    HOW THE F**K AM I SUPPOSE TO PLAY GTA V (SOCIAL CLUB) VERSION!!!

    When 60GB download was finished it started downloading the game update which was about 400 to 500mb and when it was finished it started installing and suddenly it says that the Installation has failed and I saw no option for retry but on to run the game. Dozens of tries and I only got Black Screen at startup and nothing else! Every time I have to close the game through Task Manager by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL and it says GTA V.exe has stopped working!

    I also googled for a solution and only found the by creating a shortcut on the desktop of the GTAVLauncher and adding "-verify" command at the end of the Target line. I did it and run the launcher and it started Verifying Game Data and downloaded 5gb of files and when it was completed it automatically launched the game and guess what! Black Screen and nothing else!

    I called up my friend he suggested me to download the Update manually but wow R* didn't even bother to release any standalone updates for PC version of GTA V! The Launcher does not download any update at all now... by frustration I went to Pirate site and download Update 5 with Crack both zipped in the file and downloaded it through torrent and opened up the file found the Update that was lying inside the zipped file so I only selected that "Update" folder and extracted in my main GTA V directory which overwrites the file in that Update folder.

    Finally I fired up the GTALauncher and signed in into my Social Club account and this time no Black Screen the game starts successfully mentioning Build 350 Online 1.27 at the bottom of the loading screen. But whenever now I start the Story Mode my game just FREEZES on the loading screen after few seconds and I have to close it manually through Task Manager like every time and it says GTA V exe has stopped working!

    All of my games working absolutely fine in Steam, Uplay and Origin and have no trouble at all but with this Social Club version of GTA V I'm really getting MAD! I have the NVidia 353.06 WHQL drivers installed and everything else like DX, C++ 2008 SP1 but I'm not able to play the F**kin at all! PLEASE HELP!

    Set both exe's to run as admin. I also had to switch ZA to game mode, but I guess you are using Windows Firewall?

    Haven't really played the game for some time. I will post if I remember anything else.

    VC++ Redist 2008 is not the only one, get all just in case - 2005/2008/2010/2012/2013 both x86 and x64

    Edit: VC Redist 2012 is in commonredist folder, and see https://support.rockstargames.com/hc...ation-Download

    I have Steam version

    I have Steam version
    I have installed each and every C++ Redist already my steam installed required versions automatically from many months. Both .exe's you mean Play GTA V and GTAVLauncher?

    Also can you upload your Update file so I can download it? do you have latest update installed?

    Yes, Boogieboy, those two.

    Updated just last night (no idea when it was released), what kind of file do you need? Steam doesn't keep update files somewhere as far as I know.

    The update file is located here:

    X:/Program Files/Rockstar Games/Grand Theft Auto V/update/update.rpf

    The .rpf file is the update file I only pasted it and it's about 320MB approx. I have Update 5 I think the latest is Update 6 or 7

    I have Social Club version

    I need update.rpf file located in the "Update" folder in the main directory but I have the Social Club version

    I'm going to try now by setting both files "Run as Admin".

    Update:

    Well running both as Admin doesn't help either here are the 2 screenshots attached.
