December 30th, 2017OpenIV 2.9.2
Today, we are releasing OpenIV 2.9.2. This version does not includes new features but contains important changes to provide support for the latest version of Grand Theft Auto V.
Grand Theft Auto V
First time since 2015, we have updated OpenIV.ASI – our plugin, which provides mods support for Grand Theft Auto V. The latest version of GTA V has some non-critical changes in the code, which affected by OpenIV.ASI, and we made similar changes in our code. Without those changes in OpenIV.ASI, your game had crash during loading screen in some very specific scenario, only when you have Simplified Chinese language selected in game. Use ASI Manager to update OpenIV.ASI in your game folder.
General changes, improvements, and fixes
• We fixed an issue where sometimes OpenIV crashes while renaming folders inside archives.
• We fixed an issue where import of texture image with 2×2 sizes was impossible due to infinite loading.
• We fixed an issue where files was not shown in OpenIV after they was drag-and-dropped in game folder using Windows File Explorer.
You can find change log on our bug-tracker here.
UI Localization
We have an instruction how to translate OpenIV into your own language and we are calling for you to do so. You can find the localization guide here on GitHub. This version does not have differences from 2.9.1.

Any ideas why I suddenly can’t reinstall the ASI loader? Uninstalled to try and fix the “ELS lights only flashing on level 3” problem, but when I try to reinstall, I get an “Installation failed, restart OpenIV and try again” message. Restarting OpenIV/PC, even reinstalling OpenIV doesn’t solve anything. Could be related to new update? Worked fine before.

WiNgNuTz make sure no process is uses you game folder, and check your antivirus.

Nice one, a fresh boot and disabled antivirus solved the problem. 🙂

Hmm, neat.
Any chance you guys are still working on OpenCamera 2.0, whatever that is?

Hey, I’ve got the same problem as @WiNgNuTz.
The ASI Manager always says “Installation failed, restart OpenIV and try again”, but restarting OpenIV – also disabling antivirus – doesn’t help. Anybody having an idea? :/

@Niki
OpenIV keeps a copy of ‘dinput8.dll’, ‘openCameraV.asi’ & ‘OpenIV.asi’ here:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\New Technology Studio\Apps\OpenIV\Games\Five\x64\OpenIV.asi
Perhaps try installing them manually? They all go in your main GTA V folder where your GTA V exe is located.

Hey @JonaQ,
thx for your answer. I already tried that,
but then it says that I have to update OpenIV.asi.
Klicking on update leads to the same error as mentioned above.

Build 932 fixed the problem – thanks 🙂

I cannot install it at all… All I get is a runtime error (216 at 0042c08c.
Tried with Compatibilty Mode for Win7 and Admin-Rights.
Operating System is Win10.
Help would be nice.
