A Complete Guide to Fixing Vice City Nextgen Edition.
Hello. I noticed that a lot of people are having various problems playing this mod, starting with startup problems and going through various crashes or problems with specific missions, I decided to write a guide that might help most of you. I hope so, because the mod is really on a very good level.
START-UP PROBLEMS
1. The most common problem is Securom Error. I think most already know how to fix it, but for potential new players I will mention that you need to install the files from the Redist folder. The folder in question is the folder that is located in the “GTAVCNE.EN.RU.Repack” folder. Just in case, install it as Administrator.
2. If you have installed, but the game displays error 07xc000007b this time, you need to download the files from this link and paste them into the folder with the installed game.

These two solutions will ensure that the game will definitely turn on without a problem.
GAMEPLAY & CRASH PROBLEM
Remember that if you get a Chainsaw, get rid of it at the first better opportunity. It may cause unnecessary problems in the future, and it's not much fun to use anyway in this mod.
1. In the folder with the game you have a file “commandline”. Copy the following lines into it:
-norestrictions
-nomemrestrict
-novblank
-noprecache
-frameLimit 60
-refreshrate 60
-availablevidmem 8000
2. In the game settings you have 3 sliders to move. Set them like this and it will completely negate the occurrence of crashes with the exception of 2 missions, which I will discuss shortly.
This will allow the game to be as light as possible, but it does not make it any less impressive.
MISSIONS CRASHES
This morning I wrote a post myself about the Cuban mission and the Cortez mission, the only two missions that have an obvious problem with crashes, but fortunately to both I found an effective solution.
1. Cannon Fodder
It is recommended to disable ENB. You can do it in the options in Launcher. Disabling Definition in Games Settings. And will stop using Zoom altogether. I also recommend not using AR weapons. At first, I recommended getting rid of the Mechanical Saw because I once got a game crash due to accidentally taking it out.
This should fully enable you to complete this mission. It helped me.
2. All Hands on Deck!
I did a few things, but I will emphasize that in this case I did not turn off the ENB, so you can still enjoy a great atmosphere. I tried with ENB turned off, but it has no effect on this mission.
I did 3 things. First, as a precaution, I changed all graphics settings to Low. Secondly, in the original “commandline” I changed the “frameLimit” line from 60 to 28. Third, I stopped using Zoom completely in all weapons. As a result, I was able to complete this mission without any problems.
I think these are all the problems, but if you have noticed anything else, please write. I will try to help. I think everyone should be able to play and complete this very ambitious fan project as smoothly as possible.
