The Steam version is planned to be supported in 0.4. For now, check out Zeruel's response. Happy playing!

Thank you stormeous! You made me happy with this answer.
And ZeruelHD, thank you for your tip, but I prefer to not modify the game at all. I'll play single player missions meanwhile :)
Another question: What's the difference between 1.0 and 1.1? ???

What's the difference between 1.0 and 1.1?

The 1.1 patch for Vice City was a very, very minor patch that fixed some problems people were reporting with polygon corruption back in 2003/2004. It's not a prevalent issue, and no one reports it nowadays even with a 1.0 EXE, but the problem with 1.1 is that it almost completely rearranges the way memory is structured, making it more annoying to reverse engineer it when all the addresses that were discovered had changed.

Oh, okay, so I'll be patient.

You can actually keep your steam version exe.
If you want to play VCMP you just point the client to the 1.0 exe.

If you are interested in installing mods for your Vice City, you should take 1.0 anyway. Every VC mod works on the 1.0 version, but not many on 1.1.

I don't understand what are you saying. Could you explain me please?

Well the VC:MP client asks you to locate your VC:MP directory doesn't it. I imagine it would be something along the lines of moving the steam.exe somewhere else and simply placing the 1.0 exe in the Grant Theft Auto directory. It'll just detect the 1.0 version and launch the game.

Nope. Steam downloads the game in a folder, just like installing it with CD. If I do this I'll replace the executable file, or not?
