  • In this tutorial I will show you how to downgrade the old and delisted GTA San Andreas Steam version to the 1.0 release and make some improvements to it, step by step.
    These simple instructions will help you to bring all the music back and make you decide what mods you should install (in the tool) to make your version better than anytime before. This will also allow you to install SAMP/MTA.
    ###
    You can also downgrade your 2.0 version and make the same changes to it.

    UPDATE 2020.
    Sadly, the author of this tool abandoned this project and their "Rockstar Nexus" servers seem to be offline from time to time. As a result, the link above will lead you to Google Drive, where I uploaded the "full package" offline version. If you open the tool and see "Error reaching online service", then click "OK". It means that the servers are currently offline. If the servers are offline, the tool won't allow you to install those useful mods I showed you. In this case you will have to download them separately. The links can be found below.

    *Q&A* 2020 UPDATED
    -The tools doesn't work, I get fatal error.
    -The fatal error says that it can't connect to Rockstar Nexus servers. Use the offline version in the description bellow. If it doesn't allow you to download those useful mods I showed you, you can pretty much find them anywhere on the Internet.
    -Why do we need to rename the root folder?
    -If you don't rename the root folder, then eventually the Steam will re-download the files and screw everything up. In other words, we are making a Non-Steam version, which will be protected from unwanted updates. It also means, that you will need to launch the game via the executable the tool made for you.
    -Can I launch my downgraded GTA SA version trough Steam?
    -Yes, you can use an option "ADD A GAME -> Add a Non-Steam Game" in the left bottom corner.
    -What is the point of doing this downgrade if we launch the game bypassing the Steam?
    -Just deal with the fact that the GTA SA Steam version is rubbish. If you want to enjoy the game, you will have to do that.
    -Can I downgrade a pirate version?
    -Are you serious? This tool is made for the official Steam and Retail 2.0 versions. If you are interested in the mods, then download them separately. The links can be found in the description.
    -Why the Steam is updating my San Andreas copy now?
    -I guess, you didn't rename the root folder or you tried to launch the game via Steam.... or the Steam noticed that the folder became empty and is trying to download these missing files. You don't have to use Steam to play your downgraded GTA SA.
    -There are two executables in the root folder now, which one is the right one?
    -Both are identical. One of the was made to avoid launching the game via Steam, but as some people already noticed, eventually the Steam will re-download the files. That's why you have to rename the root folder.
    -What's with the famous "Hot Coffee" content?
    -In order to unlock your beloved HT content, you will have to use the famous unlockers. If you want to enable it, then google how to do it.
    -The tool crashes. HELP!
    -Try to install .NET Framework... vredist.... Honestly, I am not an author of this tool. I have no idea why this tool crashes on your PC. Please, don't contact me. Use forums instead. tinyurl.com/y6t3ol4q
    -My game crashes. Please, help!
    -Please, don't contact me wasting your time. I have no idea why unless it is explained in the video. Use forums instead. tinyurl.com/y6t3ol4q
    -I have blue skies... missing textures with Samp & SkyGFX or any other graphical problem...
    -Try this 3:45 or gtaforums.com/topic/753764-san-andreas-downgrader/?p=1069487147
    -My Polish or any other translation doesn't work. What to do?

      @pedrosilvamusician Před 5 lety +3

      @Becoming Godsize Modders and programmers are not magicians. But programmers from AAA companies are no gods. What they have are different resources. Actually most programmers do mods of their own outside their work space. Blizzard for example has a new feature which is the workshop which was a project of two of their developers that were doing that for fun just to test out wacky things, and when they talked about it in the company they implemented it

    so i just got done following this videos info. and it works, but you have to follow every little detail because when i skipped 1 or 2 things every time i tried to quit the game it had a black screen which forced me to reset my pc because i was stuck there and could not do a thing. so i deleted everything and reinstalled the files and did everything in this video 100% and it works now. in my honest opinion this game looks way better downgraded than upgraded.

Then i searched for a solution in the same topic you made on steam, and you say to delete the gta_sa that will make the game work. Well, it does, but then it just comes back to the steam version. Dear Lord, don't know what to do anymore..

      I used the downgrader to create a new installation folder. It's successfully installed, with the new exe and all the mods I selected from the downgrader. The catch came in the form of the exe opening to the Rockstar Launcher. I can't launch the game outside of the Rockstar Launcher it seems. If I can get the game to work without the launcher, then I'm sure it would work. But for now, I can only use the launcher to open the game. So, we're stuck, until the downgrader is updated I guess?
