well delete the file again if its still in there then if u have ati graphics card u got to the ati site, if u have nvidia then u go to there site, and after u deleted that file, u gotta run the same in sp sort your res and controls out, then start game in sp after all the cut scenes quit game, reinstall mta then try

You kno wen u say :well delete the file again if its still in there then if u have ati graphics card u got to the ati site, if u have nvidia then u go to there site, and after u deleted that file. Which file do u mean gta-vc.set?

And wtf is sp?

[darkdreamingdan]

yes i also had this problem once.

Go to My Documents -> GTA Vice City User FIles and delete the gta-vc.set file, ull lose all your control settings, but MTA will work

[orappa]

And wtf is sp?

Single player.

o ok thanks

i located the folder of Gta vice city user files but its not called Gta vice city user files its called Gta LC user files which was deleted ages ago. Also there was a file inside it called GTAVCsf1.b, should i delete this? Would this solve my problem?

[Si|ent]

Erm. You have to have Vice City installed for MTA to work with it...

[Brophy]

erm, u must have a clean install of vice city with no mods

Also there was a file inside it called GTAVCsf1.b, should i delete this? Would this solve my problem?

That's just the savegame file, don't delete it unless you want to complete everything again.

I'd say the safest solution is to get a fresh install of VC installed, then reinstall Multi Theft Auto. Just get rid of that LC crap

i kno i installed it with no mods onit? I think it was still on my pc the mod files and probably thats y it wont work. Also single player doesnt work i tryed it nuthin happens.

No.

If single player doesn't work then the problem obviously isn't with MTA. My advice: uninstall GTA and then go to your Program Files directory and make sure that all of the files are gone (if not, delete them). Then delete your gta-vc.set file in My Documents and reinstall GTA and then MTA.

You could also try installing newer video, sound and/or chipset drivers (it wouldn't hurt).

ok i will try that but got to have a game of counterstrike!
