Hello,

 

 

Yesterday I decided to buy GTA IV on PC after watching a lot of LCPDFR videos, I then came here to download LCPDFR 1.0, it was successfully installed. So when I went in to single player nothing was different, i checked the map nothing was different, I saw someone saying Press CTRL + P  or alt +P yet that didn't do anything either. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

 

 

Thanks

 

Rob

Hi Rob,

 

I suggest you go to this guide here '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

It will help you through a lot of problems to get your game up and running.

 

If after going through that guide, nothing works still, feel free to quote me with a reply and I will figure it out for you :)

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply, I tried using the Diagnostic tool, I followed all the instructions and I got the following error.

 

 

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have attached a screenshot of what i'm doing and what it results in;

 

 

 

 

Anyone know how to fix?

Hi, sorry for the delayed reply been doing some research.

 

Could you upload a screenshot of your GTA IV directory for me please, and also check inside your LCPDFR folder that you have a a file with a silly long name (something like microsoftAPIPack.dll, I have no idea what it's called off the top of my head)

No worries,

 

 

I've had some success if you could call it that, I uninstalled it and re-installed it and when i use the diagnostics i get this error now.

Perfect, you're problem is you're missing the necessary microsoft redists.

If you go back to my guide, in chapter 3 you will see a list of different "missing" dependencies, the third one I believe is for the files you need.

Thanks a lot for all your help, I really appreciate it. I downloaded those 2 files, yet when i run the diagnostic tool it still says the same thing :S

Anything I can do to help I will :)

 

Did you make sure you installed them? They should be .msi files which need installing? (stupid question I know but I've seen stupid things so I have to check)

 

Run the diag tool again and see what it says now you have those installed.

All are installed yep, I'm not the most computer literate person so I must of done something wrong.

 

Here's what i did.

 

Download both > Install both from chrome  > tried again and got the same error.

Right ok, let's go through this in as basic as we can just to be absolutely sure.

 

Downloaded 2012 redist (86x, not the 64x we don't need that)

Installed the 2012 redist.

Ran the diagnostics tool again.

 

Your diag tool report said 2012 was missing, not 2010 so I assume you have that already. But if you want to be doubly sure,

 

Downloaded the 2010 (86x)

Installed the 2010 redist.

Ran the diag tool again.

There is no stupidty in asking for help if you are stuck with something, in fact. That is the very best thing you can do. And I can promise you there is at least 10 other people on this forum who will read this thread and be helped by it.

 

Stupidty is sitting in a corner complaining it doesn't work and expecting it to magically start working. :)

 

I am glad that I could help you, enjoy :)

 

EDIT: I breached 400 posts today :D

Yes there is, although not all of them just the main ones.
