Q: Failed To Find Install Directory (install directory, install dictionary, can’t find game files)

Q: I can’t go through doors (doors locked, door bug, how to enter)

 

A: For new people that are joining, you might find that other people can walk through doors (like at clothes shops, etc) that you can't - you need to do one of the following; delete your SP profile found here C:\Users\User\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles - or download a 100% save game and drop it in there, then remove the old one. This should unlock all single player doors in game that would otherwise be locked.

A: If your game is crashing, delete "C:\RAGEMP\client_resources\play.gta.world_22005" or "C:\RAGEMP\client_resources\51.178.79.228_22005" and restart the game. It'll redownload all our client mods. If you have issues redownloading the files, use the link from #join-us which contains all the files you need
