I am very glad to hear that! :)

I'm not really sure what that is (I do not currently have a computer with GTA IV installed, so I can't check my folder structure).

Yep, I'm crossing my fingers over here!

Hopefully it'll work :)

Yes, but the installer comes with files needed to load scripts mods, and some might be outdated. Use the manual installation package and overwrite any files.

You don't actually have to remove anything, just use the manual installer and overwrite any files. Just make sure that you use only dsound or xlive .dll. Note: The Hotfix is included in the manual install.

Just a quick question, when installing LCPDFR, did you use the manual installation package?

Try and reinstall LCPDFR with the manual installer, since you could be missing some files releated to script loading.

Alright good, just checking! Do that, hopefully it will work and is a easy fix!

So, now it crashes because of the vehicle mods you think?

Have you tried to launch the game without the saves, then? I would recommend you to install the taser manually, as one of the steps is to remove that file (>www.lcpdfr.com/topic/25936-how-to-manually-install-the-lcpdfr-taser-in-lcpdfr-10/?p=204104).

For that you will have to read the manual. It's all clearly presented in there.

Sure do that, I hope it'll work.

Okay, so remove dsound instead. You can't have both, that is the main point since that will cause crashes.

You appear to be using both xlive and dsound, you will have to remove either of these files. Preferably "xlive.dll".

.. and you did install LCPDFR manually? :)

I see, that's not good. Could I see a screenshot of your GTA IV folder please?

Are you running the game as administrator? That solves a wide variety of issues.

I use them both, and I haven't encountered any errors with either of these scripts.

Hm that is weird. I have this one commandline, do you mind trying it out? It'll force the game to minimum settings. -renderquality 0 -shadowdensity 0 -texturequality 0 -viewdistance 0 -detailquality 0 -novblank -norestrictions -percentvidmem 100 -minspecaudio -novsync -renderquality 0 -frameLimit 0 -nomemrestrict If you feel there's an improvement, try using this one instead: -novblank -norestrictions -percentvidmem 100 -novsync -frameLimit 0 -nomemrestrict Let me know how it goes.

You and me both actually, it's really weird. I'm kind of stumped as what do do.

Well, it should add it to the game. Me personally didn't have any issues with the taser, but others who did have that issue used that method and it worked for them. Different for everyone though I guess. EDIT: Okay that is weird. I'd say you are missing the actual model files then, which really shouldn't happen. Could I bother to ask you to reinstall LCPDFR with the manual installation (again lol). Hotfix isn't needed, it is included in that pack. Hopefully that will work.

I'm not sure what could be wrong, sounds like some kind of corruption. Could you try OpenIV instead?

Just uninstall GTA IV, delete any left over files and install the game again. Apply latest patch. Try it. If it crashes on launch, it's a fault with GTA IV, and not LCPDFR-

At this time I think a clean install would be advisable. I'm not really sure what could be wrong.
