start up.

 

If anyone is willing to help me get started I would greatly appreciate it. Also, I do not know what those logs were so im not sure if they exist or not.

 

Thanks

 

Hi.
Could you try to install LCPDFR 1.0 manually, with the manual installation package? (http://www.lcpdfr.com/files/getdownload/66380-lcpd-first-response/) Follow the attached guide to the letter. 

Still not working.....

 

I installed it manually and followed it line by line.  I downloaded the game from Steam so I'm assuming the automatic updates would have downloaded the correct version patch 1.0.7?

 

I'm not sure what the c+ redistributable is but when I uninstalled LCPDFR to get ready to reinstall manually, I got rid of it because it came with the original automatic install. Maybe I need to download that again? I don't know what it is.

 

Drawing a blank.

Well, then you will have to install these. They're needed :)

All of the C++ files 64, 84 arm?

 

Yes, they're all needed :) 

Success!!!

 

All that was a first for me. Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it.

Of course, I am glad I could help!
