gta 5 is a great game just its shit at the same time so many bugs and errors all i want to do is click play and play the game that i paid for

for steam users : after deleting the corrupt rpf files got to steam game properties/ local files/ verify itegrity(...) and let it work a few minutes and cancel ...then steam will update your game automaticaly... worked for me, if you have a lot corrupted rpf's you might have let the verifying process finish completely

[cheese-gskx]

if you've purchased the game from steam:
1.right click gta5
2.properties
3.local files
4.verify integrity of game cache

i get the error only when i play online

[leaske]

I went through the files, and i found out that x64p.rpf was the corrupted one in my system. redownloaded, and i haven't had the issue since. Thank you sir.

For those who bought the dvd version. Make sure you check your rpf files in the update folder. My heist file was corrupt, so I deleted it and let the updater re-download that file. And it works fine without any issues now.

[luchoy]

thx, i found 2 corrupted files and i re-dowloade, now i can play without problem.
better solution tan rockstars ;)

[skinflute]

I dont have internet at the moment for myself. I am using my neighbours wifi which gives me a 200kb download speed. I just finished the download after 9 fucking days and I had th eerror too. on the rockstar page it told me that I had to reinstall the game. So the fucking 9 days will have to start over.... I am getting internet of myself, but due to personal circumstances I couldn't afford I feel so fucked I can cry.... damnit this sucks so bad

[itsme-mjic]

where is the set up tool? you didnt actually show where it is

[jebimajku]

Thank you! My problem was update folder I just replaced it with folder that I use on my other PC since its working there. Liked.

[sumiths]

Thanks dude, the fix worked. Had problem in patchday3ng folder.

[IllusivePrime]

I repaired GTA from the download from the Social Club site, but I'm still getting the wrong checksum code for patchday3ng! I can't get past the Prologue mission! Please, someone help!


I'm reinstalling for the 20th damn time!

AWESOME! my x64r file was corrupt and the game crashed every time I went too far north. given it took literally 50 hours continuous downloading (and preventing hd video streams or playing online games) I didn't want to re-download the whole lot

[Gryphon]

I'm super frustrated with this game. 2 months I've been trying to get it to work, finally took my PC to work to finish downloading the last 4 GB. I come home and play the first mission in story mode and get a zlib error. Check all the rpf files and they all match.

[Godlage]

All of my files were matched but the problem remains :(

[vishnuprasathkv]

bless u mate, thanks a lot for the video and checksum values, I found error mismatch In dlc/heist, so I deleted the file of almost 3 GB, and on launching gta5 it automatically downloaded it and now it works fine

[LEMON]

Thanks man! You're awesome! On gta forum even the dev suggest to redownload all the fucking 60gb and you found the best and fast solution!
Worked for me, i've found one of these file corrupt and i only have to download again 1, 7gb instead the 60gb

[SanaSana-icnk]

So far this fucking game has been all about crashes, deleting shit and re-downloading another couple gigs of so and so.

[jeffreyvanrijswijk]

Deleted around 25GB of dirty files, hope it works.. Nearly an hour left to download 25GB :)

[dhruvtyagi]

Works 100%!!! Thanks alot.. I was so pissed that i couldn't play online after actually buying the game.... Now works perfectly!!
