Vadim Censor Patch

Attention!!!Before leaving a comment or rating a file -read the description. If you are not interested in this mod and you don’t need it in any form, then you can simply skip it, as you do with hundreds of other files. So, let's get started...

UPD 05/05/2024:At the request of users, I updated the patch and added a file to the archive that replaces the painting with Candy Sachs in houses for saving with one of the unused still life paintings.

Vadim Censor Patchis a complex modification that replaces and limits “certain” content of the game, without turning it into the likes of various inadequate “super-censorships” in the style of Rockstar censorship for Japan (where all civilian enemies are hidden members of the Ballas gang) and alternative similar ones .

Back in the 2000s, I got acquainted with GTA SA in exactly the same way and, in general, I never saw any problems with it. Another thing is that her parents or any other people could see problems in her, who could suddenly arise at the most inopportune moment behind your back. In general, I was somehow always lucky not to go through certain missions at such moments, not to enter a cheat code on the “magnet for girls” at this time, or to be in the wrong places, thanks to which no interesting situations arose. However, much later I came across a video on YouTube about GTA loading screens when parents are nearby (you can search for “Loading screen in GTA when parents are nearby”), and then I also read the comments there. It’s also worth mentioning that I had already made a prototype of this patch in a much less formalized form much earlier for my nephews, whom I also decided to introduce to the classics at an early age. I think that most of the players also have a similar situation and personal space is extremely limited, at best the size of a private house, not to mention apartments.

As a result, all this prompted me to create this kind of censorship patch. Such a patch that would not turn the game into a “stump”, removing everything and everyone from it, and also changing its meaning. The main goal of my patch was precisely to limit/hide various content that could cause an ambiguous reaction from everyone who likes to come to you at the most inopportune moment.
At the same time, Vadim Censor Patch has quite flexible settings, since I put almost every element of it into separate folders and described the purpose of each element, so that any player, at his own discretion, can set for himself the level of censorship that he considers necessary. The instructions, in the corresponding paragraph, describe in great detail each of these elements and the procedure for installing them.

Now let's move on to the most important thing - what exactly does this patch do? It replaces most of the textures of adult shops (outside, inside and even in unused brothels), some "special" weapons, most explicit skins (including those that can be used after installing hot coffee), some models, loading screens and other more small things. With this patch you can also install a lightweight audio folder, where pedestrians have no sounds (correspondingly, girls and courtesans have no sounds), advertising on radio stations with direct subtext (with sounds) is cut out and only csr 103.9 is present from the radio (this radio does not have some “interesting” content). I’ll warn you right away that this is not the fake wasted translation that was made much later (with completely incomprehensible, albeit funny, dialogues and so on), but the original, the same wasted translation that was distributed everywhere on blanks and disks in the two thousandths. I played with him then and I play with him now, I never had any problems in understanding the plot and there were no problems with the game. Again, you can always just turn off the subtitles or even make a censored version of any other translation yourself if you really need it. First of all, I made this patch for my own needs, and hence the choice fell on the wasted translation that was familiar to me.

I didn't include all of this in my patch at once, but made it a separate bonus due to the fact that I myself do not consider all this necessary and causing any problems. Naturally, everyone has different views on games and what should be in them, so just in case, I put these files in the archive as a separate bonus. Who knows, maybe your grandmother will come to live in your one-room apartment, and you are young and want to drive GTA San Andreas without unnecessary comments and judgements, anything can happen :)

In general, my patch changes quite a lot of things and makes GTA SA an easy-to-use game for even 4-year-olds to play. Do you want to give advice or just play with your children in GTA San Andreas, a classic in the gaming industry, but you can’t because of the large amount of obscenity? This patch solves this problem. Are you not very old and you just want to quietly play GTA SA in your free time, but someone is constantly walking behind you and keeping an eye on you? This patch also solves this problem.

And, again, I will repeat the most important thing.I clearly described above for whom and for what specific cases this patch is needed; everyone decides for himself whether he needs this patch or not. First of all, I made it specifically for my own needs, but after seeing a couple of videos on YouTube and realizing that nothing like this had yet been done for GTA SA, I decided to put it in the public domain. Whoever needs it, use it for your health. For those who don't need it, skip this file, as you have already done with a thousand others. In any case, thank you all for your attention.
Enjoy your game!
