screens plz error reports

Well, I removed all traces of the ASI and then put it back, and the game launched without incident. Must have been either a fluke or some kind of mistake on my part, sorry for the confusion. When the game did crash however, it started the loading sequence and then immediately crashed to desktop with a generic "send error report" message.

QUOTE (Gforce @ Apr 9 2009, 00:22) hey Alex, i love you for all the effort you've put into GTA modding over recent times, including all your SA work with Cleo etc, but maybe it's time to go the XLiveless route and kill things before GFWL and truly make this a single player only modification, this way you kill any possible online modding crap and we can get on with what we really want to do, which is "Genuine" offline GTA modding anyway , i can use xlivless in my plugs and what we will have ? nothing because of unoficial script hook etc ... cheating it's a time-question

Exactly, and this particular asi is also available with the check for handling.dat and weaponsinfo.xml removed....

[Alexander Blade]

i saw , it's not me
my bugged anticheat fixes this
maybe im crazy or i was drunked when ive started anticheat project for client-based game )

You should of added a check, seeing if you're on freeroam or not, so that it doesn't disable stuff, because the whole point in you making this mod is to allow blocked content, and if this is supposed to block weapon modding, it doesn't, I've seen one person with a rocket MP5, so you obviously didn't make it block it.

Sjaak, give me the link to that please :v

Edit, found it, don't need a link and it works awesome.
f*ck you rockstar, we has mp modding again so bite us.

Get your facts straight before flaming, f*cktard. Alex actually said earlier in this thread that there is a hacked version of this asi which wasn't made by him.

Also, good work Alex, the updated version works now.

If you have VC++, coding knowledge, IDA, it's not too hard to find out how to get rid of the file check.

is there anyway to use xliveless savegames with LIVE enabled?

i tried to put them in the old folder but game fails to load them...

[nemesi5]

Tried them with ultimate graphics tweak, doesn't work. Blocks me from mp, and thats the only mod I have, help? I downloaded Alice and ASIloader, I place the reloaded filecheck and the current one in the Alice folder, they don't work. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong or does this filecheck block the tweak too?

[EDIT] The following does not appear to work for v1.0.3.0 savegames, the file format seems to have changed and the account info is apparently encrypted.

Savegames saved with xLiveless do not have an xLive account number recorded in the file, the xLiveless savegames are also saved into a different folder than xLive enabled savegames. There is a thread about how to recover a "lost xLive account" and the procedure detailed there describes how to insert an xLive account number into any savegame.

An xLiveless savegame has zeroes recorded in the savegame file, it might have an old account number if you converted an xLive game to an xLiveless game. I would think that inserting a 'real' xLive account number and putting the savegame file into a 'real' xLive savegame folder would permit that savegame to run.

Note that you can use this process to convert an xLive 'offline' savegame to an xLive 'online' savegame, but you may not get any 'offline' achievements to be recorded to the 'online' xLive account. Although, I have read a post that said that if you saved your game once in 'online' mode that the xLive account would be synchronized with the savegame, I haven't tried it so I can't verify that that is true.

I'll go look up that thread and post the link here if I can find it. [EDIT] Again, this process does not appear to work for v1.0.3.0 savegames.

Here is the link: Loading savegame, when XLive account gone.

Will this allow the Super Spawner Script to work in MP so my buddies and I can free mode it up?

[nemesi5]

Ahh, I realized what was wrong, I forgot I still had Alice on my GTA IV directory, it works now. Cheers! and thank you Alexander.

No, because mods are not allowed in MP.

If you've used xLiveless it is because you wanted to use mods in SP.

There are other ways to enable mods in MP and they all violate R*'s current MP policy of no mods in MP, so I won't tell you how to do that. Hint: Seek and ye shall find.

I hope Rockstar updates/changes their policy soon. Using a spawner with your buddies in free mode is almost a necessity.

[hatorijr]

modding in a game is never a necessity, its a want, that is clearly all it is. if it was a necessity, rockstar would have included such functionality into mp simple as that.

thanks for the really detailed answer

[pigs18]

Good Work. But, MP doesn't work with this patch.
Cellphone said still Can't join with modified file.

I install to modified handling.dat file. and filecheckfix.log said "incorrect file."

Maybe, Some users are working good or not.

[wachumanango]

it seems like adding user info to a xliveless savegame wont be possible, i cant find where to put/replace user id in the savegame, cant even find it in a legit savegame

I wonder if it can be possible to dissable savegame check by an asi plugin just like xlive wrapper used to do, but keeping funcional MP

Alexander do you think thats even possible?

[Alexander Blade]

2pigs18 : r u drunked ?
i'd wrote in readme that u CAN'T CHANGE SUSPICIOUS FILES

2wachumanango : i can but there is one big trouble - original xlive.dll checks the memory , so if i'll modify some code and this code should be modifed all time - live check will give a game crash (like it was in first version of car spawner etc)

Sorry about that, the file format of a v1.0.3.0 savegame apparently was changed and encrypted so the xLive account number is no longer in plain text (or plain hex).

I should have looked at one of my v1.0.3.0 savegame files first.
