Activating cheats is as simple as making a call. Access Niko's phone (Up on the D-pad or equivalent key), open the keypad (Up again), dial the code, and press Call. Activated cheats are saved under "Cheats" in the phone menu for easy reactivation.
Important Note on Achievements/Trophies:
Using cheats disables achievements (Xbox, PC) and trophies (PS3) for the current session. To re-enable them, save, close GTA 4, and restart without using cheats. Achievement/trophy functionality will resume normally.
Modding GTA 4:
While cheats enhance gameplay, modding takes it to another level. However, modding older games can be challenging. Here's a quick guide:
Step 1: Game Preparation: Back up your game files and ensure GTA 4 is updated.
Step 2: Script Hook Installation: Download Script Hook from GTAinside.com, extract the files, and copy them into your GTA 4 directory.
Step 3: Mod Download: Explore reputable sites like GTAInside, GTAForums, and Nexus Mods. Download and follow the mod's installation instructions. Always verify the safety of downloaded mods.
Step 4: Launch and Enjoy: Start the game; mods should load automatically. Check the mod description for activation instructions if needed.
GTA 4 is available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
