During typical installations of GTA: Episodes From Liberty City PC, users that have an active Internet connection will be prompted to perform an 'Online Activation' of the game. 'Activation' is a mandatory process for all installations of GTA: Episodes From Liberty City PC, regardless of format.
During the initial 'launch window' of GTA: Episodes From Liberty City PC, users may also need to perform a 'Date Check' to make sure they have the final game code on their PC, BEFORE they can perform the 'Activation' process.
In cases where an 'Online Activation' cannot be performed, one or more conditions may be prohibiting this (see below), and 'Manual Activation' will need to be performed. These conditions may also prohibit the 'Date Check' process from working, and this process will need to be 'Manually' performed to play the game as well.
If you can access the Internet externally (friend's house, Internet café, etc.), you can perform steps needed to complete an 'offline activation' of the game. This process will be explained in greater detail below.
Manually activating your game (also called 'offline activation'), using a different computer with Internet access, is a three-step process.
Note: To complete this process, you will need a USB drive (thumb drive), a write-able disc and disc burner, or some other portable storage device onto which you can save this data. The 'GTAEFLCPC_OfflineInstaller.zip' is approximately 10 MB in size, so please make sure to have at least this much room on your storage device for it.
Also, please make sure the computer you will be using to download this file also allows for data to be copied onto an attached portable storage device, or to be burned onto optical discs BEFORE you continue this process.
After the installation process, the release date check failed, indicated by the following error message:
To perform a manual activation, the 'Manual Activation' button needs to be clicked.
You will now need to collect the following information in order to request your 'Unlock Code':
Once your 'Unlock Code' is generated in the field above, make sure to carefully write it down, or 'copy and paste' it into a TXT file and 'Save' it before continuing, so that you can use it to complete the 'activation' process on the computer where the game has been installed.
Next, download the 'GTAEFLCPC_OfflineInstaller.zip' file found at the following , and save it to your portable storage device (for the Russian version please click here):

Once you have received and recorded your 'Unlock Code', AND you have saved the 'GTAEFLCPC_OfflineInstaller.zip' file (that you downloaded above) to a portable storage device, please return to the computer where you installed GTA: Episodes From Liberty City PC.
To complete your 'Activation', follow these steps on the computer where the game was installed (Note: You may need to make sure you have admin rights to finish this process):
