Cracked version to Steam version

[【Silent Rosier】]

hello, sorry about my question and my English

I have fnished the game, but I recently buy GTAV
how could I verify my cracked "game files" to steam library, "so I don't need to download the files" (Reason: my connection are so slow)
I have insert the product number to launcher

need help, thank you

i wouldn´t do that... if there are any modified files in your old game data, you might end up with a perma ban or worse... money gone is the least that could happen in that case...

just let it DL a few nights when you are asleep, best advice i could give you

i'll do your advice if my connection won't take approx. a month to download it...
can I copy backed up files from friend..?

This is something from another thread if your friend has a legit Steam install folder and never modded singleplayer it could be used to save you some serious time in your situation.

shortened the download thing to atleast (5-6gb or if you're lucky from 59gb -> 200+ mb)

you can use gta retail for installation if you purchased gta 5 on steam
what i did is after i installed it i copy the contents to steam :
Steam\steamapps\common\Grand Theft Auto V
then i search for the manifest of gta 5 in steam thru some searching

this is the manifest you need
> > appmanifest_271590

after which, i pasted appmanifest_271590 to Steam\steamapps
then you can start installing gta 5 which will download something 200+mb
then try to start gta 5. if it works then grats if it didnt
go to games library > right click on gta 5 on the tab click properties > under the local files tab click verify the integrity of game cache which in my case downloaded some files upto 5gb. which is still better than dl-ing whole 59gb.

then i ask simple questions to both of you
is there alternative ways to reduce my download time that take 7 days, not make me spend more money like buy the game, not wasting time such as ask friends for back up game

or, maybe you two can give me better solution for me even make me quit from game piracy like others who give me solutions to reduce downloading time..?

that's the main idea about why I asked here

You could use the files you already have as long as you have the appmanifest_271950.acf in your SteamApps folder, just place all of the files in your Steam library folder (SteamLibrary > SteamApps > Common > Grand Theft Auto V) and restart Steam.

You can also just use a backup of your friends install, it will use the same method as above, you can also use the DVD version files in exactly the same way.

Gaming is a hobby in which requires personal investments to support. If you can't support your hobby with the expenses required; you reduce, or stop your hobby until you can afford to continue contributing to it.

Slow connections, low income, global location ect. do not give you the excuse, or the right to violate copyright and usage agreements placed by legal teams to protect software. Copyrights are upheld by Interpol, and it is a Federal Offense in the United States to violate the copyright laws enforced by the United States judical system. Since Rockstar, the producers of the software you stole from are located in the United States, you can be charged with violation of the copyright usage agreements in place by Rockstar's legal team, your global location does not exempt you from this action.

There is no excuse for theft. Software piracy is theft. You are stealing to support a hobby that requires personal expense. You damage the industry for those of us who contribute to its growth and prosperity honestly, and cause developers to utilize strict anti-tamper software as a cause of your actions.

I would like a Porsche 918, I can't afford it, does that give me the right to steal the car just because I would like to own it? I'm hungry, I want a steak, does that give me the right to steal? Hopefully you get the point. You don't need games to survive, it is a hobby. Games require several man-hours to create and bring to the public for entertainment, and you are stealing other's hard work because it's easier for you to steal. That's it right there, it's easier...lazy people take the easy way in life, and others usually suffer for it.

it is from piracy to become developer pro, I BUY THE GAME<--this mean I CAN AFFORD MY HOBBY
and you still say imma game pirate, then i would to say thank you
and did you realize that internet connection speed and income was different each country?

then i would to say Thank you to people who help me solve this problem, finally i can play the game
it means you support a guy to change, from thief to be a capable person who can spent his bucks to buy the original game right from (official) developer

end, i wanna say thanks to those 2 people who ain't help me but just barking like Trump

Little late, but if you're in a situation where your internet connection would make a Steam download take unbearably long (or you have an unreasonably low data cap), this is the solution:

1. Get a laptop that runs Windows and has sufficient drive space. It does not need to be capable of running the game.
2. Get outside and find a place with a faster Wi-fi connection. Maybe even pass the laptop to a friend who has a faster home connection so he/she can get it done overnight.
3. Download the game on that faster connection
4. Go home and hook up the laptop to your LAN, or grab an external hard drive - as long as you have some way of copying the Steam files to your main machine, you're good.

Back in college this was exactly what I did to circumvent data caps.

you miss the point that you need steamcmd in combo with a weark laptop, in most cases 32bit system, to download gta5 64bit game.
