twizee Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hi I am having problems deleting files from the gta3.img file with IMG tool 2.0. It keeps giving me this messege; Dir file error! It might be in use... exiting... I am confused because I am not using GTA VC or any of its files within its domain. I also get this message when I try to rename the files; File access denied! I already opened the properties on the gta3.img file and changed it from read only. I have tried getting around this problem by replacing the files, however I get another message saying the replacement file is too big for the origional file. I would very much like advice from somebody who has the ability to solve this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Right click on GTA3.IMG, go into PROPERTIES & make sure READ ONLY is off. I've heard that one before & I think that was the cure. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twizee Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 I checked the file's properties and the read-only option was already off. I tried turning it on and off again, but I still have the same problem when trying to delete files. Once I have tried to delete a file, I get a ' Dir File error! It might be in use ' the window's " File Edit Commands Tools Help" menu at the top becomes unacessable, and at the bottom it says it is deleting 1:1 files, however it stays like that indefinately without changing. Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twizee Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 I figured out the problem by reading in more detail the instructions to modding cars manually. I had to set both gta3.img and gta3.dir files to un-read-only. Hope this helps others with the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
