Question
torquative
Hey all
so after folllwing this for quite some time, and having played GTA V on PS3 since it's release - I bit the bullet and purchased a legit retail PC version of the game so I could mod it.
we don't have internet where I live and rely on mobile hotspots and mobile wifi devices to get us by. So I figured paying retail price for a hard copy of the game is a sure fire way to be able to play said game on a pc.
So no sooner do I install all 7 discs worth to find I need to be online to activate (that's fine) ... then 63GB worth of "updates" before I can proceed.
Today I travelled quite some distance to utilise my parents unlimited internet, to find their speeds aren't that great and it will take 8-12 hours to update (plus the multitude of updates the laptop now is also demanding) so it's currently at their place doing its thing overnight.
my question - after all this run around for a game I still haven't been able to play, once it's all updated and happy and lets me actually start a single player off line game - how do I idiot proof it so I won't lose my mods?
I've read I need to periodically log in online for it to verify the install, and it will then proceed to overwrite the mods as it identifies them as corrupt / incorrect files. Is this true ?
essentially I don't want to Have spend the past 2 days and countless hours to mod a game that will un do all this work when I go to play it again in a weeks time
i wont have my laptop back until later in the week now due to work etc so I don't even know if this stupid update has worked.
cheers
matt

I don't have retail, but I think this video by Albo1125 shows how to block the constant updates on retail version:
