In fact, a lot of CLEO scripts are used to alter game memory, however ASI plugins are USUALLY preferred when doing more complex stuff. - CLEO 4 has been updated to CLEO 5, and it no longer ships with a "scripts" folder. This isn't a big deal, simply create a new folder in your game folder (where gta_sa.exe is) called "scripts". - CLEO 4 has been updated to CLEO 5, and it no longer ships with a "vorbisHooked.dll" file, you no longer need this file. So when installing CLEO, you should only extract the "cleo" folder, "bass.dll" and "CLEO.asi". - At 33:26 - I recommend changing streaming memory to 512MB. Unfortunately this seems to be too low for some people, so my new recommendation is 1024MB (1GB). ----- Enjoy GTA modding videos?

There is a new version of ultimate Asi loader do we now use it over 4.68?

@@BygoneT Sorry I should've specified in the video. It doesn't really matter, when Ultimate ASI Loader gets an update, it's usually just for additional game support as far as I know. Just download whatever the latest version is and forget about it once installed.

@@TJGM Hm, ok, just as a note I followed every other step perfectly, the only difference being I used the 5.0 version now available and the rest of the mods simply didn't work. I could do a quick test by replacing only the asi loader tomorrow and let you know how it goes, I'm out of juice for the day 🤣, It took me a while to figure put the problem and it made my stream a bit problematic, but the guide itself is so good even my 12 year old self couldn't have misunderstood. Love the work you put in, I even joined the discord. The attention to detail and explanation, even showing the page as you download is what sells it to a noob like me. Thank you again.

@@BygoneT Strange. Is your game downgraded and did you make sure it was the correct version of Ultimate ASI Loader? Also thank you! It means a lot.

I cannot praise you enough for this. I've been trying for literally months to mod the RGL version and up until now, I straight up just assumed it wasn't compatible with mods. Saying you've helped a ton is a huge understatement. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

A thing which a lot of tutorials miss and I'm really happy you show is you actually showing what to click for downloads rather than just saying "download this from the link." Helps to make sure you download the correct file while also avoiding malware. Thanks man!!

Great work with this mate. I'm glad that even with Definitive Edition out there is someone equipping others with the knowledge to experience the hard work modders have done over the years firsthand,

Thank you for this entire guide. I never got around to modding any of the older GTA titles, there's surprisingly quite a lot you need to know beforehand! Thanks again!

holy moly there is so much more than modding, very educative, thanks a lot! same thing goes for other videos, covering and explaining small details such as light or textures etc., I am glad that I found your channel!

You are the best guy on planet earth when it comes to tutorials of modding gta games

I couldn't find a way to play with quality, but you've been doing an excellent job, thank you very much for all the attention dedicated to helping others, and still being very informative, in addition to the tutorial it's a great lesson, thank you very much and a big hug from Brazil.

Thanks for the kind words!

You are a beast for breaking all of this down, its awesome to learn some modding and have fun with it at the same time

Appreciate this series. Ive been wanting to mod GTA SA since i was a kid and seen fast and furious cars and all kind of things in the pc modded version of the game. Very simple and not overwhelming guide.

I love you, this whole series is fantastic

Best modding guide so far, not many "san andreas" modders know about limit adjuster, etc. and they never tell me how to downgrade except you! Thank you, you saved me from the treachoreas hell of modding in GTA San Andreas lol.

Easily the best guide on San Andreas modding, this is awesome

I think my previous modding adventures of Elder scrolls Skyrim has made this process a lot easier since my game folder is outside programs

Thank you so much!! I`m so happy seeing GTA SA community so alive after all these years. Looking forward to more of your videos :)

I came here to play mods in GTASA but i learned some software moding, this is so great

You're a certified grove street families member for these videos... I used to use the old program that would do everything automatically for you, but since that service shut down, and i've gotten a new computer this is perfect, and i have a deeper understanding now!

Thanks for the tutorial, as of right now im simply replaying gta sa and all i wanted was the essential fixes for the rockstar launcher, but if i ever feel like getting more in depth with mods ill watch the other guides. 👍

Everything Worked Perfectly! Thank you so MUCHHH!!

Thanks for making this dude. I was just watching your older mod guide.

No problem! I'd definitely recommend starting again with this one as it's much more in-depth and will make you a much better modder.

okay, I comment here too: you are an unsung hero :) We cannot thank you enough for putting this series together; a lot of work for the love of this gem, god bless you! I myslef never modded SA because it was way too complicated and the game by itlsef is still the best game ever, but with your help I can finally do it. Also: I checked the torrent site we have in my country since like 2004 (edit:2005) and still today the number one downloaded game is SA, of course :) and a personal anecdote: when SA came out and my friend gave it to me to try I was like "meh" while installing because I thought new games at that time were improving so much and thought this will be just an average game for some unknown reason. Well, biggest and best surprise in my life. I cannot wait to get this working hopefully tomorrow, and I am excited like a child again :D thank you so much again!

These videos are extremely helpful, easy to follow and explains all the details to the bare-bones. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make these and share them Liked and subscribed! ❤

Man you are living legend everything explained to little details i came back to gta sa and wanted to have fun with modes thanks for all explainations ☺

I'm using this guide to remake my downgraded San Andreas that stopped working recently. Good news is my saves from the old downgrade work on the new one!!

Thank you You've helped very much! now I can install mods instead of messing up.

Thank you, Now i understand more about this game.

bro i cant tell you how happy i am because you showed how to do large adress it was so hard but thank you now i can actually use rosa and multiple mods with gta v graphics without it crashing or loosing textures!

Ay my man, you are an absolute gigachad for keeping up to date on these. I love you daddy

A lot has changed since I played SA-MP in 2009-12. As I used a pirated copy at that time I never had any issue with the mouse or other glitches with downgrading to 1.0. Maybe the cracked version was fixed in some way or another.

great work bruh! Thanks much

Thankyou soo much bro this video was really very helpful

Dude I'm probably never going to completely mod San Andreas but this series is fucking fantastic regardless.

Holy shit this is in depth! Very impressive TJGM, keep up the good work, man. I'm sorry to ask this as I don't want you to experience any further stress from making videos but is it a possibility you'll make an ultimate modding guide for all GTA games? If so, please take your time your mental health is more important than further satisfying impatient viewers.

Thank you! The next episode will be the longest and will include a deep dive into Modloader and all of the games file types. I've been thinking about more guides. I think I'll do III/VC in the future, kinda similar to this, but not as in-depth. The SA guide can be used as a base and people can watch this first as it is the most complicated, then work down to the III/VC guides. As for IV/V, I'm not too sure. IV is getting some exciting new mods in the future though and it will change how we install mods in that game, so I might cover that with a guide.

Thank you! This guide doesn't cover controller support because people ALWAYS mess up their controllers with third party software and not everyone has a controller to follow along. If you follow this guide completely, at the end search for a mod called GInput. This adds full controller support to the game, install it the way the mod tells you too. :)

Damn...this's one of the most dummy proof tutorial out there...Much love G

This video is so helpful thank you 🙏

Hi TGJM, i have followed ur guide and made my mods work perfectly. Btw, do u still need to update your cleo to get ur mods working if ever a new cleo update comes?

32:26 That's how gta sa looked with the disc scratched up on ps2 in my childhood💀. Like the world stop loading and the textures looked all funky like that lol.

I was about to start complaining about the asi loader not functioning till I reinstalled it, turns out my copy of the game (pirated) replaced the modded vorbisFile with the one from 2003, requiring me to reinstall it. When I did all of the essential mods you've recommended began functioning. Thanks for such an informative video!

Hello TJMG, excellent tutorial, you have no idea how much it has helped me, I only have one question, set 512 streaming memory in open limit adjustet as you said, but the mods: improved streaming and mixsets also ask to set a number for streaming memory, so number Should I put those mods, the same number that I put in Open limit adjuster?

Awesome guide!!! I enjoyed the video despite already having a heavily modded instance!! There's a little detail that i cannot figure out though How can I PERMANENTLY disable the F92LA donation window that pops up each time the game is launched? Ty!!!!

I didnt change any values at all, even after i changed the Stream Memory to 512. Do you know any solutions? (yes i have a pretty low spec pc)

bro thanks for everything

Thanks for the great guide! If people are having trouble with ASI Loader "Unable to load CLEO.asi Error:5", I wold recommend downloading and using Cleo 4.4 and not v5 since its still in alpha and its having some problems. Also CLEO 5 is getting detected as a Trojan Virus by Kaspersky and others.

hmmm, open limit adjuster... this might affect dyom's limitations, i figured out that adding 10-20 large objects can crash the game depending on where your character is currently placed, limit adjust should fix the crashes, only problem is other people have to install it when they play my missions

Hey, do you recommend framerate vigilante ? It seems to resolve a bunch of issues and allows you to play the game in 60fps. With fps limiter on, the game still runs at 60fps. It's weird but for some reason even with this mod installed, having your frame limiter off makes you not be able to zoom in our out while looking at the map. What do you think about it ?

Hello! I'm new to modding in GTA, your video helped me a lot! But I seem to have a problem, whenever I start a new game or play some of my saved games, it crashes. It happened when I installed the Cleo thing. I really hope you can help me fix it. Thanks a lot!

Great video, thanks! Does anybody know how to solve the problem with not loading textures of modded cars/bikes in the game? They are just white... I've created a sub-folder inside the modloader and put all the .dff and .txd files inside. Do i miss anything? Thanks guys.

Hi, i've done everything you showed up in this video, step by step, and in the end when i installed open limit adjuster and changed the number, when i installed all the mods, my gta_se.exe stopped working.

Edit: nevermind, i went to settings in the gta_sa exe and click on the compatibily, enabling it to windonws xp (service pack 2) and it worked. (Sorry for my bad english)

Sir, I've a query. I had all these steps completed with asi loader, modloader, cleo installed and working properly. I was having some mods in my modlaoder folder and in scripts folder. I uninstalled SAMP r2 and SAMP Addon 2.6 then again installed SAMP r5 and SAMP Addon 2.6. Now, Im in doubt that did this step affected my mods/loaders in any way ? i.e SilentPatch(inside modloader). How to verify this. When I pause the game, it is still showing CLEO 4 (3 plugins) Regards, Milo.

Sir, i used cleo version 5 first time. after quitting the game it gives a black screen with a written version at the bottom left corner. "cleo v5" and after that i had to start from the beginning again and installed version 4.

I am trying to convert the classic AI Police helicopters, used in both GTA 3 and Vice City when you reach 3 starts in the respective games, I'm struggling with how can I even start to actually implement the systems of these helicopters on GTA SA, (I already have the source of the original script used to activate them in GTA 3 and VC)

How come whenever I extract the open limit adjuster folder to my mod loader folder the open limit folder just shows up empty ?

Can I install both limit adjusters at once

here a another tip if a mod tells you to change xyz thing in Open Limit Adjuster once the text file opens up hit control + f and type in the name the mod is telling you to change and hit enter and it will find it for you without you having to read the whole .ini file on a side note this also work for web browsing and you want to look up something on a webpage faster
