Please do not share any links. I just want to talk about the game.

I managed to get it running under Bottles, but the controller doesn’t work. It’s basically GTA: Vice City running under the GTA4 engine and honestly- the amount of effort they put into this is insane.

    Did you try it with lutris or heroiclauncher? I just grabbed it myself and will install it tomorrow. I’ll follow your tricks.

    As for the graphics corrupting, is that with the required changes that the F.A.Q. has? Or your own attempts?

    Edit: Bottles seems to be the way to go. Game loads right up after installing

      These are my specific methods to get the game working- separate from the OP. I used Bottles instead of Lutris to sandbox the game.

        Do you have your own copy of GTAIV also installed? I’ll give Bottles a try, but Lutris was only struggling because the mod was unable to find GTAIV

          I think you might be confused, friend. The Vice City Next Gen project is standalone. Meaning it never required GTAIV to function properly. You install it and it’ll work by itself. Treat it as it’s own separate game.
