You can save your game fine. It;s the same as any GFWL game in that you need an offline profile to save your game.

Little question for the experienced guys and legit owners of just (and only) original bought GTAIV (not the EFLC) Retail DVD Version.

Like I said, I've bought GTAIV and what I want to know is... is there a way to install the (not so legit) Episodes (from RELOADED) without any harm for my legit GTA4? And am I able to play the Episodes online too? If so, what do I have to do exactly? (I've got a bunch unused GFWL Keys. Just in case Very Happy )

Help would be highly appreciated Razz

Guys, just use an online profile with auto-signing but don't let the games connect, so that they start in offline mode.

Then you can see your achievements on the Xbox Live site, too.

If you use an offline profile, you can forget about achievements/stats.

You can make one for Tinker, I believe.

You only need ONE activation to create one, then set it to auto-sign in Very Happy

Works fine on MP, didn't have to to even enter a key.? Played a bit, uninstalled GTA IV a long time ago, so can't answer about that part. Odd the game runs on MP without a key, no? lol.

Saves work in either online or offline too

You probably need to fiddle with the registry.

I've been trying to find a tool to manage that thing, I'll make a thread in the Application section right now.

right i figured it out.

basically all the stuff in the gameux thing loads from a combo of the registry and a dll in the game folder called

EFLCGDF.dll (for gta iv its GTAIVGDF.dll etc etc for other games)

now, what I wanted to do was hex edit that and change all the pointers for LaunchEFLC.exe to LaunchEFLCc.exe

this doesnt work as if you add extra characters it fucks up the validity of the dll and the game explorer icon is unusable.

next i tried being clever and changing the cracked exe name to something with the same number of characters (LaunchEFLD.exe)

that doesnt work as the cracked exe (for some reason) HAS to be named LaunchEFLCc.exe

then i figured fuuuuuck and had an epiphany. SHORTCUTS!

made a shortcut of LaunchEFLCc.exe, called it LaunchEFLC

which essentially universally names it LaunchEFLC.lnk

this has the same number of chars as the original LaunchEFLC.exe pointers, so I just hex-edited that so that all my pointers in

EFLCGDF.dll

read

LaunchEFLC.lnk instead of LaunchEFLC.exe

and voila! as long as there is a shortcut called LaunchEFLC.lnk in the game folder it will launch that

in turn launching LaunchEFLCc.exe properly and creating an orgasmic seamlessness for all pirates to enjoy.

basically if you do as i did find all instances of

4C 00 61 00 75 00 6E 00 63 00 68 00 45 00 46 00 4C 00 43 00 2E 00 65 00 78 00 65

and replace them with

4C 00 61 00 75 00 6E 00 63 00 68 00 45 00 46 00 4C 00 43 00 2E 00 6C 00 6E 00 6B

in EFLCGDF.dll

make sure to have backups!!

Any1 knows why MP doesn't want to work for me? Installed Roc. Social Club, used my online GFWL profile, didn't even need to enter key(I had original GTA IV), get into the game, cellphone, MP and then Ranked or Player Match. And it doesn't find me not even a single match? What's wrong here?

I thought someone might have mentioned that, and I tried doing that as well as changing the program exe path in the registry... no dice for eflc at least... maybe its a windows 7 thing because the game explorer does seem a bit more restricted in customization.

lol i wouldnt go through something that complicated for no reason, would i? either way it was kinda fun

For me it's the other way around.

I have retail versions of both games.

GTA IV runs very smoothly with patch 6 installed, but EfLC becomes unplayable whenever I get near water.

Thankgod! I stopped playing GTA4 because of frame rates dropping to 10. Horrible horrible coding. Ill give this game a try hoping it will run fine. It cant be any worse than GTA4.

Yes, it can be worse then the original thanks to the new shadow system. Try it but don't expect too much.
