Title: Steam
Post by: Infamous on August 04, 2011, 08:44:38 pm

Hi there, this has proberly been mentioned many times but I am struggling to find a solid answer.

I have been a SA-MP player for years now and would like to come back to VC-MP although I can't remeber if the steam version will work with this mod.

If anyone can give me a clear answer or an alternative way of purchasing the game without getting it from a store then it would be greatly appreciated.

It must work with this, but only if the version is 1.0 not 1.1

The steam executable does not work with VC:MP since its not a normal 1.0 or 1.1 exe.

You could use it with a different exe though. i use a nocd on my steam copy and it works fine :)

"Steam's VC" is 2.0, just to let you know. Read at gtaf.

Ok thanks for the information guys, will just swap the .exe to 1.0 and hope for the best lol.

Swapping out the .exe itself should work just fine. Thanks to a user I spoke with on MTA forums, apparently aside from extra files Steam adds, there is nothing modified in the Steam version compared to any other besides the gta-vc.exe file.

Worked great and have been enjoying some good old gameplay.

Thanks for helping with my issue guys.
