I got to be late here.
Please use the downgrade patch on:
D:\PROGRAM FILES\ROCKSTAR\GTA SAN ANDREAS\
not:

D:\PROGRAM FILES\ROCKSTAR\GTA SAN ANDREAS\gta_sa.exe

I need help!
I have installed the downgrader patch many times and it still don't work!

It tells me that " nothing to do. files are already updated". I still am unable to join sa-mp and none of my mods work.
I have read every thread there is on this and nothing seems to work. Please help this lost person.

Downgrades your game to 1.0 so you can play SA-MP.
