Hey Guys,
I'm having the somewhat common loader.loader failure that is causing LCDPFR to fail to start in-game. The weird thing is, the game and LCPDFR were working just fine until late yesterday afternoon. I don't think I changed anything other than some settings in my ELS 8 file related to the light speed. I have searched the loader.loader error on the forums and have tried multiple fixes suggested b the Dev Team. I even tried installing an earlier version of LCPDFR 1.0a. I searched my scripthookdotnet.log and found an error that I haven't seen on the support forums.
Error during Tick in script 'LCPDFR_Loader.Loader':
System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file 'C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonGrand Theft Auto IVGTAIVLCPD First Response.dll' because it is being used by another process.
Anyway, I've posted the entire scripthookdotnet.log below. Hope you guys can help, and thanks in advance!

Edit
As always happens, once I posted in the support folder I managed to fix the problem. I removed all plugins from the plugin folder. I uninstalled LCPDFR and then did a clean manual install. Used Xliveless as my loader and it worked fine although it would not allow me to use my previous savegame. I then swithed to the dsound loader and was able to go back and use my old save games. I think the issue was that I put Wooters Callouts in the scripts folder and not the plugin folder yesterday. I feel dumb. Anyway, hope this post can help folks who have issues at a later date.
