Now i know i've been posting a lot on the forums since im back with GTA but i keep having more and more problems. Now a lot of my posts were about the crap error known as SMPA60..........Its now making my game un playable in a way. Its every. 5. minutes -_- smpa60, smpa60 CTD, Gta.exe has stopped working...C,mon What the hell? Am i installing something wrong... Here....For example. sometimes when i install car mods they are named something likeeee police2 (For both model and texture files)...Well sometimes i rename them and use them on another car (I like certian cars to patrol and certian ones to be called in or ETC/Extra cars) Would that cause it or is it just a general GTA problem ( i know a lot of people or even everyone who mods almost gets it, But i see vids on YOUTUBE of people playing LCPDFR with EVERY SINGLE ONE of their cars modded and they can record and play for an hour to 2 hours straight without crash.) Would my computer being that its shit cause a problem with it? It's the SMPA60 type thats just annoying and crashes cause of mods. Not because im saving a car and modding it, I don't keep cars at my save point. Is there anything i can do to fix this OR! even not "FIX" it completly, I'd love to play GTA with my mods for at least a while (1-2 hours) Without crashing. Any way to make this better so i can play gta with mods (Which is more fun since i've played the story like 30 times). I'll stop posting about this i just hope to get an answer/explanation + The fact i have to play my GTA on low cause of lag (Gamebooster seems to have took away SOME of it once in a while but not much...Also defragged the directory) Oh and, Just because I mentioned LCPDFR in my post DOES NOT mean i'm trying to post about LCPDFR support. This is a general modding/GTA problem ( So please don't close my thread, I know you guys don't take LCPDFR help support, I just really want a solid answer besides "Oh yeah i get that too" Or "hurr durr its cus u saive car n mod it" cause its not that i don't save my cars :P.. And if it's from ONE of my modded cars....I wouldn't know which...The cars i have modded are the Enforcer (NOOSE) Police, police2, 3 and 4 and some others....Unmodded are police bike, FIB, Noose car (Not sure name). I DO have copy's of my vehicles.img (Backed up this time :D) But I don't see how my modded cars just cause this error. That's all, Just looking for a Technical and a SOLID answer/HOPEFUL solution to make my game run LONGER...than 10 minutes until i crash

Solved. Only happens when my EFLC folder is on read only (Which happens every comp restart)

Nope, Cause i already have to start gta in administrator (Otherwise it gives me an error, When mods are installed you must run as admin) But thanks for the suggestion I can barley play gta anymore cause of SMPA60 anyways =/

When i launch GTA 4:EFLC after choosing the game (TBoGT) and logging in to my account, On my desktop a message says "gta4browser.exe has stopped working" Then another window along with it asking if i want to report this to microsoft. It doesn't crash my game nor effect it ( I hope) I can simply hit enter and hit "Don't send report" then the game continues loading, I just want to know what it means/If it does effect my game at all....

It's pretty easy installing all this, The LCPDFR installer is automatic you just have to find your GTA directory, Any other scripts you download (.dll, .ini and ASI loaders) Go in scripts, ETC. However modding it to your PS3 is illegal so just stick with it on PC :p.....Also don't just go right off the bat and INSTALL lcpdfr, Run the game test out settings, See if you can run it first without lag. Once you install mods your gonna get more lag and crashing issues. GTA 4 is a pain in the ass because you need a good sustainable computer that can handle its graphics and such and once you install car mods/Lcpdfr its gonna lag more.....Also don't save a car at a save point and then mod your car thats saved.....Thats the shitty error known as SMPA60. As far as installing other stuff usually it has a readme :P You get used to it. Vehicles you can download with GTA vehicle mod installer (Just search it up) Pretty much it. and if you do lag, You can get something like contig and defrag your directory to make your game run faster.....You'll find solutions. Hope this helped How dafuq u do that :P i have a laptop AMD raedon, 6 gigs of RAM Some type of nvidia for my graphics card....Actually similar to what you said, Laptop and i have to run GTA on low after defragging with contig and a commandline.txt to stop lag....Yet and i still lag on low and optimized from all that.....How much did you pay for ur comp or did you build it?

It's not a matter of system/Console you can only use the smoke from parachuting in Multiplayer. Does not work in singleplayer, PC, XBOX, PS3 all work but it only does it in multiplayer. Only way you could do it in single player is if someone released a mod for it on the PC. Basically, Yeah it works on both Ps3 and Xbox 360.....Not sure about PC cause i don't play TBoGT (Without mods) on PC. Hope that answers your question.

The computer was on sale for $500 normally like $650-$700

I'll get you what i can bare with me HP Envy laptop (Win 8) Processor: AMD A8-4500M APU with Raedon HD Graphics (4 CPU's) 1.9Ghz (Says it runs at 2.9Ghz under task manager i think i bought it overclocked) (Note: My CPU goes to shit cause of my crap cooling fans they dont do their job and my comp overheats) RAM: 6GB (5.59 Usable GB) DirectX 11 Err....Graphics card is a type of Nvidia i know that....Can't find the rest of my specs right now, That should be good enough

Happend to me yesterday, After i Re-installed GTA for some reason my save remained so i made a brand new game and saved it.......How the hell does a save game get corrupted anyways, What is there to do wrong or does it just kind of happen.

I know some technical stuff but not enough to build my own computer.....As for getting someone to do it for me i have a guy who can build custom computers, I just play steam a lot with friends and most of them were bugging me to get a new computer so i just kind of grabbed this as quick and cheap, I plan on getting a desktop like i said or maybe a custom computer build....Idk.....Also the prices. Not rich or not enough money right now to invest into a computer and getting one build allthough is cheaper but still can be pricey if you want good hardware. I just await the day i get a good computer to play games with no lag on medium or high (Not gta, Gta is stubborn as fuck you need a good computer to play that shit on high without crappy FPS even though it looks amazing)

Regarding the error in GTA known as GTA IV: FATAL ERROR: SMPA60 please restart your game. I read online and in the explanation pinned on the forums that its when you save a car, Mod that car and try to load in in the save. That makes sense, What i want to know is, WHY does it crash my gta with mods OVERALL. I have LCPDFR and other mods installed, including ELS police cars. Whenever I have less of them the game crashes in less time. I have about 4 modded cars right now and it takes about 20 minutes before the game eventually does SMPA60. If anyone knows a "Technical" explanation about why it does it with modded cars in general, I'd be ok reading it (AKA if you say it in technical terms i'll know exactly what your talking about). I just want to know why SMPA60 happens when i have car mods, Not even saved any cars at ANY safehouses and the more i have the faster the game crashes. What causes this overload to CTD? It would be very nice if I could play LCPDFR (And trust me, I love LCPDFR I'm into that type of shit) For more than 20 minutes without crashing, Since GTA takes a while to launch.....Then load.....Then i have to pick my uniform, Car, bla bla bla ETC ETC.

Well due to the fact my old SHITTIER computer that couldn't even run GTA or any games barley broke, And this windows 8 was the cheapets only thing i could get....I asked the guy i bought it from about downgrading but i couldn't buy a downgrade disc for windows 7....Plus this is an HP pretty much windows 8 computer, I hope to get a desktop soon cause this is a laptop ;-; i mean it plays stuff like garry's mod and steam games that i play and some like these on the side. I honestly don't really like windows 8, It runs tons of programs and fancy crap in the background lagging the SHIT out of my CPU which is bad already. I know, Made the mistake of not before i did this time.

Ugh....This has to be the 5th thread i've posted about support in the past day :P I just re-installed GTA IV - EFLC due to problems and now another one lays ahead of me.....I launch the game, Normal loading so far then after the two rockstar logo's appear and the music drifts off, into the game choose menu (TBoGT or TLAD) the game crashes. No error, Just either LaunchGtaIV.exe has stopped working or EFLC.EXE has stopped working RIGHT as it hits that screen......I'm getting tired of GTA being stupid with my computer, If problems still go on as sadly as i don't wanna do it but i'd have to give up on gta until i get a better computer/desktop....Anything im doing wrong? I installed the update (I'm on windows 8) but still that crash. This is a FRESH install off of steam just today so i don't see why its doing this :c. Any help would be appreciated EDIT: I put runasadmin in one of the folders and it seems to have fixed it.....You know...This could just be marked as solved but while im here, Is gta just REALLY this anal to handle? Its so complicated with mods and how this game runs, It needs a VERY good computer to run it....Idk.....But i'm going to SLOWLY and CAREFULLY install mods...

Yeah i think i'm going to.....now when i start the game i get EFLC fatal error: SMPA30 and i cant even start the game......i'm going to make a backup of the original files this time.

Hi, I recently attempted to install a few more car mods after fixing a bug causing my games render distance to screw up, Now a new problem is ahead of me....I can't install car mods first off and this causes another problem. bassicly GTA isnt reading american.gxt which is causing 2 things. Unable to install mods cause its detecting a missing file, and rendering gta unplayable. When i start the game there is NO text on the screen at the choose menu, Eventually freezing and crashing the game. I think the american.gxt file is corrupted or just plain unreadable. I didn't back up but is there any way to fix this WITHOUT reinstalling? Re-Install would be my VERY last resort to fix a problem with this game, but for now its just not reading the language/text file (EFLC/Common/Text/American.gxt is the one thats unreadable/Corrupted)

Just re-installed gta eflc today, But i can't launch it from steam, From the folder or anything. I'm on a windows 8 computer ( I assume this is why but i've played this game modded and non modded on win 8 before...) If i launch the game from folder with launcher it gives me SetLaunch error which is fixed by running as admin, If i run as admin all goes normal launcher opens hit play.....Game never opens...If i launch it from Steam the game opens launcher i hit play......Game just right away crashing without even showing a window or a error message. Anything to fix this, Or anything im doing wrong? No mods are installed currently i was going to play first then make a save and then install the mods but seems like i can't even open it. EDIT: I saw the windows 8 pinned thread about how to run this in windows 8, This was solved!

Thanks!

I'm reinstalling GTA after a while of not playing it, And also might install some car skins/mods. Specifically police cars. Which one is the one that cruises around the most? In gta I've noticed there's like cruiser, patrol, etc. Which one of those is the one you see most or does that go by which car YOU are currently driving? Cause i'd like certain skins on certain cars if I'm going to see them around a lot. Sorry if this is a stupid question =/

lol thats not hard to press a button.

I like that idea, Maybe drive them inside the jail or the police station and if you drive them to the jail, have them just appear into the orange jumpsutit and walk around the prison (But on the other hand you would have to make the gate open when you pull up to it, The one infront of already jail.) But good idea. You guys should download Bravehearts Policing script. It has about 5-10 more calls then the original LCPD:FR and also they are more realistic and fun, I don't use normal callouts anymore. Link:

I never played 0.91 but the second idea is a good one, Because VERY occasionally (But still annoying enough) Calling prisoner transport will freeze your game or crash it sometimes. Also its a hassle waiting for them to get to the scene, Regarding how retarded the AI drivers are on the street (Which i hope they fixed in GTA V)

That would be sort of unnecessary in a way (And non realistic) As in real life or in a situation police don't go to the right side of the door (Passenger door) and they would have to script the AI to move to the other seat for that to happen.
