How To Use Cheats in GTA 4
Activating cheats in *GTA 4* is as simple as making a phone call. Just pull out Niko's phone by pressing Up on the D-pad (or the corresponding key on your keyboard), access the keypad by pressing Up again, and dial the cheat code number. Once dialed, hit Call, and the cheat is activated! Conveniently, once a cheat is entered, it's saved in your phone under "Cheats," allowing you to reactivate it easily without redialing.
Is There a Money Cheat in GTA 4?
Surprisingly, *GTA 4* does not feature a direct money cheat. To amass wealth, you'll need to engage in missions, side missions, and other in-game jobs.
Cheats Disable Achievements and Trophies
Using cheat codes in *GTA 4* comes with a significant caveat: it disables achievements on Xbox and PC, and trophies on PS3 for the current play session. Once a cheat is activated, no new achievements or trophies can be earned until you restart the game.
How To Re-Enable Achievements/Trophies
If you've used cheats and want to unlock achievements or trophies again, it's straightforward. Just save your game, close *GTA 4*, and restart it without using any cheats. Achievements and trophies will function normally in the new session.
Modding in GTA 4
While cheats add fun to the game, mods can elevate your experience to new heights, offering endless new content. Modding can be tricky, especially for older games like *GTA 4*. Here's a quick guide to get you started:
Step 1: Prepare Your Game
- Back up your game files to avoid any potential issues.
- Ensure *GTA 4* is updated to the latest version.
Step 2: Install Script Hook
Most *GTA 4* mods require Script Hook to function. Here’s how to set it up:
- Download Script Hook for *GTA 4* from GTAinside.com.
- Extract the downloaded files.
- Copy the Script Hook files into your *GTA 4* directory (where the GTAIV.exe file is located).
Step 3: Download Mods
Explore and select mods that catch your interest from sites like **GTAInside**, **GTAForums**, and **Nexus Mods**. Download the mod files and follow the provided instructions, typically involving copying files into your *GTA 4* folder.
Note: Always ensure the mods you download are safe and reputable.
Step 4: Launch and Enjoy
Launch the game. If the mod is installed correctly, it should load automatically. Some mods may require specific key combinations to activate, so refer to the mod's description for details.
And that's your complete guide to *GTA 4* cheat codes and modding. *GTA 4 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.*
