Uninstalled the game...reinstalled the game...attempted to play regular GTA story mode to see if it works....STUCK ON LOADING....SOMEBODY HELP

[CheddaJohn 14]

Yes it's me again...the one that has the mysterious fucking problem that won't let me play this shit at all. I AM CURSED.

 

 

Last night I did the following, in order:

 

1. Deleted GTA folder from "common"

2. Right click - uninstall from Steam

3. Re-installed

4. Waited X amount of time

5. Got home, tried to play GTA by hitting the desktop button.

6. STUCK ON LOADING STORY MODE

 

So this isn't even an RPH or LSPDFR isssue. THE GAME WON'T FUCKING PLAY ON ITS OWN TO BEGIN WITH.

 

WHY??????????????????????

 How am I the only fucking guy who has barely been able to play this game despite owning it for 18-19 months?!?!?!?!?!?!? Gotta love how the youtubers get secret help to prevent this shit while guys like me suffer.

 

Do I even need to provide screenshots? I mean WTF man this is stupid. Does ANYONE have ANY sort of clue as to what is causing this?!?!?!?!?!?!? At this point, I think I might even donate to the one who solves this for fucks sake.

 

Sorry if i seem like a dick, im just beyond pissed.

 

You know why I say I am cursed? because back in November or so when I was able to miraculously get it to work....the following day (about 12 hours from last playing session) it went back to the hanging (during loading population) bullshit despite me NOT making ANY additions to the GTA folder. So somebody has to be doing black magic against me. My God this is ridiculous. November was the last time I was able to have an LSPDFR gaming session and I may even be wrong about the month. Might have actually been Aug-Sept ish I don't remember.

Would you happen to have any other mods than LSPDFR installed?

I didn't install anything. Not scripthook, not rph, no plugins. I wanted to see if the game itself worked before i wasted time. It does not.

 

I even tried this "fix"  and it didnt work:

this is outrageous.

Not sure if you've tried this or not, go into steam (assuming you have the steam version), click on Library, Right click on GTA 5, Go to Properties, Local files, and verify the game cache. You may be missing one small file.

toshiba laptop

 

core i7

 

I was able to play like a motherfucker from sept 2015 to dec 2015. Dec 2015 was when the first issues began. Ever since then I have been cursed. Played about maybe 15 times, if that, since then.

Hmm. Sorry, not sure what to do from there. Let me know if you find a solution!

Yeah I'll probably never find one. I make this thread every other month. This is completely baffling.

 

I might ask Jeff Favigano who he pays to help him. He and other Yters never have this big of an issue.

 After you uninstall from steam  ..  you need to go into the folder and remove all the modded folders you installed .  Steam does not remove those folders .

I deleted the entire GTA folder. I explained that in the original post. It was the first thing I did.
