(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I recommend a Mod Sticky's this as it will help alot of noobs out.

I had problems getting mine setup but now I have got it working I will go through this tutorial that shall hopefully help you out.

Requirements
- Kmeaw's Custom Firmware
- GTA IV Retail
- multiman Backup Manager

Download Link for Mods + Backup Manager: MegaUpload

Steps

1. Install Kmeaw's firmware onto your PS3

2. Install the Multiman Manager

3. Backup your GTA IV inside multiman Manager, make sure you have at least 15GB of Disk Space

4. Once completed open Blackb0x ftp Server

5. Open Filezilla and go to dev_hdd0/GAMEZ/

6. There should be a folder in there, open that then PS3_HOME

7. Then USERID

8. Now copy the mods (common.rpf) into that folder, it should overwrite.

9. Restart your PS3 and start MultiMan Manager

10. Press L2 and go down to GTA IV

11. Press X and it should start successfully.

NOTE : DONT UPDATE IT AND WHEN U PRESS LOAD ON MULTIMAN DONT USE AUTO LAUNCH AND BEFORE START GAME GO TO NETWORK SETTINGS AND THEN DISABLE NETWORK CONNECTIONS FOR THEM TO WORK!

on step 7 you have.... overwrite common.prf and ps3.rpf (optional) with modded common.prf and ps3.rpf (optional).

do you mean overwrite common.prf or overwrite ps3.rpf or do you have to do both because you have optional in ()
also does this work on episoads of lc ?

You will need the following:

* Copy of Main .exe from pc version of GTAIV will not supply find it yourself
* SparkIV 0.6.6 download from GTAIV mod sites
* Backup-up version of GTAIV for ps3

1. Copy backup version of GTAIV to external hdd and plug into pc or ftp to pc your choice.

2. Place GTAIV.exe from pc into USRDIR folder from ps3 version of GTAIV.

3. Now open SparkIV and browse to your GTAIV USRDIR folder ps3 version and click ok when main SparkIV window shows up click browse and the folders and files from the ps3 version should show up.

4. Edit files, click save then start the game.



You can't add vehicle mods from PC because it crashes the game, they need converting to the PS3 format .ctd / .cft

PC format is .wtd / wft (re-naming them doesn't work).
