G'day all,

 

I am new to modding GTA 5 and LSPDFR. Although enjoyable since I started a few weeks ago, I am plagued by constant problems.

 

The issue I am having is that when launching GTA 5, it starts downloading some 107MB file - just after I had installed a siren pack and vehicle replacement. I am aware of the 'mods' folder, however I followed the instructions received with the downloads and still end up with this result.

 

I tried going into Windows firewall with advanced security and blocked these .exe files from having a connection (subprocess.exe, gta5.exe, gtavlauncher.exe & playgta.exe) however it still is somehow signing into the Social Club and commencing the 107MB download. Then I found GTA 5 Mod Manager, but given my GTA has already been modded, am unsure of how best to go forward. Also not sure of how it is supposed to work with RPH.

 

I suppose my question is: what steps does everyone take after a fresh install of GTA 5 to counter this?

 

In addition, is there any way to find and locally save the software updates/DLC? I have the retail/DVD version and after each reinstall I have to download GBSs of updates.

 

Any help is warmly appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Joe.

If it is on the social club screen, when the update starts, then leave it. This is only the update for Social Club and not for GTA V. However, if it is on the GTA V launcher, then thats a completely different issue.

you are using a mods folder right
