WiLLiAm Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 That's what it says! And I cannot reinstall the game, since a friend has borrowed the CDs. What can I do to prevent this? I don't have anything modified, expect two new skins, and I removed them, but it says the same thing. Help!
BMS_Clan Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Mine Did this 2, On a clean install, It took me 2 reinstalls until it worked. oh btw I dont think its owt to do with skins cos U cant use custom skins in MTA. u will need to reinstall it probably, Just go get the cd's or if ur m8 wont give u them download the isos (I know not to be discussed on here but he has the orignal and ur allowed to make 1 backup copy and so that is practically what he wud be doing) Please dont ban me *cowers in a corner with a white flag*
WiLLiAm Posted September 21, 2003 Author Posted September 21, 2003 I can reinstall MTA. But reinstalling VC is not a possibility for me now, because I can't get in contact with that friend right now. Isn't there any other way?
Alex3305 Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I think not, I think you are scr**ed (sorry for the language).. Or u must know other ppl with the CD...
WiLLiAm Posted September 21, 2003 Author Posted September 21, 2003 *SIGH* Why must this mod be such a pain in the ass sometimes! And I know it is just a beta, but that doesn't stop me from being fricken annoyed
Alex3305 Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I'm annoyed tooo because it still doesn't work with me and no one of the moderators or someone is replaying I have some strange Error Messeage (Check this board for more info)
Cray Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 That error means that one of the files is not from the original installation of VC. Make sure you have the mta.scm from MTA:VC 0.2 and have not altered your weapon.dat or handling.cfg files.
Guest Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I have the same problem, its a clean install, no modded files. What do I do? Keep reinstalling??!
Guest Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I'm assuming you have your play cd with you. What u need to do here is to: 1. Go to your Windows directory. 2. Edit the MTA.ini file to point to your VC directory and the correct EXE. [Main] Nick=**** IP=**** Port=**** SavePass=**** Password=**** GameVersion=**** [Remote Admin] Username=**** SavePass=**** Password=**** IP=******* Port=**** [game-exe] location=C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\gta-vc.exe 3. edit the location at the bottom. Point to Vice City EXE [gta-vc.exe] It should be : \gta-vc.exe (replace vice city root with the appropiate dir and take the brackets out) *** Please note, it's in the MTA 0.2 FAQ, scroll down to the bottom. [/code]
WiLLiAm Posted September 21, 2003 Author Posted September 21, 2003 I looked in the .ini file, and the exe command is pointing to the right .exe file. I don't know what is wrong really, it keeps saying the same thing, and I just did a fresh reinstall. *SIGH*
Cray Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 If it is still saying incorrect files, then something is wrong. Either the exe is pointing wrong, or the mta.scm handling.cfg or weapon.dat file has been modified at some point since installation. Make sure you are running the mta.scm file that was shipped with MTA:VC 0.2 and make sure that you are using the handling.cfg and weapon.dat files from the original installation of the game.
