It shouldn't be a problem that he's in a gang himself, so no I wouldn't have thought he would.

Well done mate, good to have you on the team. BTW, fell free to post those suggestions of yours that you PM'ed me a while back in the new gang forum. I know I didn't agree with all of them but it would be good to see what others thought, especially current gang members.

Did insanely well in the US didn't it? But I haven't read the book, nor have I seen the film. I will see it eventually though.

Well some of them you've stretched them to fit in your sig. Just crop them, don't show the full body, just show from the waist up or something. Or even just their face.

Nice troll. AMD Core2Duo? Nice fake CPU. 1GB RAM? Not planning on playing any games made after 2004 then. 139GB HDD? Not planning on using it much then. EDIT: http://www.emachines.com/products/products...?prod=ET1161-01 Wow. Did you really get this computer for Christmas or something?

What's the error message exactly? And it's likely most of the saves we have here were made with 1.0, so use that. I'll move this to the correct forum when you've sorted the problem out.

Download the manual install version from our database, linked in the first post.

BTW the .NET framework is required by RGSC to run GTA IV, so there's actually no point reminding people they need it since if they're running GTA IV they'll have it anyway

So yeah, get your 360 on a carpeted floor, put a game in and load it up however far it gets. Wrap console in towels/clothes to keep it well insulated. Wait until red lights appear. Phone MS and talk to someone who can't speak English and lives in Pakistan, eventually get replacement sorted out. Wait a few weeks for new console. Use a hairdryer or something to add heat to it or something. Meanwhile, go back to playing on your PS triple.

Overheat it so you can just get a replacement from MS for free. Did you move it while the disc was inside and turned on? That's one of the worst things you can do on any console.

TGTAP would like to wish all our visitors a Merry Christmas and happy new year! Hope you're all enjoying the holiday season, I would do one of the infamous "don't drink and drive" safety speeches but this is a GTA fansite, none of us even care do we!? Plus it's not my style . Rockstar are also celebrating the Christmas period with the release of some cool new wallpapers and screensavers, Celestial Deities and Rockstar Monolith, check them out over at their 2008 winter wallpaper collection. Have a good one! Psst. Look out for our brand new design going live on new year's day!

A lot of progress is being made in terms of where we're getting in modding GTA IV on a large scale. Numerous talented programmers in the community are busy creating some excellent tools to aid us in modifying the game to our heart's content. This post is essentially a round up of some of the recent developments. SparkIV SparkIV is a very promising IMG/RPF archive viewer and editor being created by aru. It's still heavily in public beta stages but already very powerful. Not all features are finished yet and there may be bugs, but it's looking like this is going to be the main successor to the GTA3 era's famous IMG Tool. Download SparkIV. Alice Alexander Blade, whose name you may recognise from the likes of Sanny Builder and CLEO, has started work on a new scripting project for GTA IV entitled Alice. In similar fashion to CLEO, Alice allows you to create scripts for GTA IV in a programming language called LUA, the download itself contains three examples including a Superman (God Mode) script, save anywhere, and the ability to view/read co-ordinates. Since Alice has just been released we don't have any mods available for it yet, though we're sure it's popularity is only going to increase over time. Download Alice. Tools by CoMPMStR CoMPMStR has uploaded a whole suite of useful tools to our database. His easy to use editors for GTA IV include one for handling, weapons, vehicle colors, vehicle groups, ped personality and a mod assistant. There's bound to be a number of you looking for at least one of these tools, hope they come in handy for you. Hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas holidays, we'll have more updates for you regarding the website in the next few days.

Lol it's just a joke forum which we can use to test stuff out, it'll be gone soon anyway.

Well now I know there's at least 2 of you wanting to submit I'll wait for you, but can't leave it too long obviously.

I dunno I still haven't submitted mine yet and I'm planning on entering it. So at least until then, maybe at the end of this week.

IE is the worst browser for porn since it's so insecure and if you don't go to reputable sites you're bound to get viruses. Firefox with good extensions, or Safari, are easily the best porn browsers.

Yes you'll still be able to play as Niko. I wouldn't have thought they will add any more hidden packages and stuff, since there's no new island or anything.

Hmm yeah, got one earlier and now it's not on Xbox.com. Guess some sync issues just started today. I presume today is when it started for you guys as well or has this been happening all the time?

Yeah, it'll be based on TGTAP v4. We're not gonna bother reskinning the current forum software as it'll be a waste of time seeing as how soon IPB3 will be out, couple of months I reckon at the most.

The first beta version of IPB3 is now out. Since it's still beta and VERY buggy I've just set one up to fuck around on really. Once the final version is release we'll get it installed alongside this one, if it all works, we'll upgrade etc. But that's at least a month or so away. Anyway, IPB3 offers a lot of new features, and especially tons more on the admin side, which I know won't concern you but it's cool anyway. For those of you who want to familiarise yourself with what's new and how stuff works, head on over to http://www.chrisjp.net/ipb3beta and register. Feel free to make test posts and do random things, there's not actually any rules there and it won't be moderated (except when we want to test out stuff). Oh also, for those of you who are retarded, the whole 'fansite' thing is a joke Obviously. We're just testing you know Try the new IPB

That's most likely a sync issue with the LIVE servers. Try signing out while playing and sign back in again.

Of course it loads quicker, that's the whole point, and the ONLY reason why you would do it. Oh and it's quieter. Two reasons to do it. What else were you expecting exactly?
