Overview
Original disc version of GTA IV uses GFWLfor savegames and SecuROM DRM. GTA IV repacks usually ship with obsoletemethods to run GTA IV: GFWL emulator (Xliveless) and SecuROM crack (Razor1911).XlivelessAddon is THE method to run any version of GTAIV offline. It hasintegrated XLiveless, SecuROM patch, menu skip.
XlivelessAddon is the preferredmethod to run GTA IV – game starts through GTAIV.exe
-Can run all 13 versions of GTAIV:
Grand Theft Auto IV v1.0.0.0-1.0.8.0
Grand Theft Auto IV Episodes from Liberty City v1.1.0.0, 1.1.1.0, 1.1.2.0,1.1.3.0
-Workaround for VRAM detection on older patches.Detects minimum 2Gb of video memory in 1.0.4.0.
-Savegames are in%USERPROFILE%DocumentsRockstar GamesGTA IVsavegames by default.
-May specify explicit savegame path inXLivelessAddon.ini, Xliveless/catspaw/XLivelessAddon savegames are compatible. Touse e.g. catspaw's xlive savegame dir:
CustomSavePath = '{DRIVE}:Users{USERNAME}AppDataLocalRockstarGamesGTA IVsavegamesuser_1122334400000000'
-It is possible to launch GTAIV.exe/EFLC.exedirectly (except EFLC.exe v1.1.0.0 and v1.1.1.0), without drunk camera or errorappearing. No need for LaunchGTAIV.exe and Razor1911
-Doesn't hang on startup, SkipIntro should worknow on all GTAIV executables.
-Skip menu and load straight into the game
-Borderless windowed mode
-RemoveRegistryPathDependency now works for allexecutables (latter versions of IV do not use InstallPath registry value)
-GFWL DLC support
Step-by-step guide
1.Download XLivelessAddon and unpack to GTA IV folder
2.(Optionally) configure pluginsXLivelessAddon.ini,you may set SkipIntro, SkipMenu, also CustomSettingsPath and VRAMFix are veryuseful for 1.0.4.0
3.To run as non-admin user clear checkbox'Run this program as an Administrator' on Compatibility tab forboth LaunchGTAIV.exe AND GTAIV.exe
4.Start the game through GTAIV.exe
If the game doesn't start with error 'The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect...' it usually means runtime problem and you need to download and install vcredist_x86.exe from Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 redistributable.
ATTENTION: if the game starts through GTAIV.exe and you get 'drunk camera' it is a symptom of some conflict that prevents addon from loading and injecting the fix. Make sure that you don't have any other asi loader left in GTA folder (xlive.dll from addon is a renamed Ultimate ASI Loader), e.g. move dsound.dll and dinput8.dll away and move all .asi files away, and make sure that the only asi file you have is XLivelessAddon.asi in plugins. Then after you successfully launch the game you may add .asi files one by one and find out which one conflicts with XLivelessAddon.
DLC running specifics - the type of game you are starting or loading must be the same as running in current session. If you start a new game of different type e.g. currently playing TLAD and starting new TBOGT game it may crash the game, for details see 'Running with XlivelessAddon' section here.
Obsolete methods – game startsthrough LaunchGTAIV.exe
This section is for reference only and maybe skipped.
Razor1911 SecuROM crack
1.The most common old method LaunchGTAIV.exe/1911.dll + Xlivelessworks for 1.0.4.0+. Used in Xatab 1.0.7.0 repack.
28.06.2009 12:56 169984 1911.dll (compressed with UPX 2.01, hasRazor1911 logo and sound on start)
28.06.2009 12:56 73728 LaunchGTAIV.exe (Standard Razor1911 launcher)
45944658e93e052eb631dbb4fd5a3d97*1911.dll
3e9b3dc03cd5c2e658dd731b616fdcf1*LaunchGTAIV.exe
2.Another version of uncompressed (maybe newer) 1911.dll
19.11.2016 20:11 161280 1911.dll (has Razor1911 logo and sound on start andRazor777! text inside)
50cf921ee71c952ba5a598e4cc970c4b*1911.dll
3.FitGirl 1.0.8.0 repack uses 1911.dll fixed by DZ87 that has noannoying Razor1911 logo and sound on start
e4528b913f859bc04d2cc2952e5f20d3*1911.dll
29.08.2011 05:49 169984 1911.dll (newer silent crack, compressed with UPX3.09)
4.There is a version floating around (in “IV & DLC Downgradev3.3.ZIP” pack) that has LaunchGTAIV.exe/1911.dll renamed asplayGTAIV.exe/play.dll so that it could be run from Steam. GTA will not startby default from playGTAIV.exe, the pack uses ZolikaPatch and Patch8PlayGTAIV=1 setin ZolikaPatch.ini file to work around this.
Reloaded crack
Not recommended as it uses patched 1.0.7.0exe and is not compatible with GTAIV.exe from official Rockstar patches. Usedin FitGirl 1.0.7.0 repack.
