Version 2.0 > 1.0 Patched/ New and Old Saved Games Corrupted

[the3rdgerman]

I'm new to this forum but I've modded my GTA SA before. About half a year ago I had to reinstall Windows after this reinstall I had to install GTA SA back onto here. After I did everything went fine, the game worked 100%. Recently I wanted to downgrade (patch) my game to 1.0 so I could install mods onto it once again as well as play the game in windowed mode. To my surprise after I patched it, I ran the game. I went to load my saved game from 2.0 and it was corrupted, I was aware that may happen. I continued with the game, beat the first mission, and went to save. It "saved" well so I thought. I went to load it again and it was a Corrupted Save File. I repeated this process 6-7 times and still no luck. If anyone has had this issue before or can offer a way to fix this that'd be great.

Thank You

Nevermind my issue was fixed thanks to a friend who made up a few files.

If anyone else has this issue here they are.

Simple Steps should have you back up and running with 1.0 fully moddable.

will that file also update the save games

Sadly it won't, so you'll have to start from scratch. However 100% savegames and mission - progressive savegames can be downloaded pretty easily from the net.

On a side note, I believe there's a site solely dedicated to GTA savegames, so you could try that out.

I'd post the link here, but I can't remember what it is.

When in doubt, Google it.

I hope you come back to this site. After installing the save patch I couldn't save my games. It said the save file was missing. Any help with that.
