Hi,

I've used LCPD:FR for a while and am (in my opinion) quite good at modding, not making but using, and I used LCPD:FR yesterday and gta worked fine apart from the usual crashes.

I hadn't been on it since and when it started gta up, it gets stuck on the screen about the legal stuff and social club info. I left it for about 40 mins however nothing changes no matter what i do.

I appreciate any help.

It would be nice to know what you did already, from basic steps like reboot to reinstalling the game.  Did you try to remove the mods, reload your PC, or somtehing? 

OK, 

Well to start openiv wasn't working but i got that to work after looking online, i had already found the non-working gta and still put a couple of peds in from a pack i had been using. i uninstalled lcpdfr which did not help and tried rebooting my computer. i did not want to uninstall the game as i forgot to back it up and wanted to see if anyone had encountered this and/or knew how to fix it. The mods all worked fine yesterday and i see no reason why not today.  

EDIT- It makes no difference whether i run as admin or not.

Yep, it was already there as i use the chikamaru real traffic mod and that line was there. 

I might just reinstall if no one is completely sure of any answers.

Thanks anyway!

​Have you installed custom weapon sounds? If so, make sure you have the proper weaponinfo.xml You can always just take one from another weapon sound mod as well

Hi,

Thanks for the answer but I've re installed the game and am in the process of getting back my mods.

I don't think it was the weapon sounds as they have worked for a very long time without issue.

Thanks anyway.
