GTA IV Not launching via Steam


Recommended Posts

I have GTA IV on steam as well as EFLC.

 

However, when I try to launch the game, it does not launch.


This started after I installed LCPDFR. Before I installed that, the game ran fine.

 

I reinstalled the game and tried launching it again, the same thing happened.

 

Any fixes?

It's because GTAIV was updated, and scripthook does not allow the game to launch with the new update. To play LCPDFR you need to downgrade your game version.

Try this:

When I tried to use the updater, it said it ended prematurely because it couldn't find my game folder. How can I change that?

 

This is what it's telling me.

 

Launching Title Update: "C:\Users\Hunterdean\Downloads\New folder\title_update_7_EN\UpdateTitle.exe" /selflaunch  
Could not find game install folder
To manually set folder, run: "C:\Users\Hunterdean\Downloads\New folder\title_update_7_EN\UpdateTitle.exe" /f "<path to game folder>"

Here this one's more clear and says it does not use the installer:

Okay, that worked to install LCPDFR, but . When I go to start the game, it stays on the loading screen and doesn't load me into the game. I sat for like, 30 minutes waiting for it to load before giving up. How can I fix that?
