LU launches singleplayer
« on: March 04, 2013, 07:24:06 pm »
Everytime I attempt to connect to server, the singleplayer launches instead of LU. I've searched forums to find some resolutions, but none of those worked for me. I have Win 7 64 Bit, but LU worked on my previous notebook with Win 7 64 Bit. Also, the LU client worked on my new notebook the first day I installed LU and GTAIII, now, after a week, it doesn't work anymore and opens singleplayer.

I've tried (and none of these worked):
- Running the program as administrator
- Creating new account in Win
- Running the program in compatibility for: Win 98, Win 2000, Win XP SP2, Win XP SP3, Win Vista
- Reinstalling game and client
- Copying the game directory and GTA 3 User Files from my previous notebook (where LU client worked properly)

My GTAIII is installed in D:/Rockstar Games/GTAIII, I've installed LU client in this folder too. GTAIII Directory in LU client is set properly.

Thanks in advance for your advices and help.

Try path without space
also files Mp3dec.asi, cleo.asi, d3d8.dll, d3d9.dll can do that

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunatelly none of these worked either. I don't have any mods installed and d3d8.dll or d3d9.dll are not in the GTAIII folder. I don't know what else I should try.

Thanks, I've downloaded it and copied to GTAIII folder and overwritten the original gta3.exe, but neither this worked.

Any idea please? I can't connect to any server. I really don't know how to resolve this, I believe I've tried everything.

//I also think that this problem might be caused by uninstalling GTA IV few days ago. Is it possible it uninstalled also some files needed for LU, for example DirectX?

Yes, I have the lu.txd files and also other files. I also copied the GTAIII directory from my previous notebook and it didn't work. So I assume there must be some files missing in Windows. I've installed DirextX 9.0c and NET Framework 4 but neither this did help.

You don't have to reinstall your OS if LU wont run.
Make sure you have the right gta3 version, and that LU is pointing to the right directory.

Right click on the shortcut to Liberty Unleashed. Change the "Start in" folder to your GTA III installation folder, or to nothing at all.

Thanks for your replies, but unfortunatelly, this problem is still unresolved.

I have 1.1 patch installed and GTAIII directory is set properly in client.

I have tried this too. Originally, there was GTAIII folder in "Start in", I have now tried to change it to empty value, but LU still opens singleplayer.

Have you tried changing it back to the GTA III folder?

It works fine in 64-Bit copies of Windows. Something else is causing this bug. It happens in 32-Bit versions too.

That's strange, because i just installed fresh clean OS. Maybe some of system components are missing, who knows.

This particular bug is a known issue that affects users randomly. We still aren't sure why it happens, but I know VRocker has been working tirelessly trying to figure it out so it will be fixed.

Have you tried the previously-mentioned fixes yet?

I tried everything from this forum and google, even with different game distributives - still nothing, but everything works perfect with same x86 OS.
