Title: gta3.img
Post by: $mooth on April 27, 2012, 21:29
Hi, i installed some mods, trucks and trailers with IMG tool.
I had a backup. I tried to change everything back, but the mods are still there.
I even downloaded the_hobo's gta3.img and replaced the other one (GTA San Andreas/models) but the mods are still there when i enter the game.

Reason i wanna go back to the original is cuz i got alot of lag with these mods.

If anyone have a solution for it i would be glad. :)

Did you use SAMI to install the mods?

You can try deleting every GTA SA file from your computer and then reinstall all of GTA SA.
If someone else knows a better way they can post below. This is just how I'd fix it

make sure you have deleted gta3.img before placing hobos one in there, do not simply overwrite it
As you were using img tool to replace the files, you have to completely remove this file and replace it. Nothing else should have been effected so it shouldnt require a re-install

You have more than one folder of GTA SA?

If not,
then open IMG tool, delete those txd/dff files from GTA3.img completely and then save.

After that add default ones back. Do not replace. Should work.

I've reinstalled the game, the mods are still there. I deleted the whole san andreas b4 i reinstalled it.
I logged on the mods are still there.

I've even deleted, and moved the gta3.img now, i does NOT exist in models anymore strange enough i can still enter san andres / cvt and the mods are still there, as i said even when i dont have the gta3.img

Can't You read?

Download gta3.img from google, replace it in 'Models' and mod should be gone. The original gta3.img is ~928MB so if You see size similiar to this download it, it means that the game is clean.

And i've downloaded a correct gta3.img. Still dont work!

It runs without gta3.img? You have to have two different GTA SA directories. Make sure youre using the correct one with SAMP.

No Strato, I can't read. I'm a hobo :P

dont start from a shortcut, go to the directory and then see.

Deff: Tried your idea, still got the mods on! :O

Took some prints.
Where i got the game installed at harddrive c (the other one only got pictures/movies on it)

Even if i delete the gta3.img, or reinstall or download a new one (correctly working one) i still got the mods on the trailers and trucks.

And i've checked and searched on the computer for another place where gta3.img/ san andreas could be installed, but i only got one installed om my computer and that one is on these prints.

I gonna try a last this, set back my computer a few days and see if that works!

UPDATE: Tried it, my computer only had a push back to  2012-04-26 01:07pm
and it DIDNT work. Mods still there!

P.s. if someone comes to a solution which would result in a fix to my problem, i'll buy you a coffee lol   :itroll:

In your screens that gta.img hasn't been modified at all. If you replaced it with mine it should have a much more recent date. Go into that folder and open SAMP from there. Do not use a shortcut to open SAMP. Do not open SAMP from your desktop

Post by: $mooth on April 29, 2012, 11:12
It didnt work, when i downloaded you gta3.img the size of it was 918mb, BUT when i hover the mouse over it it says 896mb.

I'll record this, so you can see the ways i'm trying to fix this and upload it on youtube!

Or could fix it by adding the original txd and dff for linerunner and the trailers.
So if someone could get me the txd and dff for linerunner and all the trailers i would be glad :)
