yea why? It works with other games but not GTA.. I want to switch from SA to VC and to LC or SAiVC whenever I feel like..

What do you mean? does it give you an error or something?

Edit: Oh I see, I tried opening one before the other, SA first then VC and then reversed the process, still no luck. I dont understand why they would be conflicting, for me, depending on what the second game I start is, it just stops mid loading bar and then when I Ctrl-Alt-Del it says not responding. right in the middle, for both games. Whatever the second game I load is wont get past half way on the loading bar. Thats very strange, it seems it should have a simple fix but I dont know.

Where's Neo? He may know.

Try renaming one of the .exes, might work :s

^^^^^^^^^

Not a bad idea, although wouldn't that mess certain things up? mods and such I.E LC Mod or anything that runs directly off of said exe.

Make 2 different user accounts or something on you're windows. I did it for my server in SA-MP and leave 19+ accounts on it at the same time

That works but it's a lot of work.

The person you need is Dannye.

Yeah and require a better PC to run them all on seperate account's rather than just 1. So I would like to know how to do this too. Go on Dannye, do something godlike >=D

I'm probably wrong (I don't even have VC anymore ) but isnt there a .dll file that both VC and SA use? Maybe it could be related to that.

Aries · « **Reply #13 on:** March 24, 2008, 09:14:08 AM »

I can run VC and SA, jsut not VC and LC... I think
