I am having trouble using San Andreas Mod Installer (SAMI). I bought the RockStar game pack through steam (GTA 1,2,3,4 VC,SA) I had no issues modding GTAVC or GTA3 however when I go to use SAMI with GTASA upon starting SAMI I get an error reading:
"The installation directory for San Andreas could not be detected because it doesn't exist in the registry. Please use the "browse" button to specify the correct directory."
So I click 'ok' and SAMI starts. I choose 'Install Mod" and where the San Andreas Directory path is, it defaults to:
"C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas\"
I choose browse and navigate the path to:
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\grand theft auto san andreas" where my gta-sa.exe is.
And upon clicking detect I get this error message:
"The installation directory for San Andreas could not be detected because it doesn't exist in the registry. Please use the "browse" button to specify the correct directory."
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling GTASA and the error persists. Please help!!!!
