Alright, so, I installed the Steam version and used
this to downgrade the v3 .exe to v1.0 I copy-pasted over the model and music files and it starts up fine,
but even in XP SP2 compatibility mod it still crashes right as the first cutscene starts. Sorry if this was already answered, but do you know a fix for it?Just kidding. I neglected to put in the core files. I still have a problem, though. Now when I start a new game it just closes entirely, instead of freezing. The error log reads:
GTA:SA Crashed, Debug Info Follows:

I also saw somebody else had a similar problem, but I already have trafic.txd in /models/txd. Removing it doesn't fix the problem, it just makes it freeze instead of crash when I Start a new game. If you need it, I have W7 64-bit, a 6850, and a 2500k.
