I have reason to believe that ELS v8.5 is causing my game to not load at all. This is how it starts, I installed LCPDFR 1.0d and CryENB and the game loaded fine, but as soon as I install the ELS files into the directed folders, the game will not load. I tried to look more deeply into this, but couldn't find anything helpful. So, I was wondering if someone could provide me with an answer on how to solve this issue as it would greatly appreciated! 

As a problem in the original ELS 8.0 people would have an issue with their game crashing and the reason was for having a file that wasn't needed in which caused the game to crash. All I could tell you are these things:

• You customized something in your directory which screwed up the game. Which would be either ENB configuration or the wrong .dll files that need to be replaced.

• You didn't delete the "AdvancedHookInit.asi"

These are the only things I know that screwed up my game. If you didn't have any modded cars in your game already when you crashed then my reasons would make sense. If you did, then that's another reason.

Now, to be more specific, the ELS.asi file is the reason for why my GTA 4 won't start at all. It is still from ELS v8.5 ,but advanced hook, script hook, dsound etc. comes from the CryENB. 

Nevermind, I finally got it to work. Thank you CryptEclipse for the help!

How'd you fix it?

I messed around too much in the ENB settings and it kept causing the game to crash. So I just replaced the enb.ini with the original one from the download.

Looks like I was right. When I turn on or off certain things in the ini, it screws up the game a bit which sucks. Glad I could help
