Hi folks!

Some time ago I created some LUA mods. Unfortunately after the GTA4 update to version 1.0.7.0 they don't work. "Wie wunderbar" I thought! And no Alice update far and wide...
Yesterday I found a method how it could work! It's so simple, I can't believe it!
I created a small "patch" (it is rather a simple batch)...


IMPORTANT: Please create a backup of your savegames! If possible make a complete copy of the GTA GAME folder!
You can find the savegames here:
Win VISTA: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Rockstar Games\GTA IV (copy this folder completely!)
Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Applicationdata\Rockstar Games\GTA IV (copy this folder completely!)
German XP: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\USERNAME\Lokale Einstellungen\Anwendungsdaten\Rockstar Games\GTA IV (copy this folder completely!)


All necessary files are included:

- Alice v0.9 (LUA) (c) by the one and only Alexander Blade!
- Scripthook (c) by the great Aru!
- XLiveLess (c) by Listener!
- GTAIV.exe v1.0.0.4 (c) by Rockstar!
- 5 old LUA-Mods (c) by me (Skorpro)!

Special Thanx to: Alexander Blade, Aru and Listener for their great work!


THE INSTALLATION IS FOR ADVANCED USERS ONLY!!! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I WILL NOT TAKE ANY LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES!!!


INSTALLATION:
01. Make a backup of your settings and savegames!! (see above)
02. Extract "Small_AlicePatch_by_SKORPRO.zip" in the GTA4 game folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto IV)
03. Start "!Alice Install & Uninstall.bat"
04. Then run the "LaunchGTAIV.exe"
05. Now the game displays an internal error message. The old savegames can not be loaded and GTA starts a "New Game"!
06. Drive Roman home and save the game. Now you can exit the game

09. And that's all!... Put your Alice mods into the Alice folder (search in game folder). There you can find my mods and the mod instructions.
