[gta:samp fix | crashing when entering cars/buildings]

[Stefan Heiler]

Okay, well. I can't post this shit in the guides section, so I guess I'll have to post it in here.

People have been having the issue where they enter cars or buildings and crash. I've found a fix for this. This occurs due to steam having removed certain audio files from the GTA:SA directory, meaning that players crash around boomboxes, when they enter cars and houses.

STEP 1




Download this. This is an .ini file, you'll have to have to have a .ini launcher to use it (a single file you drag into your GTA:SA directory).

Here's the .ini launcher. You'll need to drag that into your GTA:SA directory too, preferably before you drag the files above into your GTA:SA directory.

STEP 2




Okay, so, now that we've installed those, we need to downgrade your GTA:SA. We'll be downgrading it to a point where Rockstar/Steam didn't remove the songs. This is the downgrade link:

After you've downloaded that, and installed it into your GTA:SA directory, it should work!



Extras:




If for some reason you get 'Unknown Version', it's because of the GTA-SA.exe you have. It needs to be one of these:

USA 1.01 (http://megagames.com/fixes/grand-theft-auto-san-andreas-v101-eu)
USA 2.00
EU 1.01
EU 2.00
GER 1.01
GER 1.00



Happy SA:RP'ing!

Aw, I know that the Steam update ruined the game for many, but for those that haven't installed it and still crash when entering cars:

1. Remove every audio file in your "SteamApps\common\Grand Theft Auto San Andreas\audio\streams" EXCEPT "AA", "ADVERTS", "AMBIENCE", "BEATS" and "CUTSCENE". Having the radios in cars crashed me every time I tried to enter a car. After this fix, I never crash.

Just thought I should mention this here for those who don't have the problem with the Steam update but still crash.

inb4 Helper Team goes nuts on you, this section is apparently for "approved guides" or whatever from the PR group.

This has been approved by 'Henderson'.

Good guide, I crash less whilst playing SA:RP now +1.

I doubt so. However he moved it to "old guide & tutorials" section anyways. He can easily ask a PR member to get his tutorial into the main section =)

Follow the actual steps which has been already mentioned above, if these steps don't help you and you still require assistance try to successfully neitralize /your/ modifications if you've installed them before if you have not reinstall the GTA San Andreas game and enjoy your stay.
