PrecautionarySweep

Thanks, and sorry for my late response. I had tried restarting my PC multiple times, but that didn't solve it. I have decided to try reinstalling everything – including the game – and see if that works. Should know by tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

When I launch RagePluginHook it progresses all the way to "Launching game via Steam..." After that, Rockstar Games Launcher opens, followed by GTA V, but it's just the vanilla version of the game. If I Alt+Tab out of the game, RagePluginHook appears to be stuck on "Launching game via Steam...". If I press the exit button, I get the error message "Unable to launch game, please verify your game data". I have tried verifying my game data twice through Steam but this hasn't fixed it. I have also tried opening the game first and then launching RAGE, but then it says "Error: Grand Theft Auto V is already running" Any suggestions on what my next steps should be to fix this?

Hi! Really looking forward to giving LSPDFR a try. I have been having some trouble getting it to start, and feel I have exhausted my options trying to find a solution through carefully following the installation instructions or by watching videos on YouTube. I bought GTA V from Steam and have 20+ hours of gameplay saved. I manually installed LSPDFR and then updated the Rage Plugin Hook to match the current game version. When I open Rage Plugin Hook and view the Plugins tab, I have "LSPD First Response" checked to load on startup. If I click "Save and Launch", the game will open but it seems to be the vanilla version with no active plugins. I have tried to Alt-Tab out of the window to see what Rage Plugin Hook is doing, and it gets stuck saying "Launching game via Steam..." In short, I launch the game via Rage Plugin Hook – and I believe I have LSPDFR installed correctly – but it just launches the game normally as if I've opened it through Steam. I hope I am not missing something terribly obvious!
